@ Schank: Yeah...they look really good and if I ever go soft and do a marine Army....i may have to make them BC. Problem is they take so long. Anyway, glad you like them..............................ORK!

Yea I can see why they take so long. That pattern has to be a pain in the arse to make the line look straight......Wait a minute a Brazen Klawz army.... ORKs dont care about straight lines.. Problem solved I win.

HAHAHA! Yes, go with that!

Bah! A challenge. Now I have another project to work on. Ship out monkeys ork, which I'll do tomorrow. Finish whales marine. And now 'Da Brazen Klawz. I'll have to do up a test model for it. But I will need some help. Art what are the exact colors you used painting your Brazen Claws? I would like to get them as close as your color scheme as possible.

I would like to send a marine. But I have horrible horrible painting...

It doesnt matter how good you can paint. As far as I can tell all are welcome to play. Besides my orks dont care what they kill looks like as long as it puts up a good fight. Toss a line out there and see if you get a bite. I might help to post a pick or some fluff of what you are working on.

hmmm. Well I could throw one of these badasses in

flamer-bolter = fail I know. I ran out of parts. I will put greenstuff on it.

Look like your on the right track AC. I am unfortunately closed for the winter for new trades (no way to prime anything).

Just to make sure I've got all of them in some form of progress, lemme run through em in no particular order. I kinda do them as I get the bug up my bum, but I'll try to get those of you who are speedy ****s done first. Figure if I get one a week done I'll be set to go.

Graven: SD. All but done (gotta do the chapter logo)
Lenny: SD. Purple done
Art: Ork. Green skin. Idea well under way
Schank: Ork. Primed. Have a good idea of what I'm doing.
Hemmingway: Mentor (always fun to try something new I guess) Primed and planned.
Git: DA. Robes started
Vent: DA. Robes started
Arakasi: Ork. Looted Dread. Painting started. It'll take awhile to do this one.

Hey Whale, yeah go for the battle damaged look, I personally don't do enough work on my battle damage so it'll be helpful to have a physical example to inspire me. Besides the way I see it he's going to be in the middle of the thickest fighting so a few dings and scratches are too be expected, lol.

Cheers again, oh and for the base just leave it as he'll be coming off that base and going on to a resin one.

Schank: Colors are as follows:

Red: Mechrite base, Badab Wash, Mechrite again, Then final Mechrite/Iyanden highlight.

Blue: Regal Blue, Badab Wash, Regal Blue again, then Regal Blue/Ultramarine Blue, finally Ultramarine Blue highlight.

Just out of curiosity, has anyone started making shoulder pads for "Da Deffwatch"? Why should the ORKs be left out

lol, look forward to seeing some Brazen Klaws schank Yours is ready to ship, let me have your address and I should get it off in the next few days.

LOL Tony.

Go ahead man... I've got enough to do. *tag*

HEY! I never said that Git! Though that does sound like a fun little side job

Wow. If someone makes a deffwatch, I'll join in

I may or may not be working on a shoulderpad

I may or may not already have an ork ready to be painted for da deffwatch

Deffwatch, Brazen Klaws, 'Bug Boyz', Da Dark Angels....Da Orkses is taking over see.... 'ere we go, 'ere we go, 'ere we go...WAAAAAAGH

Da Blood Angelz


Wow, I should totally make some, since I have Blood Angels as my SM army


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Damn it guys

Da Deff Company for the Da Blood Angels

Now I may actually have to do this. Hmm, maybe one stormboy squad, and a squad of 'deff company'

monkeytrolls 'ard boy got some paint on it finally!! got a couple more layers to do but at least its getting somewhere!!

My DC marine for ice angel, the marine i wrote fluff for his story is assembled and primed.

I received a marine from hemingway but unluckily haven't sent his yet, I have it packaged and will send it morrow!

Alright. Well as you all know Art can paint a killer looking Brazen Claw space marine. I just happened to bring up 'Da Brazen Klaws and then Art issued a challenge. Well no really but thats how my version goes. I was digging threw my orks to see what would work as a good test model....... Found nothing. But then I went threw what little orc models I had...... Hurray for Black Orcs! This is what I came up with so far for the armor. I got the arm and head picked out just have to do alot of converting on the arms so all you get is the body. More will come later. This should tide you over for a bit Art...... well at least I hope. Oh yea I used Arts recipe for the color scheme. thanks Art.

Freakin' Awesome! BLACK ORKS ROCK! Yes, do a whole army that way.

This is my next big project. I will convert my 'Ard Boyz to Brazen Claws also. Thanks for throwing this up Schank.

I love all the Marine themed orks, rather ironic most came to life because of the MARINE swap.

Actually Schank's boy I'm making is going to be Tau themed.

i have a bunch of orc models since my parents brought up my old warhammer army which im trading and kitbashing now. I could repaint some and trade them out, hopefully i can cut them off the square bases!

Thinking on my last statement. instead of a whole army or even a 'Ard boyz squad.....i might go with a NOBZ squad and give them all PKs.....then they would truly be Brazen Klaws!

Nice work on the Brazen Klaw... Hopefully he'll be 40k-ified!?!

You ask and you shall receive. 'Da Brazen Klaws 40k style. Not done yet as you can tell. Just have the first coat of red and blue done so far. I do about 3 coats thined down before the wash to make it look even. So here it is. Might have to do a squad also Art. Diggin the colors.

I have a deranged idea for a Mental Leejun gretchin if anyone's up for it...?

Love that ork shank... are those fanasy parts?

Yep, I used a Black Orc Model. The arms are from the black orc spur also just cut the fist of the left arm and added a power klaw and cut the ax off the right arm and added a shoota. Fairly easy to do. Just a bit of cutting and shaping on the arms. But I like it.
