Hello Everyone,
I see the forum is adding some fantasy threads here and there and so I thought I would pile in as well! sm_party_box I mostly do historical material of late,but I used to do a lot of Fantasy.I still like it and enjoy painting the stuff as it\'s a very fun way to let ones imagination roam and just be a carefree kid. :sm_pirate_biggrin:
These are some Savage Orc Boar Boyz I did many years ago,but still enjoy looking at their crazy expressions.These are very old school models,but really pack a lot of character into the miniatures.I keep seeing these guys crazily flying across the battlefield screaming and hollering while all the while defying gravity by staying on! :sm_pirate_lol: I hope they give some of you something to laugh about! :sm_pirate_biggrin:

very charm full :sm_pirat_love:

Excellent, Orc Boyz are definitely on my list of upcoming opponents for my Beastmen.
Love the warpaint, and that you\'ve added it to the boars as well. 8)

Ähm, geht\'s noch? 8|

Oldschool :thumbup:
I love it! Theses guys were one of the reasons I startet O&G long long ago. I really love their style and of course the painting.
Especially the warpaintings on the boars are really excellent!
Are the shield designs Freehands or Decals? They fit very well.
Edit (habe ich eben übersehen):
@ WCT:
Sorry aber wenn du so unverschämt wirst und solche Dinge schreibst musst du das hier jetzt auch verkraften.
Mal ganz ehrlich! Sonst gehts gut?
Axebreaker ist schon verdammt lange hier unterwegs, er versteht was wir auf Deutsch schreiben und antwortet auf Englisch weil er Amerikaner ist. Zudem steht niergendswo geschrieben, dass dieses Forum nur die Deutsche Sprache erlauben würde. Im Gegenteil wenn du magst und fähig bist kannst du auch gerne auf Französisch schreiben etc. (würde dann wohl kaum einer antworten weil kaum jemand das verstünde)
Lass sowas in Zukunft bleiben, ernsthaft! ;)

Thank you for the advice,but no.To much on my plate to sweat the small stuff and redo a very old regiment.
PS: Wir sind hier in Deutschland und hier wird deutsch gesprochen.
Why thank you very much and here I was thinking I was on an English Forum and wondering why so many Germans joined this site. :rolleyes:
I would have you know I asked the forum in general a long,long time ago if they minded if I used English so as to spare them my rather pathetic German.99% graciously made me feel welcome and said it was no problem,however to the other 1%(you) I apologize for using English and I hope you have the heart to forgive me.Es tut mir leid,ich hoffe ich darf noch weider english schreibe konnte.As you can see,my grammer is less then desirable.
A special note,I stipulated all forum members are free to ask/answer/comment to me in German or English as I wish them to be as comfortable as I wish to be. ;)
@Antipater
Thank you! :D
And let me say it\'s a joy watching your wonderfully done army develop! :sm_pirate_thumbs1:

Great work. I love the old-school GW stuff. Just painting some models to begin the Mighty Empires Campaign^^

@ Yggdrasil & Everyone
Thank you,I appreciate it! :sm_pirate_biggrin:

They were all done by free hand.I don\'t even know if they had decals similar to this when I did them. :) Yes I\'m old! :sm_pirate_lol: If your interested,my blog has a few more angles of the boar boyz if your looking for shield design ideas. ;)
Cheers

Fantastic! I honor your skills with the brushes :hutab:
The freehands are really nice and they are fitting perfectly.
I love the 5th Edition WFB Minis.
Your blog is nice too.
(I put it in my browser\'s \"favorite\" lists ;) )

A joy to look at!
And the standard is just great. Boy, I wished I could paint that good ...

PS: Wir sind hier in Deutschland und hier wird deutsch gesprochen.
Well, I suppose he was just citing our new foreign minister/secretary of state, who is not very adept at speaking english and said those words at a press conference when addressed by a british news reporter... It doesn\'t get any funnier than this, though.
Very nice miniatures!

Spitzenarbeit, klasse :thumbsup:

[Moderatoren Info Modus an]
WCT wurde von uns per PN verwarnt.
Die unfreundliche Art und der Ton haben hier im Forum selbstverständlich nichts zu suchen.
Da schon einige von euch drauf eingegangen sind löschen wir nicht alles dazugehörige raus.
In diesem Sinne

Hey Christopher,
are there any miniature you do not collect? :D How many painted figures do you have at home? :m_pirate_shock: and are there more beautiful Warhammer Fantasy miniatures you want to show us? :sm_pirate_thumbs1:
-
(...) PS: Wir sind hier in Deutschland und hier wird deutsch gesprochen
war vielleicht ein bisschen sehr Guido :P
Ansonsten - really really nice orcs - makes me want to own some =)

@Everyone
Thank you very much for your support and not just in the figure painting. sm_party_trink
Hey Christopher,
are there any miniature you do not collect? :D
Well,I\'ve been at this since 1991 and so I have amassed a few miniatures along the way. :sm_pirate_lol:
How many painted figures do you have at home? :m_pirate_shock:
I have quite a few when you factor in how long I\'ve been at it,but in the same token you would think I would have even more fully painted. :sm_pirate_blush:
are there more beautiful Warhammer Fantasy miniatures you want to show us? :sm_pirate_thumbs1:
Well I have quite a few I wish to post along down the road,but hopefully you will think they are beautiful.I appreciate the vote of confidence. :sm_pirate_biggrin: As a matter of fact I own Dark Elves,Vampire Counts,Chaos Mortals,Demons and Beastmen,Orcs and Goblins,and Wood Elves if your curious. sm_party_joint
@WCT
Your comment sounded very rude and I responded in kind.The forum largely supported me,(which I\'m very grateful :D )but if you were just joking around then a smile or something similar would clue us in. ;)
My goal and probably most the forum is not to come down on you,but rather let you know your choice of words were not the best.Perhaps if you were curious why I used English then something like\"may I ask why you use English as I\'m curious to know\" or something like that and that would have evoked a completely different reaction.If it was a joke like one member pointed out,then it would have helped to clue me in as I\'m not aware of what everything is said on television.
Anyways,I don\'t want you to feel unwelcome and I would ask you to next time please choose your words a little more carefully so I can give you a nicer response.
So let\'s shake hands and call it a simple misunderstanding.
Thank you for commenting on my thread as I really appreciate the input and I\'m looking forward to more interaction between us and all forum members. :D
@Olaf
PM on the way.
Cheers
Christopher

Well i think the problem is just that in a different topic there was a conversation about the WWII Theme and it\'s forbidden symbols (i think most of you know what i\'m speaking about).
I think that\'s why the most of us (me too) have reacted in this way.
But i think it\'s time to talk about the great painted figures from now on, because the mods and even Diomedes have react on it.
So let us forget it and sm_party_trink
;)
@ Axebreaker:
May i ask why you don\'t have used the same cool basing style you used for the AWI Minis? The Mud would fit very well to the savage look of the orcs!
-
Christopher, wasn\'t that the unit you won the Weiss Blaue Humpen at TTU two years ago.
I know I have seen them before :)
Pretty well done.
Cheers
Olaf

Shit :wacko:
Sorry,This comment was a \'anspielung\' auf Mr Westerwelle and not serious. I thought you would understand this

the orcs!
Thanks,I\'m happy you like the AWI bases. :) The reason The Savage Orcs don\'t have the same bases is I did them many years before I ever started AWI and the idea hadn\'t come to me yet. ;)
My bases have progressed over the years from
-small gravel
-Small gravel and grained grass on a black border(pretty horrible)
-Dark brown Earth with long hair grass
-Dark brown Earth & long hair grass with water effects added on some and not others
-Dark brown Earth & long hair grass with water effects added on some and not others plus bushel grass either by itself or in addition to
-I\'ve also changed my earth tones to match the climate with European staying pretty dark with the tone getting lighter the more dry the climate
Christopher, wasn\'t that the unit you won the Weiss Blaue Humpen at TTU two years ago.
I know I have seen them before :)
Yes indeed Olaf,you did see them,but it was last years TTU.They did win in a way ,however I had another entry that won it\'s category if you remember. ;)
@WCT
Yes,I wish to thank you for taking the time to send me a PM explaining everything. :) Now,that I understand the concept behind the joke it\'s a very clever and funny comment you thought to insert and very relative. :sm_pirate_lol:
Cheers

Take some pictures as I\'d like to see it. :) Perhaps you both should PM the challenge to each other. ;)

You are right, sorry for hijacking your thread...
-
No problem. :) However,I was also serious when I said I would like some pictures of your game as I do like battle reports and if you two get together I would like to see it. :)
Cheers
Christopher
