Here are some of the extremely large Great Orcs by Harlequin (Black Tree Design) I painted up. These guys paint up outstanding
I am thinking of buying a lot more of them. I am using them as Trolls, since they are extremely larger than my LOTR Harlequin Orcs, etc. link Thanks for Looking!! Tom |

Tom, I think you have answered this before, but how do you think these BTD/Harlequin Orcs fit in with any GW ones? These seem a bit more "realistic" in style, akin to GW LOTR orcs or such, rather than the Warhammer style, but I also was not sure about the scale comparison either. |

I am not sure, I have never had a GW Orc, not too fond of them. (I am sure I am getting booed now)
.but BTD Great Orcs are in the range of 35mm plus
.huge. So that being said, I think they would fit in well, with the larger orcs of GW. Then again, I have never held any in my hand. But these orcs once painted up are assume.They are sculpted by the great Kev Adams. I highly recommend them, they are worth the money, and watch for them on sale, plus sign up for their news letter and get extra savings. I caught the crossbow on sale for 35% off one day a few monthes ago. Tom Tom |

Nice work. They do look like they'd scale up well with GW. I've been rather impressed with BTD's fantasy lines and this is no exception. As darclegin says, I definitely recommend folks sign up for their free membership/newsletter. They do send you a fair amount of email, but there are a lot of 35% off sales and eventually every line get's 50% off! |

I will have to order some next time they are on sale. I have a bunch of BTD in the Averaign and Helsinian lines (for Bretonnia proxies), and also the wood elves and vermin (skaven clones). If you pick your lines they are really nice. |
