Painted: Uruk-hai Berserker

 

This year I managed to paint only one orc for Orctober, a metal uruk-hai berserker. I painted him the exact same way as me other uruk-hai, so the recipe was posted here previously.

Slapchop performs better on models such as this, that is pieces that don't have much metal on them. The other uruk-hai took much longer as they are covered head to toe with metal plates, while this little fellow has a helmet, gauntlets, metal-capped boots and some chainmail at the waist, which made painting him a breeze and it's probably possible to churn out a couple of berserkers in the same time it takes one normal uruk-hai to be ready.

Either way, my Isengard forces have another painted miniature among them. Even after the news that a lot of MESBG models get retired I'm still looking forward to the new edition of the game and I hope that It will be at least as good as the current one.
