Thanks Mikey!

Sorry I have not been here in a while ... change of work, lots of work!

My wife recently went to the UK for a week and I asked her to go to the local GW store if she wanted to bring something back to me
I should have been a bit more precise because she got me some AoS Prosecutors
Well, I like how they look, but they're not very orky so I was wondering if I could "simply" put an ork head in there and make some original stormboyz?

What do you guys think?
There are lots of symbols on the models that I would have to remove, but apart from that, do you think it could look nice?
Or do you think the wings + runes will make the models definitely un-orky?

Hmm, they da ladz wif da vings? Sure, just add tons of gryphs! Their armour should be as flat as possible though.

Yes, they're the ones with the wings ...

These wings don't look very orky at all, same thing with the runes
The runes I can imagine painting them in a tone that will say "waaagh" but for the wings, I guess I'll need to break/rebuild them in a different way

If you see any conversion out there, please let me know!

How about cutting off the wings, adding Rokkits, and maybe... replacing the runes with gunz? I don't know, not too good at conversions.

Oh my, I should feel ashamed to resuscitate this, but that's my only blog about minis

I've been busy switching to a new job and adding some teaching duties this semester, so did not have much time for painting.
I finally got some time during the long Thanksgiving weekend to go back to my brushes.
I decided to attach the painting of my Gargantuan Squiggoth, even though I'm not done with building the howdah yet.

I kind of followed the GW tutorial for the Maggoth Lord so far for the skin.
Basecoated the mouth and the front legs too.

Here is what it looks like right now:






Comments and critics welcomed!

Man, that skintone is nice. Blending?

Not sure about what you call it, but yes, I guess it's blending

As I said, I followed the GW tutorial for the Maggoth Lord's skin.
The only thing is that I used slightly different colors.
I did not realize at first but the overall color scheme seems very "natural" ... until I found out that it is that of a T-Rex toys that my son has:

Nice. Are the arms from a defiler? Looks great so far.

EDC

Thanks EDC!

Front legs are from a Morkanaut kit

You fixed so many Sad T-Rex memes... nice work!
I love the wet blending... I have a croc blood bowl team that needs similar attention, though I'm loath to try it just now. Maybe when I get an airbrush.

Thanks a lot Anpu-adom!

Gorkanaut

Here are some shots taken at my Gorkanaut ... will call it GoldFinger
There are just a few details left, but not much.

Feel free to comment!

Good job, I really like how you modelled... the arm... come on, kids play this!
