The more-than-three MusketOrcs

Having seen the awful-but-fun new Three Musketeers movie... Another Mordheim Orc and Goblin Warband begins! I probably won't be doing many henchmen as I'll just use a handful of pirate Orcs....

The More-than-three Musketorcs
Orc for one and one for Orc!

Swashbuckling, hard-drinking and rebellious the more-than-three MusketOrcs fight and argue their way through life like most Orcs… but with a lot more style.

Hogtagnon (Orc Shaman)
The smallest and youngest of the MusketOrcs but the most hot-headed and impetuous, he is always running head-long into a fight he can’t win. Somehow he has never noticed that he is a Shaman and it is his magical powers that get him out of peril more often than not!

Wathos (Orc Boss)
The oldest MusketOrc, he is a swaggering drunk who is a grizzled veteran with a very dark outlook on life, which makes him seem brave to the point of suicidal.

Arrer-miss (Orc Big'Un)
The quiet and thoughtful one: skilled with a blade and armed with an equally sharp wit but he is suspicious and untrusting.

Boarthos (Orc Big'Un)
A greedy and gluttonous but optimistic Orc, he is immensely strong and loyal to the other MusketOrcs but stupid and vain.

Punchitt (Troll)
A lumbering and stupid oaf who is always eager to please Hogtagnon.

Arrer-miss (Orc Big'Un) I still have a lot to do - his back needs tidying-up and he needs some facial hair.

(Coming soon!)

Awesome, More swash to buckle there Kurgan.

COOL! We need Cardinal RichielOrc's Guards to oppose them.

Oooh, I like these! Anything with a feathered hat and baggy pants gets my vote. Great stuff Kurgan.

Love the idea. Hope to see more soon.

Woot! Another band. I do think that the shaman should be more of shamany. An advisor of sponsor of the 3 or more Morkateers.

Heeee...

Awesome stuff.

Very cool! I've just started messing around with green stuff, there is some great inspirational stuff in all of your minis.

As you were dropping hints about these on saturday, I thought I'd stop by for a nosey.

To quote my annoying younger sister

OMG!!!

It's amazing to see how you get so much character out of those plastic orcs!

Naturally, the goblins are my favs

Looking good

by the way how bad was the movie? Is it at all watchable?

Nothing comes close to the 1973 version. Wathos is Oliver Reed as an Orc! The good thing about the new remake is that it made me want to re-watch the 1973 version again... and.. y'know... airships!

Totally love your mini's, espescially the goblins... I agree with Dazza, it's simply amazing how much character you have given them!

I've done some more greenstuff work on nearly all of the Morkateers. I've added "cup hilts" to their swords, facial hair to a couple of them and tidied up some other parts like joints and backs. I've also nearly finished Boarthos - he just needs the hilt of his sword.

I've taken better photos too!

Pretty funny idea & nice sculpting. I love especially the goblins.

YET ANOTHER FINELY CRAFTED & THEMED War Band! I love the hats...they really capture the Musketeer look. EXCELLENT WORK!

Ready for battle!

One for Orc and Orc for one!

Hahaha They are boss!

The best Orc warband I have seen for a while (Yep sorry I think they even beat your pirates which were the top of the pile previously!)

Favourite touches has to be the sword cups, oh the detail. Really think they look great. I know you said for henchmen you would just chuck in a few pirates but seeing how well these guys have turned out do you fancy doing a couple more maybe with ta-bards and helmets and the like?

Love your stuff!

P.S: Congratulations for getting on the GW webpage with your Mermaid thingy

Thanks Yak!!

I'm going to do Punchitt the Troll - Hogtagnon's faithful servant. I've already started two Goblins so I'll paint them and maybe two additional ones.

I may do Mildew Da Windows, the treacherous Wench and Count Rock Fort the one-eyed swordmaster. After that... who knows! Tabbards are possible!

Awesome job as always.

hehe the goblins are just hillarious! Looks like highwaymen really really top notch

What sprue di you use for the orcs?

Any movie with airships has to be at least partially watchable, you know the parts with airships

As always, VERY WELL DONE! Adding a couple with tabbards would give you a chance for a splash of color.... AND Rochfort is Oh-So-Cool.

Cheers guys!

Thanks to Curis I've been Ninjabreaded! http://www.ninjabread.co.uk/2011/11/09/the-more-than-three-musketorcs/

VERY COOL! It's always nice to see talent & imagination recognized.

Excellent! Another thread of great looking - and original - miniatures!

Sorry Alex - I missed this question earlier!

The Big'Unz and the Boss are made from plastic 40k Ork Nobz.
