This was the model I put the most time into for the Standish Standoff painting competition. I have always wanted to do Snikrot, it is a great unqiue model especially in the 40mm category.  So I thought it would be a model that is not seen a ton on the painting seen and something that I could make stand out easily. I mean the idea of a stealthy killer orc is far scarier to me than a mob of orcs you can see coming. 



By the end of it I believe I spent 2 days painting on him. The fall camo scheme on his fatigues was pulled straight from the call of duty Russian scheme used in I think modern warfare 2.  Mork's teef started off as boltgun metal then  were hit with several washes included Secret Weapon Miniatures Storm cloud wash(IT IS FANTASTIC FOR METALS I <3 IT).  Then the whole shabang got weathered with pigments from Secret weapon as well.



The base was built from multiple layers of cheap cork covered in several mixtures of different flock, then that flock was base coated in a black/brown then multiple layers of pigments were applied over the base to build up the color of the autumn-ish scene.

The leaves and tree were also from SWM I can't recommend their products enough they really helped me pull this model off.

When I was done with this guy I really thought had a winning entry on my hands and I was not disappointed. Here are some shots of the awesome trophies that the crew at crossroad games put together for the tournament. I am extremely proud to own one.
