The money order is not a problem if that is what you wish to use. I am mainly using pal pay due that it is a secure way for transaction for both parties. If you wish to use the money order that will be fine. I will provide you with an invoice receipt as well.

PM me with the info and it will provide you with the total.

A space marine?! in his mouth? Omiemprahh....

Cool.

Really awesome work. I love the choice of theme. The puzzle pieces must make you crazy some times.

One day I am going to do a Goff army and they will all just be in Black, those guys look brilliant, and I know you are adding colour. But I always think orks look awesome at this stage.

Update:

Good morning Dakka,

The Storm boyz are doing way this week as you can see. I will be changing the color scheme for each of these guys to represent the blood angel units. I will have some of the bitz painted Black and red for Death Company, Red and white for the blood angels, and gold for the sanguinary guard. This will make the units fall into the theme that I have been looking for.

I will be using for lizardmen and chaos bitz to represent the Salamanders theme for Burnas. This will be interesting to incorporate with the full out theme.

@Largeblastmarker- yep, space marine head as the grenade caps.. I need a uses for the heads

@sennacherib- thank you and welcome. The puzzle pieces are tedious with paints. I find that as long as I can get is as clean as I can, paint not bleeding into one another, that I can draw in the pieces themselves with a fine tipped pen or brush to connect them as pieces.

@Camkierhi- Goff is a fun clan for the Orks. I would suggest grays to highlight on the armor. You will need some other brighter colors to pull for the dark colors.

Update on Charity Project:

We are on a roll so far with a sale of 10 t-shirt. My goal is 24 for so that more will be able to go to the Organization of Autism Research.

For those who have ordered t-shirts I want to thank you. Just a reminder that payment Via PayPal is due on October 28, 2013.
For those who wish to still order please PM me with information and I will Contact you with an Invoice and Payment information.

If there are any question, please contact me, time is running out

P.S.
I will be away from October 14-18. I will be at Williamsburg Virginia for vacations ; however, I will still be active on the PM scene but paint will be slowed for a day or too… yes I am bringing models to paint on vacation… my Girlfriend love it <Sarcasm lol

Good Evening DakkaDakka

I am here to greet you all to my first attempt of a charity that will benefit those who are subscript to this blog and the families that hopefully this function can help.

Why am I doing this? What is my Purpose?
The Simple answer is “because I can”. Within the last year in a half I have been taking on projects, as you all know, Road to Armies on Parade which I have chosen charitable themes to advance the awareness of the topic at hand. I did not feel like I contributed enough on the Breast Cancer Awareness. I made the army colors and the pink ribbon to symbolize the theme of the army but added nothing to the cause. Now I am taking a small risk and adding more to the cause for this year by holding a charity event of the blog.

Charity? What charity?
I am holding the first Road to Armies on Parade Charity T-Shirt and Raffle to help out those who this cause. I will be taking orders for the T-Shirt of the month of October. All T-Shirts will be made to Order so sizes are not a problem.



Did you draw the Design on the T-shirt? Where are the T-shirts coming from?
The Answer is simple, nope. I had commissioned one of DakkaDakka own, grey_death, to draw the art work for the t-shirt and I am happy with the work that he had done to help out. I am purchasing the T-shirts through www.ooshirts.com.

How much will the T-Shirts cost me?
Each T-Shirt cost $20 per. This is for all Size S to 3XL. There is not a minimum on the amount of shirt per order. The $20 price will include the following: T-shirt, Shipping and Handles, and 1x Raffle ticket. Any and All Profits will be donated to OAR: Organization of Autism Research http://www.researchautism.org/. Due to the Printable Donation Form, all will receive a copy of the form and the Donation Receipt as well as a invoice from me.

What did I hear about a Raffle?
This event will also hold a raffle for some NIB Warhammer 40k items. The three large items will be random: NIB Landerraider, NIB Leman Russ, NIB Dread Knight, Plus a few smaller prizes such as Reaper Miniature, Gameszone, etc. You will be able to Purchase extra Raffle Tickets at the Cost of $5 per ticket. Drawings for the Raffle will be Monday November 4th. Only those who purchase T-shirt will be eligible for the extra ticket sales.



Can I win more than one prize?
One Raffle ticket, Once Prize.. Multiple Tickets, sky’s the limit

How do I order?
You can order T-Shirts and Raffle Tickets via PayPal. You will PM me in a clear message the Following
1) Full Name, Mailing Address, Country, and Phone Number (as you would is mailing out a Letter)
Ex.
Nickolas R Ferraro
*** B****** Street

Funds for the T-Shirt will be due by Monday, October 28th 2013. I will send a Reminder on October 25th. I will place the order for the t-shirts from the Provider on November 1st 2013.

When will I receive my stuff?
Once the Payment is made and the T-Shirts are in I will send out all T-Shirts and Raffle Prizes at the same time. There will be update on this page regularly throughout the life of this blog. All items will be sent out USPS and USPS International First Class/ Flat Rate to ensure that all purchases come with a tracking number.

My Goal is to Sell 25 shirt minimum. (more of Personal goal)

If this year goes well I will invest more time and money to make next year’s better

Update:

Good morning dakka,
I will be back with new pictures of the Orks tonight. The skin and leather are complete and the oh-so red armor will be applied this evening. The photos are on my ipad so can't post them while I am at work, bummer right?

The commission job the I was working on was a personally favor commission. My friend Francis is creating his skaven and wanted his lord to stand out. He gave it to me the price of a WIB shadow blade model... Hehe dark elves... My first original army.

Shirts and raffles are still going on.. I have some more prize support coming so stay tune for more

Charity update:

T-shirts/ raffle are still on sale, get them while you can. Sales are ending soon

Good Afternoon Dakka,

I have just returned from Williamsburg Virginia from a little weeks’ vacation. I am now recharged to jump head first into this project to catch up on the lag that has been building for a while. You will see more photos, more entries, more… well… those big bad orks and me.

We are at the home stretch with the T-shirt / Raffle.. We are 16 shirts sold so far and almost at my personal goal of 24. Remember those who purchase T-shirt also receive raffle tickets for great times. The more that people purchase, the more that we are about to Donate any profits to the Organization of Autism Research. All information for the T-shirt Sale is in prior posts for those who are interested.

Please remember I am not taking any orders after October 25, 2013. And if you did order then funds are due by October 28, 2013 or your order and raffle tickets will be invalid for the drawing in November.

If there is any questions please let me know.

PS Happy Halloween BOO!

Good Afternoon Dakka!
Update Charity:

We are at the final days of the T-shirt Sale. I want to thank those who are participating in this experimental endeavor. I have explained the reasons and the benefits of your t-shirt purchase as well as great prize support. If this year works out I will make this an Annual charity event for the Dakka site, or at least, within my blogs.

Remember on October 25, 2013, I will send out reminders to those who have not paid for the items yet.

I will do the raffle drawings on November 4th. If your number that I have PM you comes out, Post on the blogs your glee

Update Project:
The StormBoyz are ready for their final highlight. I am ensuring that all of the models are painting with the appropriate amount of dead marines I am able to have. The Puzzle pieces on the armor are going to be spread out so that they are more noticeable to the viewers… which are you.

Once the stormboyz are completed this week I will be working specifically on the Vehicles, Cam’s Grot Rod I like to call it, the battle wagon, and two deff dreads.

Photos will be up tonight to show the progress of the project.. I went picture happy this week so far.

I'm actually kinda sad that I just saw this today. I don't get paid until the 31st, and would love to donate/buy a shirt for sure. I have worked with several autistic kids (anywhere from 5-28yo) and love supporting them every chance I get. I'll PM you and see if I cant arrange something... even just a donation.

Update:

Quick picture from last night. Finishing up more now

If you want to place an order, you can PM me with the information. I am doing the T-shirt Order on Nov 1 and that is my payday as well. I am buying a t-shirt of my own (exempt from the raffle of course). If you put your order in I will give you until Friday to pay I am a easy going guy.

Taking forever, but man are they coming out looking great.

Good evening Dakka,

Tonight is the final day for ordering. The box closes tonight at Mid-night. I will be placing the shirt order in on Nov 1 so if you have not paid yet than please hurry, or I will have to void those who did not paid orders.

If there are any questions regarding the charity event please let me know.

The only question I have is, DID I WIN!? Can't wait to see how much you raised and who wins what!
