Hay, just some writting for now, pics later this week.
So I'm collecting an Ork Army, nothing special but am atracted to more than one aspect of the army, I like the high low tech as well as the snake bites backward tendancies.
Without this combo looking silly i need to realy try to plan and get it right, to show the snakebite aspect of the army i recon i'll use there symbols (no brainer) as well as having loads of squigs , one at the moment stands in for a boy and grots hanning around. All bosspoles should have suitably snake bite glyphs and stuff.
but i'm stumped on how to do the tech part, thinking tanks ,cyborks , meks and dreads as well as deffcoptas and trukks. What could i use to represent cybercenetic replacements on the orks, or high techer shootas or something.

Try to ignore my spelling, I'm not that great at it, pics coming of progress, i'd like some feedback and ideas

Not really contributing, but how did you manage to make a multiple of a thread?

I suppose for high-tech stuff, you could just mix and match stuff from the other xenos races and cobble something together.

Friend of mine plays orks, he is big into more or less scratch building things, he uses alot of old electronic components with his models. I'd recommend getting ahold of any old electronic device you can get your hands on and take it apart.

This friend of mine made some zap guns out of some IG lascannons and capacitors and copper wire from a computer motherboard.

Pretty much anything could work for the orks, as long as they belive it works...

Have no idea how I double posted.
So far been limiting myself to spare ork and kroot bits so will look out for old electronics, have used other races though, tau and space marines mostly
