Subject: Re:Ork - Scratch built and Converted models (and some Chaos)
Do you draw up plans or just have an idea in your head and then start building? I just start building my stuff. I find it easier to do for Orks then to have a plan and try to stick with it.
I would be interested I seeing your take on a FW Lifta Droppa. I have been contemplating on building one for myself and am not sure where to start.
Well thanks for posting all of your great creations and hope to see more in the future.

Sooooo late posting this reply!! (Just by a few years...takes n Ork a bit to fink fings thru)
Anyway, wazzoo2000 you were lookin fer 'drop pods fer da Boyz. Well, in the 2nd battle for Armageddon (Actually the 3rd Battle for Armageddon, just the 2nd by the Greenskins) Lord Ghaz dropped Roks onto the planet, and then they became Fortresses/Bastions/Rally Points, what have you.
That could be a really cool scratch built fortress.
Oh, and one other thing Waz...me being a nosey Yank and all, Why have ya not givin 40K a row? Ya might enjoy it mate. Either way, your one of the best I've seen, and I've been doing this for over 20 years. And I'd like to take a minute and say Thank You. You've inspired a bunch of us and have are creativity flowing...so thank you.
Sincerely, A.J.
