D&D: Challenge Update 4


Here we are with another group of models I painted for my son, so he can wow his group when they play D&D next. Although I doubt very much if they will really be wowed. The Orcs are very old from the 80's yet again and the larger monster is a Heroclix model I got dirt cheap in a box from Ebay.


The ogre type model on its own, all I really did was give the model a wash of black to bring out the details.


All slightly different again either by colour or equipment so Tom can use them and tell the difference.
I like these old models, just as well I have another 20 at least!


Finally in this group some more very old greenskins. GW 1980's Goblins. Some of the shields are a bit more modern but they go together OK.


That is the end of the monster section of the challenge. Next we will be looking at the character models.

  1. Nice! I’m sure I’ve got that Mage Knight ogre in a box somewhere too...

  2. Good stuff, the model isn't as bad as I'd imagined when it arrived via Ebay and with a wash over it I'm happy enough with it. Think I have another 3 in the loft :-)

  3. I still adore these old classic models, they looked so innocent compared to the modern stuff.
    While a bit shallow on the details; the ogre does look quite good.

    1. Too true, they really have come on from those years, luckily I have a load of them and my lad isn't fussy :-) Gotta love him

  4. I reckon all those plastic greenskins are 1990s. Old, but not THAT old. If I recall correctly, the goblins were 1993 and the black orcs more recent than that.

    1. I've had them so long Ben I really couldn't be sure, you're approximation sounds good to me. One they definitely aren't is any sort of collectors item :-)
