**Tempest Six Two**

Hey all!!! Im a new user to Dakka, having primarily been active on a few other 40K forums over the years, but i've always come here to check out the Ork-specific articles and forum sections.

I've been gaming, painting and collecting since 1993 (im 31 this year), with a hiatus from the hobby between the ages of around 18 to 24 where i spent a lot of time working and trying new stuff. However, the lure proved too strong and i was drawn back in to the magical world of spending thousands of dollars on small plastic and metal men!!

I spend a lot of my current hobby time painting up minis for my Dark Angels army, which now stands at a little over 4000pts. Im also heavily involved in doing commission paintwork for other people, as well as producing and selling terrain- jungle, urban ruins, wastelands etc.

I recently put together a rough and ready force of Orks made from the contents of 3 AoBR box sets, as well as extra Deffkoptas (i have 15 now!!), 6 Killa Kanz, 2 looted wagons, 2 Battlewagons, and a Stompa!! They're being painted up at the moment, as Deathskulls

Well, thats me in a nutshell. Im looking forward to spending some time on here, debating the ins and outs of the green horde with all you fine people!

Cheers,
Tempest
