thanks to everyone for there support and encouragement. it gives me motivation (well extra anyway) to plod along doing the army. there is no end in sight plus with the nex storm claw box set coming out i think the orks will be coming very cheap to buy second hand in around six months or so-cant wait to get hold of that new war boss!!

WIP for the last two battle wagons, probably the most complex of them all-if not one of the biggest models in the army. The current stage is all about getting some silver in there, this adds a level of detailing and also lightens the model up ready for the blue. aiming to get the blue done over the next couple of days or so


Automatically Appended Next Post:

some solid blue colour on the model, now the first layers of rust are being built up


Automatically Appended Next Post:


several extra shades of rust added and now a few coats of wash in diffrent places to bring out the texture

baneblade looks good, really liking the looted kannon and the rust so far

@big fish this project was a total joy to do, so happy with the scrap metal i had at the start and whats there now. just need to name him

happyness comes in epic sizes

Tis the last battle wagon on the desk, and quite possibly the last one i will ever paint-simply i have more than i will ever need. Still very much in the WIP stage at the moment with the block colours done plus the rust. next up will be some shadeing on the working parts followed by the silver scratched being added.

Very nice models and colour scheme, very orky but also avoiding the walking pile of junk that models can end up looking like. I really like the super heavies.

Sent you a pm with some possible trade items.

this is the last one finished. i will get all five out and do a squad shot of them all. i think its time for a little orky break for now as im green and blued out. perhaps some rats to take my mind off things

Final trukk looks great, jonny. Rats should be a good distraction.

Thanks again everyone. comments are more than welcome-there will be more orks related things to come. ive allready got a good few boyz to finish. theres most if not all of a dread mob ready to do. Another flyer is still in the box, plus a load of charicters. Thats before i even unbox any of the new range.

Battlewagon steamrolla squad. now that they are all finished thought i would do a cheeky squad shot. very happy, very happy indeed. I did get a few skaven basecoated but they totaly held no intrest for me so they are back into there tunnel for another few months, back onto orks now started work on a couple of charicters to get them off the desk. Ive also got a trip into gw so undoubtedly will come away with some goodies from ther too

I really like the look of your rusted machines. And in my opinion (which is not as humble as it ought to be), one can never have enough (let alone "too many") battlewagons and battlefortresses. Keep at it. It all looks great.

got these two finished in record time, literaly under a day. good fun to paint tho the mouldings were not the best ive seen. been thinking of a unbound flash gitz army about 1500 points worth, probably not very good but could be a good little addition to the force as a whole, plus i could get the pirate boss in there too.

New recruitz have arrived, theres a couple of limited edition grotz, 10 flash gitz and these are all led by the infamous ork badrukk. time to get the glue and clippers out. 1500 points unbound incoming.

OMG these models are some of the best and biggest ork kits ive worked on, taken around two days just to build them, soooo good, definatley recomend these to anyone wanting a fun little project. i will get some pics up soon but im sure the gunz are bigger than a spacemarine whitch makes them like ten foot tall

Yeah, the flashgitz box is full of fun gubbinz. Those guns are silly big. Looking forward to seeing your waaagh! grow.

massive

heres the start of the freebooters, they take ages to assemble as theres sooo many choices, seems that it allmost impossible to get two models the same. theres some realy cool little details like meck legs and armz, one hand has a cigar on it too. one of the best gw kitz in ages


Automatically Appended Next Post:


the second half of a ten man squad, ive planned ahead with these as i figured i will never get the brus in behind the massive gunz they own. anyone unsure about these should definatley go get some

ive had a cople of spare afternoons and a hungover day off so heres the results so far, just block colour and a wash at theis stage

the first five are officialy off the desk. ive been insanley busy with work so had so little time to paint at the moment. these guys are straightforeward to paint but theres lots and ots of ubbins to to so they can take up a lot of time to do, worth it tho.

Just got the needed number of votes for one of my models in my galler, realy pleased with the result, thanks anyone who voted on it. Oh and also please vote on anything else in my gallery

and of course keeping things piratey is the next unit after being built

cute little pirate army shot

DAY OFF WORK. its been spmetime since ive had one of these, coffie made, ps3 at the ready and a robot pirate ork on the desk rearing to get finished, should be a good day aiming to get the meganobz finished off today, plus ive got a copy of zombicide board game and would like to get ten plus zombies ready to put into armypainters quick shade then its time to build up some more oversized pirates for my orks. will do a couple of pics tonite.

I got a little carried away painting up zombies the other day so did not get chance to upload any pics. so the day of painting went well to be fair, got the mega nobz finished off plus ive a cool bunch of zombicide models on the done pile, sadly no freebooters got finished, or even built as im still building now. heres the first nob coming up




Automatically Appended Next Post:
next up is the whole squad, realy expensive models these (in real money) Also i did notice that on the packageing it says four models but realy theres only three nobz and a grot oiler in the box-felt that was a little cheeky of gw. moaning aside theres a few leftover bits and pieces for later conversions and room to buy another box and not have the modles all looking the same. Painting wise these were some of the easyest models ive done for ages

Next big section of the army is to build up another ten ork squad of flash gitz. will add a few pics once they are done

made some progress, its slow i know but ive been insaneley busy at work and a few other things too. so ive managet build ten more of these guys and get there bases done. instead of batching them out ive gone and done one at a time, or in this case just one. hope you like im

theres seven left now to paint up on the desk, ive lost some of the momentum on them now so i may take a sidestep into something else for a short time, ive also got two more boxes that are not even opent yet-they may get changed down the local gw for a couple of boxex of mega nobs instead.

Ive got a weeks holiday to take, probably no updates going to happen but ive lots of painting scheduled in. aiming to get the whole ten ork squad of flash gitz finished and hopefully a trip into my local gw to get some reinforcements. Looking for potentialy some of the new ork walkers, a box of big gunz and possibly some knights to loot up. Oh and of couse i got a space hulkgame held back. So that there should keep me in models till the end of the year, plus whats ever is still on my desk and in the wardrobe

ive not done much noteworthy things with the greenies of late, there were three leadbelchers and a tyrant for my ogrekingdoms army alongside a huge unit of over one hundred skaven in it, all complited so i thought i would like a reprive from them all to get back to some good ol green paint. ive finished all the flashgitz now, kapting badrukk is on the desk with only his hat left to finish. I did put this model off for some time but now ive got work on him done he turns out to be a fun little fella to paint. hopefull i will get him done tonite then its onto one of many other projects, of whitch theres a few boyz still hanging round needing painting, a bommer still in the box, a crap ton of tanks to convert or my current but expensive quest will see me take on three knight titans and loot the tits off them. oh plus a stompa to finish and i do fancy both the gorka and morkanought, watch this slightly indecisive space.

Your work is awesome. Moar pics please!

had a little rummage threw my bitz box and pulled this out with a little conversion work added. only took five mins as most of it was allready there. onto get it painted

one more off the desk

got the little fella done
