That huge power fist on the biker boss looks kick ass! However, I'll have to point out that there are still mouldlines on it

Putting shields on nobs is a great idea, but yes, you need thicker material.....

Well holy gak.........there IS still some mold lines on it....and under the klaws....what a gakky spot to forget to demold lol. OK Ill have to get creative on how to fix this problem. Also looking at the shields, they do look a bit thin, see what I can do about that, even if I have to just rip them off and redue bigger ones, thats fine, as its only 2 shields so far

I'd rip them off and make a few identical ones. I guess if you glue three of them on top of each other you're fine

This is brilliant stuff, KC!

The rust on the warboss is very well done. Is it bad that I saw the clear gubbin on the front, and thought it was his epic shot glass? Its 10:45AM here and I'm already thinking about starting the July 4th celebratin' early!

For trophies you could give him an epic pole on the back of the bike, you know, for impaling crap.

I need to see that guntrukk all riveted. And that cattle catcher thingamabobber on the front is great, really ties it all together.

Liking the mega nobz look but i think they need some more daka as the slugga's are a bit weak

Well Im thinking of running them with combi skorchas, so they should all get those in the future


Hmmm......a pole on the back? Thats making me thing flag pole..... of some kind. I might be getting an idear!

Try to give hin a nice flag or banner in the back of the bike, It would give the whole mini some movement.
The flag from the fantasy boar boyz should be perfect or the skaven doom wheel one...

Oki Doki. Well I hashed out my Warbosses trophy rack. Its a bit hard to see everything since its all black, but Im sure you can make it out for now anyways. Also better shots of his robo arm of doom!!! And for kicks, I decided to work on the last 2 Deffkoptas that he is going to be riding with into battle, when these are done, Ill have 5 built. Only problem, is now Im going to rip the rokkits off the other 3 I made previously, and swap those with the stock TL BigShootas. Im thinking 15 TL str5 shots will do a number on a unit before they assault. Also Im adding 1 buzzsaw into the group, so they can at least do some damage when they get stuck in.

OK enough rattling, heres some pics





And the "koptas"

P.S,

On the bosses banner, I plan on panting it all SM looking, but make it just nasty looking, and then graffiti something over the front like ZOG OFF or some other typical Ork thing

How did you make the Turbine for your deff koptaz? I've been wanting to make some turbines for some nob bikers (in my quest to play units which will infuriate my opponents and make them not play with me ever again).

Biker boss and koptas look freaking bangin!

Well the turbines were much easier then I thought, thankfully, because the last time I tried turbines on something else, it looked horrible. But these are the end of the Krazy glue brand tubes, the "rotor" inside is the end of missiles Ive had laying around. But those would be as easy to make as a glass of water. Some tube, little fins from plasticard and something roundish for the top of the tube. So basically, make a tiny missile and presto, rotor. Then the exhaust parts is just random tubing.




And thanks for the comments on my work so far. I seem to have a knack for converting deffkoptas, into deffrandom flying vehicles of cool stuff

Really love the koptas, the camo paint job looks good as well

Oh no Im repainting them. They were something else entirely. So that paint will not be there once painted. I loot in the truest sense of the word

OK took a group photo of the koptas mob and the boss together to keep my spirits up! Basically, I just need to make 5 TL bigshootas and then add rivets like a mofo to the 2 I just recently did, then I get to send everything to the painting block. Luckily 3 of the koptas are primed and rusted a bit. Granted I paint things in white now, but oh well, Ill just paint the skin white and go from there. Enjoy

I guessed that the painting would disappear, but still... I like that camo scheme!

Well thanks for that I painted those waaaaay back when I just got into Orks, and wasnt sure what exactly what klan I was going to go with, so I tried pretty much everything. Eventually I settled on BadMoonz and havnt looked back since

Keep up the good work KC.

Many thanks Shadowbrand! Glad to see that your rare posting was used in my thread

Hey there KC, been a while! Da Waaagh!!! is lookin' gud!

Why thank you kind sir. I think Today Im going to see about getting some painting done. Though for that, I need white primer. Heres hoping, because Im getting sick of building things right now, and my finger tips would appreciate the break

BY THE NINE!!!! er..............GORK n MORK! While being a tag along at a hardware store today, I actually found some FLAT yellow spray paint. Best part is, I think its close enough to a respectable Badmoons yellow! And its only $3ish. Now Ive looked on and off for MONTHS for something like that, becuase Im a cheap ass and dont like paying full hobby price for my hobby and never found it. But today.... PAYDIRT! Even if not, I know of a can of gloss yellow that is eye melting yellow, that I could simply matte varnish it, which even then all together its like $7 for the yellow and matte varnish.


Just wanted to share the news. Also, been painting today, so I should have some lootas and some former AOBR boyz turned shoota boyz ready to go here soon.

Well, Ive decided it was time to get some paint to brush, and started the other day. Foolishly I had a couple different minis in various stages of paint, and figured "I know! Ill plop them all together and finish them all up....AND! Ive got a couple shootas in white primer too, lets get them on the table" Idiot. It was grueling to say the least. But Ive got a boat load of boyz really close to completion, and the rest of my lootas mostly painted as well AND I added some color to my BikerBoss and his entourage of deffkopptas. What was I thinking.


Anywho, they are all based, just need a highlight on the bases to make the "ground" pop, and a very few odds and ends like tubes on some lootas and such. But Im sick of looking at them currently Pics

Ive decided that Im going to name my WAAAGH! something along the lines of "Da Ghostas" Or "Da Ghosta Klan" Anywho, you get the idea. So some random boyz Ive painted a white skull on their faces and such to give them that look. So you can really zoom in and see a couple with em anyways.


And heres what Ive been working on as far as the boss and his kopta buddies


And the trophy rack for my boss. I think it REALLY turned out nicely.




So let me know whatcha all think. And which name sounds better to you lot? Im kindda leaning to Da Ghosta Klan, but Im not sold yet

WOW nice work! They look amazing all together on the table. That yellow is really solid! The skull face paint is really cool.

And yes, that banner will strike fear into the hearts of your enemies. Nice yellow dags on the edges!

Yea I was pleasantly surprised on the banner as well, Im normally not good with free hand anything. But apparently Ol shakey didnt bother me this time around

Though Im thinking of repainting the head and driving arm of my boss, they just dont look that good. Infact, Im thinking of swapping heads as well, Ive got another head that would look the tits on there and is already panted nicely. Im not sure though if I want to go popping parts off this late into it. AND its got a helmet so Im not sure how the iron gob would look on there. Something for me to stir over today I guess.

Really liking the biker boss and the koptas! Good job!

Thanks Mr Merlin (does that avatar ever get full?)



Anywho, I caved in and swapped the heads, so now I HAVE to repaint the one arm. Oh well, itll look better in the end anyways. So now the boss has a helmet and some horns as well. So his head is incredibly killy Ill do some painting later and post an update Im sure.

That boss of your is dead killy lookin! I really like your kopta konversions. That WAAAGH is getting big. Man, tho- epic bike/kopta squad!

Yea do the maths on a 5 kopta unit with just the TL bigshootas AND a biker bosses dakkaguns. It pumps out some pretty impressive fire power, AND they are T5. I threw in a buzzsaw for good measure, its going to be a sumbitch to take out for anything MEQ or less

Well I got the new head on, and started on repainting the driving arm. So a little bit of an update, but lookin pretty good me thinks

Rusty and awesome, keep up the good work

Well, its been a few months since Ive done anything, so here I be, pulling triple shifts in the MekShop. Some folks in our group finally got some fliers, and I figured, no self respecting Mek would be in an army without some of his own! So I took some measurements and went ta werk!


Started with the usual pile of Wutz itz...


Banged out a basic design.




Went through a few boyz before finding one that could handle it


And then went ta werk puttin on DAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKA and some paper thin sheet metal.......er armor









So really Ive just some more metal plates to add on, put a sight on fer gud shootin, and a few odds and ends to spruce it up a bit more and itll be ready for some paint!
