So I've been in the hobby for years, but sadly my Orks hopped on board a Hulk and disappeared into the warp for several years (basically skipping 8th edition until near the very end, with occasional raids but no concerted effort whilst I was embroiled in moving house three times). But now I have a hobby room big enough for a 6'x4' table, and shelves for da boys, and so it's time to get this WAAAGH! back up and running.

My passion is for converting, principally kitbashing and bitz-bashing. As I've regained my passion for building stuff, I figured it'd be best for me to have a log rather than a shedload of threads!

Firstly, a minor upgrade to my cybork squiggoth, which has its own thread so I won't put the pictures up on here as well:



Greenstuffed off the chaos symbol on the leg, think I did a reasonable job with the fur - Paint will tell! it might end up with a plate riveted over it!

To give context, here's a few full-army photos of what survived the moves (about half):





And then my next project, which is something a tiny big bigger and stompier than my cybork squiggoth:







I'm in the process of blowing the dust off (I started this over 5 years ago!!!). I'm going to give it the loadout options for either a gargantuan squiggoth (which I think it has a similar footprint to, despite the overall size being much larger!) and a kustom stompa, depending on which turrets I put on it.

Today I build some Supa-Lobbas - stay tuned for updates!

I've been working on fixing up some of my more battered creations to get them toward a decent tabletop standard, and the subject of my attention this weekend has been my Big Trakk I converted from a Chimera, Trukk and aftermarket trakks.






Recent additions are the gunners, which were absent having been looted for other things, and the start of the paint. My orks are bloodaxe, so use every camo scheme they can think of all over their vehicles to make sure they are camo'd no matter where they go!

I'll get photos of my garg-squiggoth as it now has a big gun on the side. not much more progress though

That's an impressive collection of orks! I like their approach to cammo (use every type you can think of so that you're always camoflaged). It makes perfect sense to me
