Thank you happened to have some chimeras laying around. I hope they come out with looted wagons in 8th edition or people are ok with them as trukks.
(not including the wash) still working on the skin think I should have grabbed a different middle paint 1 warboss green 1 other, then shrak green rather than wb green shrak green and camo green. The shark green is bright and or a higher chroma. My solution was to mix 1 part warboss green 2 parts shark green then just strait shark green and finally a mix of shrak green and camo for highlights. With a bit of trial and error think I’m getting somthing. The one on the far right is my latest trial.

Looks great, one thing I have found for the pictures if they show up sideways was to save them to your computer, turn them in photo viewer and then edit the post and re upload them. It should fix the sideways viewing. Its also a little hard to figure out what was on the war boss in the pictures so a little explanation would be nice. As far as looted wagons (Trukks) you should be fine, most players look at that and go yup that is Ork stuff. Keep it up!, I look forward to seeing them evolve.

Thanks and I rotated them in my phone then saved them and rotated them back and saved them again seemed to fix the issue. As far as the nob boss is concerned it has to do with the fan fluff I came up with. Basically a grechin sowed onto a nob or nob boss by a pain boy. I was going to use the real arms and legs of a gretchin but only two models come with separate ones and I figured since the grechin was basically dead before had it would be fine with a rough almost mutated tumer look.
Thanks for the interest in the trukks

Awesome story on the Nob Boss, he should look great painted up!

I always love seeing people working on orks. Keep up the good work!

Thanks picked them for the custom built things and close combat. I like your squigoth herd pretty good idea with the dino toys!

Still getting the hang of painting the models. It is pulling together but looks a bit cartoony. I hope I can pull it together tomorrow and make a smother transition, and fix the rough paint job in parts!

Lookign nice. For asmoother transtition, a 1/3yellow, 1/3green or devlan mud wash, and 1/3 water wash does wonders for me. With thanks to MajorTom11 for the suggestion, check out his thread if you want some interesting advice on paint, colour transitions, etc.
