They have no ork icons or anything , but they look so cute that i feel bad changing anything on it ><
( more like my modeling skill is inadequate -_- )
Might eventually have some courage to glue some on D: i guess that makes it WIP

For suggestions, I think you should put it on a standard GW base. Give it some elaborate scenery, painted with a similar rusty style, and as mentioned, I think it needs a powa klaw, some propa dakka, and some iconography. I'm a fan of a plasticard lower jaw and some rivetted plates to make it much more looted.

Once you do get a round to adding Power Klaws, I know for a fact that popping the elbow off of the ring it's attached to isn't hard(I've accidentally done it to two different Kolossi).

A freind of mine used those as Mega-Armoured Nobz. Looks pretty cool. Still, I would try to convert them at least a little bit, otherwise, why post the min the modeling forum

Also: Is there a prize for changing the Avatar every week?

I don't see why not. As long as it's consistent-ish(though that's not a big thing with Ork armies), plus isn't there a Cybork Saw Power Klaw on the Nobs sprue?

woah, hang on a mo.
ork klaws and DCCW's never have to be the same :O

can be anything you like, for example:

large chainsaw, buzzsaw, snips, large hammer, spinning blades, wrecking ball, power fist type things, huge blades, pnumatic spikes ......

list goes on and on, but moral of the story is;

orks can have alot of variation and make them even more orky, nothing wrong with a huge variation of weps in the ork army.
aslong as its clear what it is and does.

AT-43 Red Blok Kolossus. They come in a number of styles: RPG(Dual Rocket launchers), Strielitz(Grenade/Flamer), Dragomirov(Rocket/GaussMG), and Spetsnatz(Dual Flamers).

Attached a shoota and a chain saw from ork boys bits.

Hope that works for weaponry :'/ dont have plasticard atm.

Any suggestions to where might be good to attach more bitz / plates?

*ps the size of the base is actually the same as terminator / mega armor nob base.

the most i can do is attach tiny bit of extra stuff on, but not much room left :x

luna, they seem a little too uniformed for orks, got any banners from the boyz? anything would work, just need something to make each one individual.

Looks a lot better with the extra bitz

As far as I know the klan with the most bots are Goffs.

Mostly black with some black and white patterns whereever they like it.
Altough considering that those are supposed to be Grotz in there (which you should show somehow), I guess it could easily be Bad Moons as well. No other Klan where a Grot could get something big like this

that is all kinds of awsome

My only comment is on the shoota having a clip on it seems wrong seing as its drum fed so uf you cut off the clip and added an extra shoota it will make it look a lot better

also, as for goths the main colours are:

black, white details.

common patterns:

checkered patterns, dag's (triangle teef shape on edges of armour)

I would stick a boss pole or some kind of banner on the backpack. Maybe drill a small hole in the top or try to attach it between the backpack and the body. Looks awesome though, great idea!!

YES! Yes you can use the chainsaws as PK. And anyone that says no you cant should get punched. You do need to add more Orkyness to that tho. Deffinetly some grots since your making them grot mega armor.

Just make sure the saw is big enough to make sure everyone's attention is drawn to it.

Then no one will have trouble remembering that the huge saw hands are powerklaws. (Unless, I suppose, you also had giant saw hands that weren't powerklaws.)

The Emperor doesn't seem to do much for you but you sure are expected to be mutilated, suffer, and die to make him happy. And is he dead or what? If he's entombed that would mean he's dead as a doornail, right? So, how can he be happy about anything you do, or even give orders to anyone? Are you worshipping the dead now? Is that something you'd really want to do? Because it sounds freaking creepy to me.

That looks pretty good. I don't think I could paint a better check pattern.

One more thing, you could paint the hole on the upper body like a window of some kind.
