really want to see some amazing orky conversions from people. im working on an army myself and will be posting a couple of pics but im more interested in seeing some new conversion ideas

That looks sick as hell. Very nicely done.

Da mek boss! Sorry not the best picture but you get the idia!

Awesome mekk. Love how bulky and armed to the teeth he is.

Good conversions, but you forgot to drill the barrels - unless of course your orks run out on the field and explode?

Nearly my entire Ork horde is just a mash of scratch built crazyness. Heres a taste, a link to my blog is floating just above the crazy stripping guide banner
BikerBoss




And his entourage, koptas


My BigMek WhirrlyGig


Kanz


Dreads




I really need to get to painting/finishing painting. Hell I need to take a picture of the Biker bosses arm, its not just green wash anymore lol

I'm looking to do the same. I wanna make every model special and dynamic. Love the custom Dred. U should put more dakka on though

More Dakka?! Its WYSIWYG. 2x Bigshootas.

Couple of pics of my nob/flashgit

Those are some amazing conversions! The big mek grot is awesome, and so are the spider kanz. The only complaint I have is the blood. If you're going to do blood (I do!) you need to get a darker red, and put less on the weapons.

Yeah went overboard with the blood on the powerklaws. I was planning on making it darker but I want my warboss's nob bodyguard to look frenzied and in the thick of the fight. Any tips on how to make the blood darker?

Here is a Battle Fortress that I modified into a grot crewed land destroyer. It was called the Grotsmark, however as I have something even larger planned it has since been renamed the Grots Pee for favor of the larger one having the title of Grotsmark.

Holy badass! I really like that ram, prow thing you made on the front

Also, I just want to add, Im not a fan of putting blod on minis, to me, it takes away from the minis

That is immense. love the colour scheme. personally i think the more gore the better. 40k universe is brutal.

I've got myself a battlewagon. Never made a vehicle that big.

Thats a really good kit. Best part is, youll have so much left overs, youll be adding bits to random things for months. Now dont get discouraged when that single BW gets blown up real good, because like everything Ork, vehicles are meant to be taken en masse

Yeah the parts are awesome. I'm even thinking of making a gretchen morta to mount in the back. Just for looks obviously. Haha yeah I'm sure its going to be more use as a giant explosion. But I may get two if this one turns out well.

Ill tell ya, the way I normally run my wagons, is x4 bigshootas and a kannon. Its commonly called a gunwagon, and I can tell ya, it will lay bodies down. Best part is, its meant as a support, so its either getting ignored, which is good, or being shot at, which is good still since its AV14 on the front

Sounds like a plan. I really like the idea of all the guns but I wanted an open top one for my warboss and his nobz. I may have to get two afterall. Is it worth using a deathrolla?

The x4 bigshootas and a kannon is STILL open topped. Leave the Killkannon at home and make something out of it, its a friggin pile of gak on the table. An expensive pile of gak

Hey,


I haven't done too much on convertering guys yet, however I did have a shortage of power klaws when making my 'Ard Boy Nob, so had to use one from a war boss.

I am absolutely loving the steampunk style coloring on the metals!!! LOVE IT! I think I'm gonna use it!

Yeah ill leave the killkannon. I bought a couple of grot sponsons. Want grots to be all over my vehicles. Love the paint job on the ard boyz dude

My meks and big meks are hard at work. Tanks are on the way.

Tanks are good. You should turn this into a blog man.

I'm new to this. How do I do that? Lol.

Did someone say tanks? These count as wartracks modeled as grot tanks with a Skorcha. I intend to make some other turrets for them for stand ins for the twin linked rocket launcha.

Some awesome models will be coming soon. Ive been away all week so I havnt been able to do anything. Grot tank will be on the way soon though.

2 ways. Go to the DAKKA P&M Blogs and start a blog. (Dont forget to add all these cool things youve posted so far) OR ask a MOD if he could move this into the Blog section, and from there, just edit the title on your first page with the appropriate information





And those Grot Tanks/Buggies are pretty slick

My very first model, paint job, conversion (Bosspole), and exposure to 40k all in one.


My second conversion (Just the addition of the gob, made from femo)


My first real large scale conversion (Robogear, GW, and plasticard parts)


Followed by my first "serious" conversion/scratch build. (Biker Boss/Wazdakka)


And finally my latest small kustom. (Bigmek with KKFF "Kustom Kustom Force Field")
