These are the first run of RT Orks before they got all fixated with Clans. Not that I have a problem with the clans and the plastic arm orcs of later RT, I have a bunch of them too. But I do love this incarnation, they are so piratical and brutal.
I think I painted these about the time the Iraq war started, the second one, I had some notion in my head about doing them as some sort of desert force form that.

I also have a load left to paint but maybe I'll update the others some time too.
