Tasha's had two pieces of Orc artwork in it, this Rune Knight:[ATTACH=full]136998[/ATTACH]This Four-Elements Monk: [ATTACH=full]137004[/ATTACH]And this Magical-Tattoo Artist:[ATTACH=full]136999[/ATTACH]All of them are very muscular in comparison to a typical human, but have noticeably less bulk than the Orcs in the Monster Manual and Volo's, and they're also a much lighter skin tone (<a href="https://www.enworld.org/threads/tashas-drow-art-and-the-future-of-their-depictions-in-d-d.679475/" target="_blank">which has been applied to Drow as well</a>). The second one looks a bit green, but not as much as the one in VRGtR. I like the Orc art, but it is a pretty big directional change. It almost looks like they're Half-Orcs. I'm not complaining (I'm a big fan of the Elder Scrolls' version of Orcs, which look quite similar to this more recent art), and I actually think the art is quite good, I'm just pointing it the recent change.</blockquote>
