Whichever I feel like using at the time. Now I THOUGHT I was being kinda clever in using this as a basis for a warkopta (which im hopeing makes it into the next codex, my flgs dosent allow forgeworld for some reason) but until its added I just use it as a dakka jet. Can you even loot flyers? The rules came out before they were added. Anyway this is it PRE detail work and damage. Just to get an idea of the basic look.

Also this idea although thought up by myself, has been done a lot. I found tons of pics on google similarly built after I built it heh. I don't mind it not being unique, And I like the way its turning out so far.

They are orks they can loota anything. You could loot a tank and add some wings and call it a blitz bomba.

What a great conversion.

The only thing I'd say about this is that it looks a bit pristine. The paint looks new and fresh, there are only a few spikes and exhausts. I'd just think about going a bit further, maybe painting a rusty or chipped paint effect on, and giving it some further Orkification. That being said, I love the conversion, and you have plenty of dakka on there

Yup too prestine. Im not done with it yet, just got the basic colors slapped on. Battledamage inking and highlighting comes next, hopefully have some time soon for that.

Mostly done, just some touchups to do. Pretty pleased with it.

Finished a jet too. I think im tired of painting now heh.

Excellent, the damage really makes it!

Did you deliberately mount the fins on the back of the jet the wrong way around?

Yup, partly to set it apart from every other jet and be a bit more unique, and partly because it fits better in the case, cuts 2 inches off the overhang at the end. Also the flaps are backwards, but as long as orks believe it works it works, so its fine.

Thanks, I like it. First time trying this particular damage type of painting, was afraid since it was my first try it would turn out crappy, but I watched some videos and it turned out alright. Definatley good enough for my average paint skills.

Far to swag.
(awesome)
