.........also known as Day of the Grots!
This is how Games Workshop describe Gretchin......
Gretchin mobs make up for their shocking lack of quality with sheer quantity. The natural cowardice and feeble-limbed incompetence of the Gretchin race does not predispose them to the arts of war, and a typical Grot would prefer to have his head buried in a sporehole than to actually participate in a proper battle.
For the meaning of a sporehole ask Ray, he has one!
Painted up a while ago for another project that stalled back in the day! They are also resin.......
Mean and green! Looks good!
ReplyDeleteThanks Johnny!
DeleteAwesome work dude. Great looking minis and love the basing!
ReplyDeleteYou're too kind Simon!
Deletethey seem like intelligent race of lil' monsters :) why kill yourself in the battle when you live in the sporehole :)
ReplyDeleteLike a black hole but even nastier!
DeleteDid I really see one of them with a finger in the nose? Oh, disgusting group...disgusting and beautiful, agitated...excellent job Fran, love the bases as well!
ReplyDeleteThanks for that Phil!
DeleteThey sure aren't afraid to use anything as a weapon, awesome job indeed
ReplyDeleteThanks Pat!
DeleteSounds like it would be easy to defeat them.
ReplyDeleteExcellent work on the paint job. They have a nice sheen to them.
Nice one Alex!
DeleteNice work Fran! (or is that grotty work?)
ReplyDeleteAs for Ray's sporehole, presumably that's the one dug by the badger, which he uses for smuggling budgies? ;)
I saw it once and it was worse than the budgie smugglers!
DeleteNice work Fran. I like the olive skin tone, feels more "real", if you know what I mean.
ReplyDeleteFMB
It's certainly different from the normal green used!
DeleteLovely job on these Fran.
ReplyDeleteThanks Paul!
DeleteLoving these Fran, great job Sir.
ReplyDeleteThanks Michael!
DeleteReally nice work Fran. Such a fun bunch of figures to paint. I hope they were a pleasant distraction from the memories of the sporehole.
ReplyDeleteNearly Rodney, nearly!
DeleteVery witty, shitbag!
ReplyDeleteWhat????
DeleteGreat job painting, my General. Hail Franonia! Perhaps General, your military experimental lab has already perfected a a powder that, when sniffed and ingested into the blood stream by these warriors, they will become a ferocious and effective deterrent to the zed hordes shambling across your sovereign borders from the snicked land of -ayonia.
ReplyDeleteHail Franonia!!
Hail Franonia, have another medal Field Marshall!
DeleteNice one Fran. Grots have a quality all of their own.
ReplyDeleteThey do mate, thanks!
DeleteAwesome! Love the little fellah picking' his nose!
ReplyDeleteGood one :-)
Thanks Paul!
DeleteI think I GROT the message, but where's Ray?
ReplyDeleteThe other grots beat him up!
DeleteWeird and wonderful, Fran.
ReplyDeleteExactly!
DeleteReally nice painting on those Grotty little Grots. Cheers
ReplyDeleteThanks for that mate!

DeleteGreat stuff Fran - Iove the one with 'is digit buried up to the knuckle in his great green hooter! Revoltingly hilarious! Great paint and basing too.
ReplyDeleteI liked that one myself!
DeleteI think I'm kinda obsessed with their giant noses.
ReplyDeleteIt's a big thing!
DeleteMan those things look awesome. And very deadly. I wouldn't want to be on the wrong side of them.
ReplyDeleteVery true Mark!
DeleteLovely job Fran! Nice to see the Nazi-Ork warmachine still churning them out!
ReplyDeleteThanks Bob!
DeleteIt truly is an ongoing pleasure o see you develop this army! Do you actually get to use them in Ireland Fran? I'd like to see them in "action" a lot.
ReplyDeleteNot at the moment mate, solo wargaming in my future!
DeleteI love the one that's holding a big ass wrench. Now THAT would be my melee weapon of choice!
ReplyDeleteZombie proof as well!
DeleteReally nice, a very complete crew! And very brave, I´m sure...
ReplyDeleteSo brave!!!!
DeleteWell done, you on the painting. And thanks for the well-wishes regarding my health.
ReplyDeleteAwesome work there Fran!
