i'm at the age where people give money as Christmas presents now (or nothing, sucks being all grown up). So with the extra monies i may get, should i get:

forgeworld: ORK STOMPA WITH HEAD LIFTA DROPPER CLAW AND BELLY GUN (my apoc army is gonna be Buzzgob's walker force ) ( $249 )

or the air brush GW sells so i can actually get my orcs based (because hand basing 200 boys is the suck) ( $30 ish, lol )

go for the Warboss on Bike or the Meka Dread. Personally I dont like the Ork Stompa models, but this is a great chance to get some other FW stuff.

I am still waiting on the biker model to get here.

If you're going to get an airbrush, you'd do well to look at something other than GW's propellant gun.

If you're going to get something for simple basecoating...the GW piece isn't a bad introductory item. Is it a great piece? Nope.
If it's your first time working with a spray/airbrush...then I suggest this piece:

It's easy to maintain, it's pretty easy to use, and it'll get the job done.

Airbrushes are investments. Big ones at that. You don't want to just jump in with the most expensive airbrush you can buy, especially if you're unfamiliar with the care of said airbrush.

Except for paints there is nothing from GW in my painting box. There are much better and way cheap option if you look around. Any hardware and craft store for a start.
