I have about 2.500 or 3.000p of orks and yesterday I've been started to paint that green tide (includes 6 biker nobz, 3 BW, 3 trukks, 150 boyz, 15 lootas, 2 KFF meks, 9 deffkoptas, 2 dreads...).

I started with the deffkoptas. These are the firts miniatures that I'll paint (13 years playing and I painted no more than 3 spiece of panzee dungons, 5 skavens and 3 Beakies). So please be patient and delicated with me biggrin2.gif blushork2.gif

I'm trying to paint a kult of speed army with a few bad moon boyz (I really like that yellow!). And I really apreciate ideas about how to continue and how to improve my tecnique and miniatures.

3 power klaws rocks!





sorry for blurry pics.

Blimey. 3000 points of unpainted orks! Good luck. The kopta looks like a good start.

Hehe, Is that a Mad Dok on a bike? EPIC!

Thanks for the comments.
Maybe 3.000-3.200. Half of the army unassembled.

Painboy made from bits of this:

Honestly I loved the whole rust effect on the kopta and most of the model. My only grip is the shinny-ness of the ork skin. I kinda personally dispise when people do that as opposed to a nice duller dirtier catachan skin built up to. Just my own take on it but looking great can't wait to see more of them.(yes I know some of those are not words people run with it)

Wow, 3000 unpainted points. You will be busy.

That kopta looks really nice, and I think the ork skin would be fine with a layer of dullcoat or matte varnish. As for your painboy/warboss, my main concern is size: it's not immediately apparent who the warboss is in the mob, as he is not much bigger than the nobz. Maybe a torso-swap as well would bulk him up a bit?

Looking forward to seeing this army progress, early beginnings look promising.

haha is it just me or does the 4th pic of the kopta look like its shootin a big orange paint brush! You are gonna be very busy but it looks like you've made a nice start! very well done! look forward o seeing a bit more as it comes along!

A lot of work! a lot of WIP!

Cool. Make sure you break up those enormous areas of metal on the trukk though, otherwise it might look a bit monotonous. Good to see progress, keep up the great work.
