Citadel Goblin Raiding Party

Given that the world was meant to end yesterday, I held off preparing this post - no point spending time writing if nobody was going to be around to read it. However, given that the world's still here, this week there be Goblins...

Much as I'm a Dwarfer at heart, they do need someone to fight, so I painted up an Orc and Goblin army many moons ago. Amongst the army are the Citadel Speciality Set 4 - Goblin Raiding Party from 1982 (yup, I am that old).

The original box has long gone (or is possibly still in the loft somewhere), so I aplogise if I get any names wrong. I'm taking the names from the Solegends link above and showing them in the same order (even though that's not the base number order).

The figures were painted using Humbrol and Airfix enamels and have been both gloss and matt varnished at various times.
