Orc Artillery

Way back then, even  orcs had some rudimentary knowledge of gunpowder, and after capturing some firearms from the dwarves they made themselves some  blackpowder weapons.

  3. Excellent conversions as usual. I finally did my first head swaps yeasterday and was really pleased with how easy it was. I didn't pin them a la your method, something I may regret later, and had a minor hiccup when the second head ricocheted onto the floor. Just a swap between two Strelets Military Order warriors.

    1. Thanks Sean. The heads going flying ..I know this..especially with hard plastic heads like the orcs...the pin is just pushed into the top..add a bit of pressure and "PING!!" off it goes.

  5. Where would any army be without artillery? I suppose if it blew up in their faces,they would be Black Orcs! Nice work Paul. BB
