Oi you! Yeah, you! ' Av a sit down 'ere an' let Grampa Gazgutz spin ya a story! You 'eard the story of 'ow we came ta be, boy? Nah? Ow'z about I tell you who we is then, yeah?
If my memory serv's, It goes a little sumfin like this:
Long, long ago, when da universe was jus' a snotling, Gork n' Mork was avin' a diskushun 'bout who was tha punchiest an' who was the most brainy-like, an' it went sumfin' like this:
"Oi! Mork! I 'eard tell uv' you sayin' you was the most punchiest, eh?" yelled Gork.
"Yeah, s'the truth! Wot, you think you is more punchier or sumfin?" bellowed Mork.
"Zoggin' 'ell I do! I's more smart-like too!"
"WOT? YOU CALLIN ME DUMB OR SUMFIN?" yelled Mork, enraged.
"YEAH, YOU WANNA MAKE SUMFIN OF IT?" screamed Gork.
"YOUR ZOGGIN' RIGHT I DO! ILL TEAR YA ZOGGIN-Oi, Wot's this?" said Mork.
"Wot's wot?" asked Gork, turning to look over his shoulder. "I don't see nuffin'!"
Gork turned back an' got a face full uv' Mork's fist.
"OI! YA ZOGGIN' SNEEKY LI'L SNOT!" Gork roared. "I' LL ZOGGIN' KILL YA FOR THAT!"
Gork pulled his knife and slashed Mork 'cross the jaw. A drop uv blood spilled out an' splatt-ad to tha ground.
On tha surface of tha universe, that drop o' blood made ripples, an da ripples made waves. A red tide wash'd ova' tha worlds, killin' everythin' and drownin' everythin' else. Everythin' burned, 'umies an' zen-oes alike.
We is that wave, boy. We is that blood.
We crush an' burn an' loot an' kill, an' we does it the best, 'cos we is the
BLOOD UV MORK!
Hi, Dakkites!
I've had a few requests to start a plog for my Blood of Mork orks, so I guess that's what I'm doing!
They are a klan that, obviously, worships primarily Mork.
I'm currently working on a unit of converted AoBR Nobz, which I hope I'll get to posting about soon (pics or it didn't happen, am I right?).
Hope you'll enjoy following my plog (you damn well better  ) and I'll get to posting soon.
Hadouken for the  god,

Ah, finally an update!
Okay, so I've converted all of my Nobz now, But I only have finished shots of two (Not entirely finished actually, they're all glued together now, here they're blu-tacked).
The other two are a normal choppa/slugga nob and a WAAAGH! banner nob.
I'm waiting for some bitz to get delivered currently, to make them a bit more 'Ornate'.
Hope you like!
On to the pics:
Nob 1: Tha Reepa Boy!
Nob 2: Tha Butcha Boy!
More pics of the other two coming (and some good fluff, too)!

Post by: HadoukenAvenger
Well, after recieving some bits from ModelBits.co. uk, I went to work with a knife and some glue.
Here's the results (sorry about the rushed images, my photo-shooting spot is occupied):
The Banna Nob (his banna was painted seperately, no pics yet):
The 'Murda Boy':
I was thinking of adding some wires and worky gubbinz to the chain-axe, but I think it fits in well with this boy, that I converted a while ago:
I added a Gun/Knife pack to my 'Reepa Boy's' back, to resolve any "Double CCW" disputes.
Also, my first piece of terrain!
FENCE!
Electric fence, to be precise. The posts are made from ice cream sticks, the wire is....well, wire, the sign is a nail and some thin plastic and the power box is part of a nobz' slugga. It's based on some kind of foam and reinforced with my ghetto-style plasticard (plastic dinner plates. I can't find ANYWHERE in Aus that sells the real stuff.).
Hope you like!,
H.A.

Haha that fence sign is priceless! Your opening argument between Gork and Mork is brilliant too.
Good work so far!

Post by: HadoukenAvenger
Aight, so here's some progress on tha nobz. Banna Nob iz Finished! The Auto-Adjust feature went to town with the skin colours, so bear in mind it is high-lighted a bit more than in the pics. Also, I didn't manage to get an in-focus shot of it, but the left pauldron (shoulder pad) is roughly/haphazardly painted with iyanden darksun (yellow). My nobz will all have yellow on one or two objects on their person, painted in this same style. A penny for your thoughts, H.A

That's the auto adjust again. They've got a few layers of Devlan Messiah on them, so they're fairly browny-yellowy-white, as opposed to pearly. ghosty wrote:I love the reaper guy, but he really should have a skull mask and a hood
I knew I forgot something! Nah, I'm saving the skull mask+hood for a SeCrEt PrOjEcT.....sometime in the future. Great Unclean One wrote: Looking pretty damn good man! Keep up the good work and I've got to say, there isn't much wrong on that banner ork, he's looking like a sound model to me. ^^

While searching the forums for a good name for my upcoming Big Mek, I found this awesome site:
http://www.ergotoxin.webs.com/
It was created by Ergotoxin here on dakka and generates ork names, which IMHO is extremely useful.
Here are my favourites from what I got:
"Da Big Bad" Gasbag
"Da Slayer" undefinedbag (glitches FTW)
Badfingaz
Dictator Warpchop
Grabrod (  )
Try it out!

My big brutha used to use coffee grounds i think. That's a pretty easy one, and then you just drybrush the tops a bit. Sand is also nice because it's light colored to start with so it makes the comparatively darker model stand out all good.
27078
Post by: HadoukenAvenger
The base does have sand on it, it's just horribly fine textured. My old sand which came in the starter pack was much coarser, I miss it :(

Possibly then add some more dots or lumps of (I assume) of PVa and re-dip it in the sand, give to some lumps or something  Good stuff!

Sorry everyone, the Nobz are going away for the time being. I've assembled and started painting my Battlewagon, and am planning a centre-piece/diorama for my army. I currently have Wargaming ADD, and will be jumping and bouncing from project to project accordingly.
Will be updating soon!
Automatically Appended Next Post,Because Hadouken Is Too Bloody Lazy To Do It Himself:
Alright, went and took some pictures, although I didn't get any of the painted warboss base, so here's my Battlewagon so far:
That last image was just to show the armour plates/shields added around the hatch.
Some horribly blurry pics of the captain/commander/dude/whatever:
Looks much better in person, trust me. My camera's macro setting isn't very........macro.....ish.

UPDATE! FINALLY. GOSH. Well, first of all, my first attempt at 'proppa skulptin', using GS for anything other than filling gaps and such. I call him Dave. Yes, just Dave. He's a 'Runna Squig' or maybe a 'Sprinta Squig' and his baby, whose name is 'Ankle Bite-a' Here he is, be kind to him, he's been recently auto-adjusted: My Painted AoBR Warboss base: And a better, un-altered, picture of my Battlewagon Komanda: Automatically Appended Next Post: Also, although not Ork related, I converted and painted a Termie Captain, just for fun. The sword arm is from the black reach commander/captain/dude in a cape guy, it's completely AoBR.

I'm hoping to get Dave and Bite-a primed today, and I'll probably have them finished by tommorow. I also plan to scuplt another one or two, maybe as bomb squigs. I was wondering if anyone had a size comparison pic of a squig next to a boy or a grot, as Dave is roughly up to a boy's shoulders.

If your still looking for plasticard in Aus there is an Aus ebay store where you can get some it's called Back to base-ix and it also sells bitz and as the name suggests some nice resin bases.

@NakedBatBoy: Quid Pro Quo...or something  Link Fixed also! @Ramos Asura: I'm not sure how much Ork fluff you've read, but a reason for their skin colour could be that they adapted to camouflage on their home planet, or that their spores mixed with that of native plants, prorducing red-skinned orks. I try not to draw attention to the fact that I actually haven't scientifically explained my ork's skin colour (I've only explained their view on it). Thanks for the input on my BW and BM, I don't seem to get much constructive criticism here, only kudos @SilverMK2: Thank you, you mean you weren't already? I'm hurt, silver!

No, no, no. The gretchin didn't steal the exhibit, the grinchin stole CHRISTMAS! You can only view the exhibit if your avatars don the patented Morkmas hats and you spin around three times...(or you could give me a minute to go catch those thieving grots and get my photos back) But seriously guys, where are your Morkmas hats? All the biggest an'most shootiest bosses are wear'n em! EDIT: There's a lot on my list, so what do you guys want to see most? I'll do those ones first.

Yeah, waiting is pretty hard with so many brains to consume.
Pics hopefully in about an hour.
Not much waiting required.
Go eat some brains.

Is this the right place? There's pics and stuff appeared here. Now I'm all confused...oh, no, that's just normal.
Looks like there's been a party going on, the guard and orks taking some time out from the eternal warring to vogue out a little at the local disco
The marine-boy looks interesting, and nice job on the buggy. Cool bit of orky painting on the front panel too.

Pics? Here?
Seriously, I love what you did to the buggy. You didn't mess up the basic shape yet you created a totally different (and much cooler vehicle. I'm guessing the hill is impassable since no mini could ever stand up on that thing?

Ork posing is looking good. Nice work on the buggies. Where's that Big Mek then?
27078
Post by: HadoukenAvenger
@monkeytroll: Yeah, I think someone came and did something to my blog.
No disco here, though. When the diorama's done, it's going to look more like a MURDER ON THE DANCE FLOOR.
....
Thanks, it's all mostly concept, but I like the leaner look of the Power Nob. I'm glad you like the buggy.
@Commy K: I don't know, man. Something's definitely out of place here. Thanks for the words, I was brainstorming the buggy foor a few months, but most of it was spontaneous ingenuity  Yeah, the hill count's as impassable and was mainly made to break L.O.S. There's a fence that goes with it (Page 1 or 2) that counts as dangerous.
@A. Kasi: Thanks! I've been working on getting more realistic (yet interesting) posing, to make my army less uniform. You really want to see the big mek? It's been done and redone so many times that it's sitting at a rough torso shape on a piece of copper wire. Pics?
Thanks,
H. Avenger.

Alright, so today I pick up my warboss (while I'm at home sick) and give him a thinking over for about half an hour. While starting to piece together some parts, I notice the rough torso-shaped blob of greenstuff on a piece of wire sticking out of my table that was to be my glorious Big Mek.
I pick it up.
And I realise the Big Mek inside. I had started off focusing on the idea of a testosterone-pumped jock with an oversized wrench, but in my burst of inspiration, I've started building some deranged cross between a mad scientist and a nightmare machine.
So, I started building parts for him, my brain working in overtime to fashion a monster of gears, flesh and sharp objects, something you'd imagine crawling through the shadows in the battlefield, creeping down into trenches, jaw-pincers clacking, and out again with a set of newly-claimed skulls hanging from his blood-stained metal claws.
He will be your worst nightmare.
Just tiny.
And made of plastic and greenstuff.
Pictures of progress soon.

Indeed I don't promise much, because of the whole not getting things done. Though maybe if I did I would get stuff done by the way I work with promises and upholding them...
And HA... continue to resume the process of getting us some pics (or, by the right of the internet, it will have never happened)

Hi, remember me?
No? Not surprising.
Well, there isn't going to be any updates in a while, I'm way too busy these days. In a few weeks I'll be starting a terrain board, I'll post it here. But that won't be for a while, so...
Yeah.

I may have to steal your Mek idea and add it to my own very large list of things to do.. Though, like you, I've been too busy to update..
Love the buggy!

Hey, feel free. My mek has evolved quite a bit since then, anyway.
And thanks, I'm quite proud of it.
