Nice! That's one way to go. Maybe because I am insane, I intend to make 15 of every mek gun option (clearly I am insane), but this works really well, too. Probably better than my idea, actually. Hmmm.

are those mek guns straight out the box? or was there some addisions-the lobba looks great

Actually Warboss_Waaazag your idea sounds awesome, you can never have enough big guns! KaBoomy!

@ jonny5 Alot of addition, Kannon and Zapp are from the Battlewagon, the lobba is mainly from Bomber left overs, the wheels are biker wheels, and the gun shield is custom and the turn table is a top off a oil barrel.

Hello there,

I've finally manged to finish my second Grot unit. pics -







I've also been playing about with another Ork boss, he is very WIP but here you go -





I really wanted to make a really fat ork, needs alot of work tho.

cheers.

Looking good. I can see what you are aiming for with th warboss..

I tried this a while ago you need plenty of gs work but it does look effective when done

Really interesting Orks so far. I'm very impressed with the kustomization and the wasteland look. Where do you get (or how do you make) all the heads with goggles and hoods?

Keep 'em coming! I love it.

Awesome work SJM
Keep em comming ^^
Grtz

Thanks for the words and comments guys.

I have been working on the Mek gun unit, they need a little more work but here is the progress with the 5 gun carriages, the 4 with the turn tables are going to be the kannon/Zzap/lobbas.





Really didn't like the standard gun shield so that is where the main work has gone.

Thanks!

I love your style with the orks, great stuff mate, very inspiring!

Guns look cool, they're on my to do list too.

Hello all,

I've been doing some more work on the guns and crew. The guns are finished, magnetised and ready to be primed. Unfortunately I seem to have 1 Kannon and Zzap gun short but never mind, I hope I can pick them up in the future. Pics-







I also have been working on the crew, 10 out of 15 just about there, they need some modelling putty work and bases finished. pics-





I’m quite happy with this one, I made him his own little viewing platform and communications …errr thing. Pics –







Thanks for looking!

That communicating grot....lovin it
Great work SJM.
Keep those updates comming
Regards
Mark

Thanks ayoku, hopefully I'll start some painting again this week so I can tidy up, I make a right when I'm converting!

Hey all,

Working through the big gun crew, I'll be glad to see the back of grotz



5 done, 11 to go!

Cheers

Great work! I don't know how this thread has escaped my attention until now. All those conversions...you're a more ambitious man than I. Love Rooster and the use of hair beyond the simple topknot that the odd boy has. Takes me back, that does.

Wow, for what seems like ages... I have finally finished the magnetized big gun unit. Had to put some pictures up, sorry but they're not the best quality. I'll endeavour to take some better ones if anyone is interested.

Thanks for looking!!

Very nice !!! unusual! Cyborgs - super idea! Thank you for sharing the photo.

I love this. Disappointed I'd somehow missed it up to this point.

Also like that someone else is playing with more "upright" Orks like the ones I'm in the process of converting. They really do get an entirely different kind of menace once they're not so comically hunched over with their heads sticking out of their chests.

Thanks for comments fellas.

Been back to converting after what seems a long time! I almost forgot how annoying it is to drill metal models by hand!

I managed to pick the Gorkamorka boss for £3 as it was damaged, always want to do something with him, and I guess I came up with this

Take it easy.

Happened to see one of your wip in the gallery and found this thread. Glad I did, love the craziness of your orks I'll definitely keep up with this can't wait to see more.

Cool warboss conversion.

He looks magnificent, brilliant work bud.

Thanks for the comments fellas, busy working on some Gorkamorka Nobs, I think I'll use them as boyz to go with the wolf head Boss.

I really have to work on the quality of my photos

Anyway, here are 4 orks ready for paint, made from old Gorkamorka stuff I've picked up, I'm sure you get the idea.



Cheers.

The sheer amount of conversions in your army is incredible considering the quality you put into each piece.

Thanks Rollawaythestone for the comment, hope you enjoy.

This is some great work. The grot radio operator is hilarious, love it.

Thanks Pete Melvin, I will endeavour to get some better pictures up soon of the guns and crew.

Fearless converting, imaginative and technically so well done, all the time keeping the almost comedic vibe of orks. A near perfect ork army. I check this thread daily so please keep it coming
