Like the last kan, pretty cartoony, but it works

There are some very nice conversions and the painting is quite good. You're making my vibe to start orks and convert them to the clan out of dow 2 retribution, (I think they're the bootleggers or something) even stronger. They are very good.

Thank You guys!
Frawg, luckily I understand that too eheheh

Cause there's no replies yet here we go with a "Special Kan" built with AOBR Kopta and Sentinel legs.
Enjoy!!!

"Da Toll One"

On the wave of the last KoptaKan I went for crazy stuff and this is an other Kopta with Deff Dread legs.

Note how It anchors Itself to shot the rokkits and the back stoplight with the arrow to say "Pass on dis side"

That thing is just a monster...

Me likes. Even the backward facing sentinel legs make sense in your build - Love it!

Git: thank You very much!

CK: The other way around wouldn't make It so orkish, I tried

Now to finish up my Koptakans here for You "DA KROK"







And the Kan Wall

Pretty good and funny stuff. I love the smashy kan

Thanks Awesomesauce.

Here is an other WIP painting, I tried to chip a lot, highlight and washes on the armour, the face should be done as well!

Feedback wanted and needed

looks good! now throw some paint on you amazing kanz!

Thanks mate, but I prefer to get the hang of painting on the 30 hard boyz first....

very nic stuff going on here, your style reminds me of the older ork editions. very cool subscribed

Chipping looks good!

Loving those last three kans, top-notch. Set a few cogs whirring in the ol' brain-pan too

Bigfish and Monkey, thanks a lot!

Done with the hard boy that I set as a test for the army, pretty pleased with It.
Tomorrow if the sun still out like the past few days... pics.

As promised, here with the finished piece.

Comments and critiques are more than welcome

Very nice orks. I like them. I prefer my greenskins with a lighter tone for the contrast - but that is my personal preference. Maybe some more highlights on the skin?

Looking forward to see what you are going to do with the base.

Hey SelvaggioSaky,
I've come to check out your blog! Tbh there is only 1 word that sums your converting skills up- badass! I love your converted buggies man! The use of an ork truck is excellent! The last one has a real 'beach buggy' feel and looks towards it. The kanz are superb too! I own 3 and have built them up from the set and they are average compared some of ours! The one with the dread front bit is my fav! (With the one with the recking ball coming in second)! sorry but I've got to do that conversion! The bikers look really good too! My nob biker is converted too which you can se on my blog. (Below). Hey how about you check out my blog too? (Link is in the description).) Can’t wait till next update!

TaWaaaaaagh: thanks, I'll experiment with more highlight for sure, try and fail, but try anyway.

HAZZER: cheers dude, I'll check Your blog for sure

Just finished the armor on the first 10 hard boyz, tomorrow pics!

And as the weather still good, here the pic I took

Armor in orange with highlights and chipping plus wash.
Let me know what You think!

Really good positioning on the smashin kan

Nice orange, and your weathering is pretty cool too.

Some very nice conversions you have got going here. Can't add anything to Gitsplitta's advice, and it looks like you are taking it in - so everything appears to be headed in the correct direction

You seem to have Orky plasticard plates down pat - any special tips or processes you go through creating those?

I dig those mekkanoid kanz, great conversions.

Thanks guys, It's because of Dakka people that I'm actually painting, I want to share what I do and get better watching better painters jobs.

Arakasi: I have no tips really, my mate looked at me (not in an happy mood, he does BT) when I was doing the last buggy and just said "You're a F******ing natural with conversion".
I just take the piece I want covered or put together and cut random shapes till I fill the gap, a couple of other strips to tie It together and is done.
I'm quiet used to knifes as well, I'm a cook in my other occupation, so It's a one shot get It right cut.
So I think that in a past life I was a Mek.

Here a sneak peek of my new conversion, will be a count as a Truk for my slugga boyz!

Enjoy.

Those boyz are loooking goos man! that trukk is looking too!

Awesome start to a half-track!

I doubt he's far off the mark. You have a great eye for parts and poses. Everything looks functionally plausible while still characterful - the amount of stock bits you've managed to use might actually make this fact more impressive.

Interesting start to the half-track.

You planning on chopping the back of the armoured car, or keeping it as a solid unit?

Great blog, I really like the dynamic and fluid poses of those kanz. I would like to see more painting though, as I'm quite curious as to your progress; looking at the first one you had on page one it looks like you already have come a long way and I want to follow this as you develop ( and steal any good ideas you get, obviously).

Subscribed and watching closely. Great conversions, now go the extra mile with the paintjobs.
