Hey Weety, Looks like you did really well with the Advanced Space Crusade,
The sttealers and the librarians, I believe are from an expansion pack which went with advanced space crusade, the name eludes me to it, are the libbies, in cream coloured plastic and have a monstrously big force axe?

They get a wizard consultant to explain how it works.
Remember Celeborn's words in The Fellowship of The Ring..."Tell me where is Gandalf for I much desire to speak with him."
...or maybe he found out what ole Gandalf and Galadriel were doing behind his back?

aren´t they hatched? i thought that uruk hai and elves are nearly the same... and the orks get hatched in holes in the soil... i bet it is more like a geen grassland with elves but still in essence the same thing... and i bet elves have no glimpse of the warfare between the sexes...in which men always loose 
and good looking weety... how do you do those raised areas like the bone works so clean? i am cruuently struggling with russian letter i paint on some minis.,.. raised detail all and it gives me serious cramps...

Now if you wana get all official about it I believe that Tolkien never discussed it but the elves do fall in love and get "jiggy" with it. Baby elves frequently follow and seeing as they can mate with humans I guess they do it the old fashioned way...
When painting around raised areas it helps to have a tiny brush, a bright light and a very steady hand. Thats all really.

I'm not touching dwarf sex with a barge pole... I say they hatch out of rocks due to sunspot activity.
Terry pratchett had some good theories.
As for orcs hatching out of egg sacks - well I think thats just in the film - I think in the books tolkien states "For the Orcs had life and multiplied after the manner of the Children of Illuvatar" Although its a bit contentious as Tolkien never mentions female orcs. I think that its probably just because he found the idea of female orcs distasteful...

In the LoTR films Saurmon was producing a "New" kind of Orc right? So that is why they were hatching from egg sacs. That was what I thought anyway.
It would be funny if Orcs were the larval phase of Elves. They are born Orcs, and spend many years in that form, then one day they hang upside down in a tree and spin a cocoon. After a few years, the cocoon splits and out comes a beautiful elf, remembering nothing from their former life. 
Orc females look exactly like the males. You can only tell the difference when they are naked. Barely. Same with Dwarves.
