Orkmacht Games Workshop Gretchin Crew from Forge World......

.........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.......

    Sounds like it would be easy to defeat them.
    Excellent work on the paint job. They have a nice sheen to them.

    Nice work Fran! (or is that grotty work?)

    As 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!

    Nice work Fran. I like the olive skin tone, feels more "real", if you know what I mean.

    Really nice work Fran. Such a fun bunch of figures to paint. I hope they were a pleasant distraction from the memories of the sporehole.

    Great 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.

    Hail Franonia!!
