Hey Joey, Great faction! I'm digging them. My one question for you is what color heads do you use with your Orc army? I like the green but I don't have a head that matches that color. I can see how the goblin army can use the HP heads. Let me know. Again, Great job and I look forward to your future creations! :D

Hi Brian,

Well the green is LEGO's sand green, so the Frankenstein or Yoda heads would do the trick....not to mention the Gamorrean guard (with a little modifying of course.. :wink: )

Regards,

Suggestion for the kite shield design: the bull shield design that has the metal studs around the rim has two logically covered up by the bull's horns. If you look at your shield near the top you'll see the same gap in the stud pattern but without the horns that would take their place, so you might want to add a stud on each side (been down that path myself, which is why I noticed).

:shock:

WOW Those are awesome! I wish LEGO would come up with a faction like that! Too bad there are no dark green capes out to go with your orc general...

If I had a decent printer (which I don't :evil: ) I would print a ton of these!

The thing about Yoda heads is that they look too much like, well, Yoda. :wink: I would use a sand green head, brasso off the printhing, make a cool orc head give a helm and your done. Just an idea.

I know I'm a little late, but I just made a Demon Maw goblin. The torso's colors got switched around so it would look best on a light grey, but other than that its still Joey's design. I think he looks pretty good, what do you guys think?

He does look good. It is too bad there weren't some smaller sets with that goblin head. Of all the molded heads, it is my favorite.
