Here, too! Man, keep those retro-15's coming! |

There is nothing quite like pig-faced orcs. I don't even game in this scale, but am nonetheless tempted by these. I'm sure they will sell very, very well. |

Gorgeous Hams!  |

They remind me of my old D&D books. |

Cool! I love mixing different styles of Orcs in my armies,it gives them that "different tribes" sorta feel. |

The orcs-as-big-goblins conspiracy has been exposed! These are great, look forward to the half-orcs too! |

I think they prefer 'boar-faced', much more intimidating. They really do capture the old-school feel, well-done! |

I can't wait for these! I tried to do some 15mm pig faced orcs myself but set it aside. Maybe I'll get back to it sometime. |

Who was the first to imagine or depict orcs as "pig-faced?" Was it because "Orc" rhymes with "pork?" |

I think most of us are tracking it back to an illustration in 1st Edition AD&D's Monster Manual. Not sure about before that. |

The pig faces were probably derive from some of the work done by the Hildebrandt brothers for the Tolkien calendars in the mid 70s. |
