Thanks for your patience!
Hello Adventurers and Merchants!
The wait is finally over and the Orr'ugs are live!
After so much time not working on orcs and ogres, I wanted to make some new ones since my style has changed over the years. I was thinking of a set of creatures that would embrace characteristic of both ogres and orcs, and so I come up with the Orr'ugs (thanks for helping me chosing the name!).
They are similar in size to the orcs I sculpted the last years, roughly 38mm to eyes, but more bulky and with slightly more elongated and feral faces.
This size can easy be scaled up to ogre for your adventures.
In the set you'll find tons of options to make ranged and melee troops some really epic huge wolves to be used as cavalry or beasts (unsaddled), and a colossal Bear God that has been slowly corrupted by his hate for the barbarians of the dragonpeaks. I wanted to keep the Bear god unarmored (as I did for Fenrir) to rapresent is divine beast status, this will also make it more compatible with your adventurers in the wild :)
As you will see in the lore section, the Orr'ugs are headed to the Dragonpeaks to claim the Dragonheart protected by the Dragonlord Kromatur and his Barbarian cult.
In the near future a war will take place in the foot of the dragonpeaks: will Kromatur's ancient allies fulfill their oath and aid him and his barbarians in the upcoming war?
And who are these allies?
...Well, that's exactly what's coming next month!
Guilds has been updated to the version v08231 and now it includes the new faction under Chaos!
Please check the Unit Cards of your guild as some typo had been fixed.
Would you like take your tabletop gaming to the next level with any sort of modular unit, heroes or monster? Visit our MyMiniFactory Store to get any model from our previous releases! Use the code below to get a 30% OFF code, valid till the end of the month!
Welcome to the universe of Guilds!
In Guilds you play a powerful Guild in an intriguing arcane world called Mundus, a place pervaded by legendary creatures and torn by war.
As a Guildmaster of a rising guild will you inspire brave men and women to face your rivals and epic monstrosities, or will you surround yourself with hordes of minions to unleash havoc on the battlefield?
Run expeditions through the world, advance through Quests in exciting campaigns, upgrade your guild to recruit even more powerful creatures and learn new spells, and inspire legendary characters of Mundus to join your cause!
But choose your allies wisely, Guildmaster, as siding with certain factions will prevent you from recruiting those who don’t share the same vision of the world. May the skalds sing your deeds!

Nomad Orr’ugs
The nomadic and resilient Orr'ugs of the Steppes are descendants of the orc and ogre tribes who have been driven from the mountains by long wars with dragons. Inheriting strength and courage from their ancestors, the Orr'ugs measure valor by martial prowess and reverence for ancient traditions.
The hunting techniques of the Orr'ug wolfrider archers are renowned and feared across the continent.
Orr’ugs Wolf Riders
The mighty, thick-coated steppe wolves have been inseparable hunting companions of the Orr'ug tribes since time immemorial.
Larger and fiercer than ordinary wolves, they have been trained in warfare tactics and enable Orr'ug archers to shoot arrows with precision.
When a steppe wolf falls in battle, his cloak will be worn on the belt by his rider to honor his valor, and his enormous fangs will be used to adorn his headdress, so that the wolf spirit may always watch over him.
Tulguur Blue-Wolf
“Nothing shall escape my falcon’s sight"
- Tulguur Blue-Wolf, Orr’ug Shaman.
The massive Orr'ug with the long braided beard and mischievous smile is the mighty shaman called Tulguur, the one who is said to have inherited the powers of the ancient Blue Wolf revered by the Orr'ug centuries ago.
As is customary among the shamans of the tribes, Tulguur is accompanied by a cunning falcon with which he is able to communicate telepathically through his shamanic powers. As right-hand man to Khan Avarga, Tulguur trains young Orr'ugs in the ancient traditions and arts of warfare.
Though a formidable fighter, Tulguur's true strength lies in the incinerating power of his arcane lightning.
Khan Avarga Tomor-Gar
"The Orr'ug will take back the Dragonpeaks, I swear it on my spirit-blessed axe!"
Avarga Tomor-Gar – Khan of the Orr’ugs.
Avarga Tomor-Gar is the supreme leader of the Orr'ug tribes, the khan, the commandress of legend, the one who has led the clans to dozens of battles and always emerged victorious.
Her gigantic runic axe has been blessed by the demigoddess Umai, and is capable of slicing through living and spirits: an artifact wich Avarga vowed to use to slay the dragonlord Kromatur.
Thanks to Avarga, the tribes of Orr'ug who once fought each other for control of the steppes are now a formidable army that poses a real threat to the peoples of Rotvar.
Uul-Bavgar the Giant Bear
Legends say that gigantic animals live near the Dragonpeaks, ancient divine creatures capable of communicating with mortals and leading the beasts against those who do not respect their kingdom. One of them is Uul-Bavgar, spirit of the Dragonpeaks mountains, the mystical giant bear enemy of dragons and wyverns.
Tulguur met this divine beast mortally wounded following a battle against the Barbarians of the Dragon cult, and helped him recover by providing him with shamanic healing and dressing his wounds.
The mighty bear-god made a pact of alliance with the Orr'ug, vowing to assist them in their final battle against the dragonlord Kromatur and his cult if in the future the Orr'ugs decide to drive dragons and wyvern away from those mountains.
Umai the Oracle
The wise and authoritarian Umai is the spiritual guide of the Orr'ug, the seer who unified all the tribes under the cult of spirits, protectress of ancient rituals and traditions.
To the Orr'ug, Umai is a semi-divine creature, revered as a goddess of fate and fertility.
Umai's enigmatic predictions narrate that one day, the Orr'ug will return to the Dragonpeaks, which was formerly the home of the orc and ogre ancestors who gave rise to their race.
Carved Tusks
Orr'ug places of worship are often surrounded by giant carved bone tusks belonging to gigantic creatures now extinct.
The Orr'ug believe that the strength of these behemoths flows through their remains, and honoring them with shamanic rituals can imbue their warriors with the power of these ancient creatures.

How do you get the my mini factory files ? Also is there anywhere showing theses painted for inspiration?
Vovin_6
Oh yeah I don't think they did high elves yet. Would be nice to see them soon
Mercurius
I dunno what you guys are working on next, but I've been looking through the product catalogue, and, while I really like your elves thanks especially to their very pronounced ears, I wouldn't mind some more "high elf" style elves with less wood/leaf motifs on their armor and gear. I have a race of elves in my campaign that are patterned after Heian era Japan, so more Asian-style (non-samurai) elements would be appreciated, but I recognize that such a look might be a little too specific...
Artisan Guild
Hi Jacob! We are very happy to have you with us :) We always send a private message at the end of the month with the links and password. And the files are also added to the MyMiniFactory library. So, you can have access to them whenever you need them. Cheers!

Just subscribed! Awesome stuff! Do I need to download everything for it to be saved or can I keep the link/pass for future access?
Ash Thornton
As usual amazing models, is there any chance that you will be able to make square bases to go with models in addition to the round ones? your bases are great but not suitable for the System i play and its a real shame because they compliment the models perfectly
Matt Fillio
I love how easily the supports separate from the models. What support settings do you use?
