Awesome! I love how it looks much better than the 'official' forge world bomma, keep up the good work!

Really good fighta and boss. I Like the blue and the weathering on the fighta.

Cheers fellas,

Got back to painting some actual Orks the last few days [God knows I've got enough to do!] just touching up the 2 Nobz I've already done as well as working on three more to accompany my warboss and big mek.

Got to working on the rest of my nobz skwod, 3 down and 2 nearly finished. Just some highlighting, detailing and basing. Should have this unit finished tomorrow.



and from the back.

And the finished Nobz Skwod WAAAGH

very nice, i really like the way the dead ork on the pole is a lot paler. nice touch

Looking at your stuff makes me want to start Orks!

hey ,

Love your stuff man that bommer is far better that the FW bommber btw how did you make the rivets? I love your ork nobs too very well painted I really like them! Hey how about you check out my blog too? (Link is in signutre). Can't wait for update,

Thanks guys,

Yeah the rivets were individually cut and glued from polystyrene rod that had been roughed up (filter beads are the bomb but look really clean... perfect for imperial builds).

Well, new year, new build.

Next is going to be a unit of drabber pattern MANz.

Here is the very rough prototype frame after an evening choppin' an' gluin'



next, rods and tubes for hydrolic rams, .25mm plasticard plate details then the inevitable task of riveting

Looks, great, I love the proportion.

Mega armor conversions always crack me up because the hands look like those toy Hulk Hands (until you add the necessary gubbinz and pipes)

HULK SMASH

Excellent pose! I look forward to more progress!

Succumb to the call of the rivets, Davidan. They are the sirens of the grimdark, luring modelers into their sweet embrace

Nice build, nice pose

Looking forward to the pistons.

Nice stuff, your Checks are great!


And Checks make an ork army!

Looking forwad to it!

Pretty clean plasticard work. I like it.

Cheers fellas,

Allas my last scalpel blade just brok so this is only as far as I've got.

There is a power plant on his back now... WANT NEW BLADES!

bah, bored now :(

Looking good! Btw are you going to be reapint the skin or leaving it?

Wow mate, those are some really beautiful conversions and paintjobs in this blog! I really like that plane!

I think it look a bit rough tbh but thanks. I am only using scrap from my bitz box. I'm saving the decent bitz for when I've finished cutting my teef on this first one.

To answer, I will be repainting it totally. It will just be too much a pain in the arse to mask off the face when I undercoat it. I'm not going to be too precious with this one as I'm using it to learn from mistakes and all that.

Messed around with it a bit more but I cant really get much further until my new scalpel blades and styrene rods arrive... hopefully tomorrow!

I'm itching to get riveting XD it's addictive

I like the back gubbinz. We do need some hydraulics though! Hydraulics are almost as important as rivets in the 41st millenuim!

Second that! Can't wait for the riviets to be put on though!

Awesome fighta bomma and that mega armoued nob looks fantastic!

Can't wait to see him fully built and painted!

Nice use of the Deffkopta engine

Cheers guys.

Good spot Arakasi, I expect no more from a man with your deffkopta konvertin' experience

One down. Lessons learnt. 5 more to go

Top notch work there!

And the lessons learnt were...?

Amazing the difference rivets make huh?

Your making very good process! The big shoota is very good keep it up man!

OUTSTANDING!

I'm really having to try hard to find time for this XD however I have found time to put berets on all of my kommandos now, they're being left to dry before doing all of there shirt sleeves as per the ones earlier in the thread (that makes 15 including a snik konversion with sluggas, stabbas and a couple throwing stick bombs).

well here's how the prototype looks undercoated.



Some of the glue joins look real messy but that's because I ran out of the good glue and ended up having to use the revell brush applicator stuff that is very thick and gak for detailed gluing... lesson 1 learned and a new needle point, thin plastic glue has arrived

And here are the other 5 growing from mere spores... awe ^-^

Doesn't the thought of so many power claw attacks make you giddy?


Forecast? 100% chance of rain of claw attacks. The storm is coming.
