Brown skinned Orcs? What a stupid idea. Do you paint humies purple? Sheesh people sometimes.
Brown/black is the original coller for orcs. I dont know who made thme green?

Games Workshop did when they created their Warhammer line of fantacy games (of which Blood Bowl is one). It was a radical departure from the tolkin/D&D tradition, that helped diffreintiate them from the rest of the industry.

hmmm. I remember old 70s-80s D&D pics of orcs being basically baby blue pig faced fellas. not a pretty sight. Me much prefer the dark to light green differentiation by GW.

Thanks for explaining..

well, I still remember my first orc team...

I never seen GW stuff before, and when the store manager told me that the orcs are green, I think: "green? that's funny", and I try to paint them with brown too... I couldn't. my second orc team is green too, but if I buy a new orc team, will be RED
