I feel like our avatars should not be allowed near one another for so many reasons.
Back on subject, I'll be starting to assemble and have a go at Orking after this weekend. I'm trading at a convention, so Ive had it all on to remember to eat and sleep.
I have no idea what the ork is, it's the one that Para sent back this way as there was a bit of confusion and my original went to theCrowe.

War Kitten- Vanden, you just taunted the Dank Lord Ezra. Prepare for seven years of fighting reality...
koooaei- Emperor: I envy your nipplehorns. <Magnus goes red. Permanently>
Neronoxx- If our Dreadnought doesn't have sick scuplted abs, we riot.
Frazzled- I don't generally call anyone by a term other than "sir" "maam" "youn g lady" "young man" or " HEY bag!"
Ruin- It's official, we've ran out of things to talk about on Dakka. Close the site. We're done.

As far as I know, I only sent one mini, the painted one... Although I think I might have been sent a couple extra in the first place, which later got allocated to a couple of other Dakkanaughts instead. I know I painted up 3 Orks ready to swap by the time they were sent out, but only sent one in the end.
Not that it matters, so long as everyone's got an Ork! Keep the pics coming, everyone!

Before I bag the fella up and post him away , I thought I would get a few shots of him with the two guys he has been spreading mischief with for the last few days.
Sad to see him go, but I know he is heading for greater things!
Generally speaking, boys are what will be sent out. I was sent an extra nob, but that's already spoken for, unfortunately. I'll see what I can scrounge up, but I can't promise anything more than a boy and some bits/materials.

No remorse here. He's gone to a much safer place as far as I'm concerned. Postage and all. Any ork spotted lying around in my house gets played with. And i'm not talking with dice and rules.
There are a couple of preschoolers living here. i'm hoping theyre both cultivating a lifelong obsession with tabletop gaming, unfortunately it's at the cost of many paintstakingly painted minis which I'm learning to re-glue with the calm acceptance of fatherhood. (ie much shouting and misguided rage.)
The ork I painted up was at one time in the sticky grasp of a four year old before it made it safely into the post. Better off in the hands of the worldwide postal service than at my house.

I'm not a Londoner so I can't really claim the Orkish east end drawl but I am from somewhere with an altogether more menacing accent. Imagine you dropped Liam Neeson's warhammer minis and he threatened to use his very particular set of skills (in my case hobby craft) to sort you out. That's my house.

Pretty sure that's the plot for Taken 5....

Nay, if this were Nurgle, the kinder option would be death and reanimation, I'd be more awake.
Saw a Dr under duress, they tested me for a dozen things and all came back nope. I'm waiting on another appointment to find out what we do from here.
In the meantime my painting, gaming and mailing time have given way to sleepy time. The Orks can come in, that's fine.
In my case it gets delivered by a postman that deliberately speaks French when he thinks I've just woken up.
Which I have.
Sometimes he just walks backwards and uses backward words to make it worse.
It's called Royal Mail 24 now, rather than First Class. feth knows why.
