I’ve been a long time lurker on this forum but have so far failed to post anything, so thought I’d change that today, by sharing some pictures of my orks, led by Warboss Zork Skullkrak.

Waaagh! Skullkrak has been steadily rising over the autumn whilst I have been recovering from a nasty leg injury. I’ll warn ya dis Waaagh! is BIG…

My deff dread & some kans

Boss Skullkrak & his Nobz

Shoota boyz

Battle wagon

Slugga boyz

Big Mek

Looted wagons (stripped out for transports – just please don’t roll too many 1’s! Lol!!)

Deffkoptas

Grots

Lootas

And finally entire army – I reckon a comfortable 2250 points

C & C are welcome

**MunkeyKungFu**

Simply stunning!

I second this.
Dead killy and proper intimidating. I love that banner.

And the terrain is really nice, too.

**eviltrout**

Blood and rust, awesome

**lunarghost**

Blue, orks, and rust... So amazing, from the OSL to the detail given to each model. Simply great.

**CT GAMER**

Looks great.

**Config2**

PICTURE QUALITY ANGER!!!!!!!

They are such great models, they deserve good photos.

**CuddlySquig**

Awesome job, and they're not all Black Reach boyz! The character really comes out in a lot of them.

Unfortunately I've never liked the deffskulls, so I can only give it a 9/10

**Blacksails**

Fantastic army. Excellent work!

**Nightfall**

love the rust effect and bluess

**Norn King**

Unbelievable.

I wish i could break my leg and do this!

**Midnight Runner**

WOW DEMZ IZ SUM PROPA ORKSES!!

Seriously man, they look awesome in the photo's, every model (even down to the black reach boys). Difficult to pick a favourite so I'll pick 3; Battle Wagon, Deff Dread and Skullkrak/Ghazghkull conversion.

**JohnnoM**

Pure Liquid Awesome Sauce.

**Sepsis the Unclean**

Thanks for taking the time to look & comment everyone, all the c&c is taken onboard. & I see Waaagh! Skullkrak steadily gaining momentum over the next year. I would like to add some meganobz maybe...converted of course. All I gotta do is break another leg! Lol.

**Vampirate of Sartosa**

Daayum. What did you use to make the Warboss?
My one criticism is that it looks a little faded, but I suppose that looks better in person.

**kaiservonhugal**

Beautiful work!! The unified colors and weathering make for a truly exceptional army - this is Proppa!!

Warboss is a heavily converted ghazskull thraka with nobz bitz. Its easy to chop him up now he's finecast. And as for the fade, well what can I say but that I love to use weathering powders & my trusty old devlan mud. I don't like bright models, its just too unrealistic for me

**Mutley**

Good lord, this is amazing! I am just setting forth with a WIP of my own (Waaagh in progress), talk about inspiration. Love the blue glow coming from the view slits of the kanz and dredz, and the rust effect is cracking. Whats your technique for the rust and the glow? (So I can pinch it).

**Beatonator**

Stunning.

I would love for my Orks to be this standard! :(

What did you use to get the blood looking so.... bloody?

**A Kvlt Ghost**

Wow, these are some of the nicest looking skullz I've ever seen. Your OSL is looking good, have you airbrushed it on?

**L'Etat C'Est Moi**

**Digits**

Really nice looking army - I love the muted colours - works a treat!!!!!!

Firstly cheers for the kind comments, and glow is ice blue drybrushed around the area where the light is coming from. The further away from the light source I tend to mix in the surrounding colour with ice blue. For example silver.

The rust is as follows
1. Sponge on Scorched brown & fw orange rust 50:50
2. Sponge on fw orange rust
3. Sponge on boltgun metal
4. Devlan mud wash

Be sure to water down all weathering powders 1st, as don't want them too thick. Hope that helps.

Beatonator also asked about the blood, and the answer -
Tamiya clear red, flicked on randomly. Works a treat on khorne berzerkers too

**Ogryn**

You have some nice weathering techniques.

**Fox Box**

Beautiful, particularly your rust and weathering.

**Capitansolstice**

10/10

**MakeH**

Looking awesome!

**thesilverback**

Great Deff Skullz Mob, way to go.

**A Kvlt Ghost**

So you mix the weathering powder with the scorched brown? Interesting. What do you seal it with, or do you find you don't have to seal it if you mix it with paint?
