Thanks Bama! I've got to finish those tankbustas I started before this kit sidetracked me What next? I dunno- Still no LEDs for the SeaView, so I dunno.

I'll Wait to base the Dakkajet until The other two kits are done and ready for basing- much easier to do them all at the same time.

boo on the lack of leds. yea you should prolly do some tank bustas as i should prolly do some marines that have been staring me down for the better part of 3 months

Just keeps getting better! Nicely done!

I for one do not think that Ork stuff needs highlights. That would imply there being a clean spot on the vehicle that is shiney enough to cast a glare.

Ork skin can get highlights, I mean even if they are dirty, they sweat right? Sheen = glare = highllight.

As for the Bomma, I haven't commented yet because words escape me. It looks SOOOOOOOOOOOOO good! you could go futher, and add some discoloration to the guns and ehaust pipes, maybe some oil leaks here and there streaking back across the wings or fusilage, but you will still blow the minds of anyone who sees it. I say keep it as is.

Oh, and if I buy one of these, will you paint it for me?

Dave wrote:Do you think it needs highlights?

Thats like asking "do Orks shower?" personally the answer is No

Thanks Jake! Sure I'll paint one! - My next two will utilize the airbrush more, save me some time with the brushwork. I wanted to use the color sequence from this month's WD to see how well it would turn out
It already has highlights..If you look closely, you will see orangish-red around the panel lines- without those, it would not pop, so SOME highlights are necessary, but perhaps more would be too distracting?

Hmmmm, maybe on a few panels, like where a grot was thrown in anger, and "accidentally" wiped a part of the aircraft clean.

I haven't heard of Chaos getting any new flyers, and I really don't like the ones they have:


I thought maybe I could Chaos-ify one of these Bommas.

hmm...I've never painted chaos stuff before.

damn dave it looks great!

you do realize that your painting skills have gone places? you are far further away from your once ago painting style when you painted your catachan force... really...i don´t try to sweeten here anything...

so have you got any clever plans for the base?


and what´s with the artistic picture taking? i swear you are going all professional now on us...the nerve...

Haha- Thanks Vik! It's all about reading, and practicing, but I really appreciate it my friend!

I don't know about the base yet Vik, It's better to base all three planes at the same time..later

When I started this blog (still less than a year ago) I couldn't take pictures for gak remember? -I am using the same Canon Powershot camera, but I suppose I have finally learned how to use it! but, The OTT daylight lamp I got is really the winner.

yeah... daylight... argh... one of these days^^

as for the base... may i throw an idea in the ring...? try some cotton wool stiffened with PVA to make nice fluffy clouds... and have them bommas soar above the clouds... free orks... ^^

I looked, and I don't have any cotton balls, hafta get some, but that is a great idea Vik!

It made me want to make good on the Size Comparison request!

Great work! Love the paint job!

now that looks like a nice chase scene!...and it looks as if the valk is almost 1.5 of the bomma...maybe even more...

i like the second pic looks like he is lining up for the kill to add another tick to his kill tally

You have done an amazing job on that plane. The red looks really good. Did you use the new GW paints on this? I'm so tempted to pick up some of the Ork flyers for my Fiancee's ork army.. but since shes got loads to paint I'll just have to spend that money on stuff for me

THanks Regnak! -Except for the basecoat (Badger Crimson is the exact same as Mephiston Red) I pretty much used all new GW paints AND used the painting technique in this month's White Dwarf.

Thanks Not_u- I suppose this same technique could be used to "imperial-ify" and orky jet if that is what you wanted to do

This is the Burna-Bommer- SO I thought I'd give it a bit of a Harrier look.

Great work, Dave! I admire your commitment to realism when it comes to your small, plastic, aliens from the distant future
In all seriousness, I think it's the little things like "dem new teef and metl' plates" that make a model awesome. Keep it up!
I'm not completely sold on the harrier look yet, but I look forward to seeing what you do with it!

It's just blu-tacked and crooked, but suitably Harrier load-ish methinks.

Looking good Dave!!!

I think you should attempt an EE Lighning for your third bommer!!!

THanks Childe!- But the third is the dive Bomma, so it needs to scream

it can still scream lols... the only reason I suggested the Lightning was because the only problem I have with the Ork bommer kit is the lack of interchangable noses, I always liked the recessed snub nosed version

and I refuse to start an ork army just to do it lols

Well, the nose can easily be cut off and replaced

how would you go about making it rounded if you were to do it? just out of curiosity lols

But it needs to be open, unless you are going to sculpt new intakes for the big jet engine.

Rounded, likr to a point? Well I guess I'd bend interlocking layers of thin PC to start with, for orky justs, just add rivets and it's believeable, for something needing to be smoother, you'd almost need to vacu-form over a master carving or something.

I've seen bigger jets with smaller intakes tbh... look at the F-22 and its sister aircraft.

I hadn't thought of interlocking sheets of PC... hmmm

Not with a single engine craft you haven't twin engines only need to do 1/2 the work.

well couldnt you do like vik and use the nose cone from a bottle rocket. not saying actual bottle rockets will work but the bigger rockets with the plastic nose cones just to shape maybe?

The british Hawk Jetfighter trainer craft:



it has twin intakes for one engine, which don't look that dissimilar from the bommer tbh. and its wing intakes are proportionally the same as the Hawk it seems.

but thats just me lols, I guess everyone sees this kind of thing differently

ahh..Those twin intakes are for the thrusters on the bomma...extra engines


Automatically Appended Next Post:
..You could always cut out the big main engine part pretty easily too. Nice riveted line and hard edge to guide your knife even!

see?

I guess they could be for both... or possibly add a scoop intake on the belly or just behind the pilot on its back... so many options so little time

You've got al lthe time in the world, just go get a bommer kit and git to work!

haha.. maybe... I have slightly been tempted with grot army... I just don't like orks... so If I got a bomma kit it'd have a gak-ton of grots working it

You don't need to start a new army just because you want to build a cool model ya know


Sturdy reinforcements

So true Dave, but it does lead me to collect more of that Army of models,,,right now my 'crons are looking at how expensive it is for their reinforcements. I mean 3 wraith models of tomb blades for just about 50bucks is crazy!

Yeah..I know..It is best just to collect the models you like IMHO- Necrons are cool and all, they just don't interest me personally.

Nice, and yeah, but for me the new codex allows me to think of a Necron high lord speaking like John Malcovich in that oddly laid back, yet menacing tone,.

HAHA I love John Malkovich! - Have you ever seen the movie "Being John Malkovich" ?

Con Air... Cyrus the Virus.. John Malkovich at his evil sarcastic best!!!

That is just silly.

but real

That is one messed up cat!

The Bomma offers so many ways to make it.

True Shas I was saying due to re reading the rules... otherwise I'd never have noticed

YOU tell the Mek his designs are against the rules..I dare you!

lols Orks are the only army tat you can build their vehicles wrongly, but have then still be totally right

Ive tried some orky scratchbuilds in the past, but find it really hard. I just cant get them scrappy enough. I'll stick with my straight lined imperail vehicles I think

LOL! I have the ideas that if I had a junkyard, welding gear, and fuel, I could make me working scrapper vehicles, find some weapons or make 'em and watch out!

..Don't forget your riveting gear Loota Shas!

Montrano, sounds like you're trying to make it look like something else, don't just go wit da flow.

that reminds me.. did you see the video of the guy who turned a dead cat into a remote control helicat!.. its horrible, but hilarious

Yeah, you have ta go crazy when making Orky stuff, mad genius they are!

Not too crazy though.

Saw this in the background- nice!



I'll be printing that up and displaying it prominently when I re-start my Necromunda terrain.

Curious about the new Bomma- how does it land? I mean besides the obvious Orky fiery crash.

Good Question!

Skids on the wings?

It looks like the wings are touching on both sides, yes? If so, yes, add some skids, you're golden!

Those tires look great on that plane! Super awesome!

Thanks Vit!

thats awsome dave!

This is by the coolest conversion I have ever seen.

Very well done Dave! skids on the tips, good landing gear under the fuselage. Odd that Orks truly get aerodynamics in the 41st millenium eh?

I love it Dave, for me the only thing I'd change would be to drop the back end down so it's 10-20mm lower than the front. but thats just me lols.

Jokaero (Rogue Trader)

Many thanks, I will pay (reasonably) handsomely for these classic mini's!!!!

i want a Gyrnix, those models are awsome! and i will pay exacltly .01$ more than him ^ for one



(only joking childe, i DO want it, but have no need for one, meaning that i dont plan on buying one )

Tis for my Inquisitor

that makes sense, mine is more for the fact that i want minature cats!

that also makes sense lols...

I'm trying to do an Inquisitorial retinue based around Rogue trader Xenos... theres a couple of figures that'll be converted like the inquisitor, the tri-bane (ethreal beings = counts as death cultists) and the penitent-man (tru-scale SM with physical inhibitor = counts as acolyte), Explorator-biologists (counts as acolytes), the rest will either be Rogue trader stuff: Deiurg, Jokaero, Gyrinx. or new stuff: Astropath (IG imperial advisor).

tis a nice little side project to do tbh while I'm building up my nids, plus they'll act as the Protectorate of Calliope VI, along with my SoB Order of the Sacred Rose conclave.

I have a new Jokaero Weaponsmith, but you can't have him

Lols, I really want the original tbh... along with the death ferret

the death ferret looks like a stuft animal! thats why its funny, but i like the new AND old monkeys, the new one because its cool, but the old one because its a mokey! btw childe interested in seeing your =][=!

MOAR RIVETS?

if your rivets dont have rivets, then you aint no riveteer!

Book Of RogueWolves, Chapter 1, Verse 1..

that doesnt sound that dissimilar to the Book of Nom: 1:1, "if your Gribbly bits, don't have gribbly bits, then you ain't no Nid!"

what about this gem?

"I.. have a dream, that one day, a Rivet will not be judged by its size or state (liquid/solid) but by its rivetting nature!" - Rogue Wolves

again, sounds like something from the book of nom... except this time it'd be indecent of me to publish that particular line

.. im sure theres a couple chapters from the book of nom that arnt decent...

Thats cool dude, sorry for the misunderstanding, my humour and the interwebz doesnt exactly make good bedfellowes lols.

I think that Comic Sans should be the universally recognized sarcasm font

Anyways...I was curious what happened if you thinned and airbrushed the new Citadel base paints...
This thread helped

Jokaero Orange about 30%/70% Testors thinner (I did not pay that much for it )

With the ol' Badger 150



One coat..I think I over-thinned a bit, but it will get at least a second coat

..Since I'm getting no bumpage , and I'm waiting on paint to dry...check out Vol 18!

I dont know how i missed this update, but I did, and I like the color choice on this second plane, and you make me envious to the fact that i keep pushing pack my (buy an airbrush) day!

Haha that magazine/book looks awesome.

Loving the colour choice on the second plane.

Thanks guys!
Do It Rogue!!
Paasche or Badger, both great, reliable, low cost brushes!

Starting to look good!

Any chance you know how well that compares to the old Solar Orange foundation color wise?

I'm sorry, I don't know, I have quite a few of the old foundation paints, but I don't have that one.

..In my Patented Dry-Fasta (R) turbo-charged turbo-dry system

..But I need to go to bed, then to work, all that crap before I get to paint anymore...

Well you suck Dave... I'd have thought by now you'd have perfected sleep-painting... looking good so far, are you going any redder for "da red paint jobb" look, but also are you going to correct the bleed-through on the go fasta flames?

I ask deese orky t'ings 'coz i 'az to keep da silly 'ooomie on iz stinkin' toes!!!

I like the sunshine on the front... which means on your next plane, paint it purple, put a yellow sun, and on the wings put Rasin Bran

No, it won't be red, it will be orange with red flames everywhere, and no, I'm going to keep the flames looking like gak!

Rogue...no..just no.

Fair enough dave, thought I'd ask... as I said, I have to keep you on your toes

what are you going to use as your shade/wash/weathering for the cracks?

Well, it is already washed with Fuegan Orange shade, If I need darker I'll use Didi's Magic ink or nuln oil or agrax earthshade, I won't know what it needs until I sit down to paint more though. You can't really plan it, you just have to see what it needs and do it.

true enough dude, Orks seem to be an army you can't plan in any way.

Unless you plan not to plan them.

Black works really well for yellow paint, it seems it would work well for orange too, but I dunno..this is all experimental at this point. I may decide to start all over yet..I dunno.

Have you considered a very deep red-black for the recesses? might add as a heavy but nice contrast between the panels.

Most any color trimmed w/ black (or black trimmed w/ most any color) seems to work well w/ Orks.

I did pick up some red wash too...hmmm..maybe

..You still have to do it in layers though, rule of thumb is always to shade light to dark.

Sounds like a plan!

Dave the second plane is looking good so far. Hey, are you going to clean up the flames any? (dodges the flying shoe) Just kidding, I can't wait to see how it turns out!

I'll have a supply drop rolling to you next week.

Sweet! - I still need to send you those pillars too homey!

I've promised to ship more things than I have given time for..My Apologies to:

You Galorn- I owe you the pillars, anything else?

Madmarty- Sniper base

Jake- Nuka Cola machine (which still isn't built), did I promise you anything else?

LDD- Cricut-ed Aquillas
