Hey guys,

Just wanted to post up some almost complete photos of my dakkajet im working on. C&C welcome If you think its missing something please say! Im megabad at finalising stuff! always wana add more

Current plan is to have a huge bundle of rockets and bombs in the co-pilot seat, for the pilot to be blindfolded too.

Paintscheme and backstory:

The top shall be painted like the sky, blues with clouds. The underneath shall be painted in camos of greens and browns. With the panelling and scrapy looking parts being red for the 'red paint job effect'. The choice of colour scheme is to be directly opposite to what was used during the wars. With the underside being silvery and the top Camo'd. The obvious reason being that in the war if you looked down upon a plane and the top was camo'd and if you looked up it was light and reflective like the sky. But my orks have some much more sophisticated ideas about paint job.



Skagrot:" Boss, remind me why we is paintin' da jet like dis again?"

Da 'ead Baron: "Does I 'ave to explain everyfink over an over to your fick 'ead? We is paintin' da jet like dis cos da sky is up an' da groun' is down! See!" Pointing at the horizon. "We blend righ' in, got it dis time?!"

Skagrot: "Ok, boss! But I still don' understan' why it is I 'ave to wear dis blin'fold, just makes it 'ard to see!"

Da 'ead baron:" ARGHHH!! you been drinkin' da oil again you brainpuddle?! Like I says before, da blindfol' makes us unpredictible, cos even we don' know wha' we is gona do next! Den! wit our unpredictible and invisible combination da humies won' even see us comin' nor know wha' we gona do! we will be unstopppable! HarHarHar!"



(gotta leave so il update in about 30!)

Looking good - though I would want to do more about those sleek human lines of the original aircraft showing through... Do you have any idea how it compares size wise to a Dakkajet?

Im not too sure. Its pretty big in general length and width, if the body is a little slim. But yeh i think I want to add some more panels to the undercarriage to bulk it out and make it appear more ork'd. Also going to add more exhaust and general pipage.
