Nice work, Orks always get better everytime you have to rebuild them.

Nicely done! I agree with cormadepanda... the more smashed up and re-assembled looking an ork is, the better.

Looks very nice. Even with the very thin legs  Your additions to the arms are great, and I love your assault cannon.
Only thing I would say is, flamer barrel could be drilled, and a little turquoise wash on any brass bits.
Can't wait to see whats next?

Looks great! Great photos too. Well done.
The Assault Gun is fantastic and the weathering looks great. Adding the wash suggested above will put it over the top!

Update on my Grey knight DeathDread, now before you all bang on about things i need to do on this model, im going to say this, this is not "FINISHED" yet, there are some little things i need to re-do and some stuff ive missed, looking at the phoro's has made me pick them up, as im sure you guys will with all your keen eye's that you have.
this photo ive put on, coz it my first go at sludgey slime filled water, and i dont think i did a bad job, feel free to guide me or add links on this, thanks guys
hope you like

That's a spectacular build mate... and I don't think the paint job is bad at all (understatement). Odd base for a 40k figure, but if it's a display piece it doesn't matter.

Don't tell me they have rules on bases as well
should of said with the photo's, i re-did the base, as i wasn't happy with the one i did with it.

We need more stuff to 'bang on about'

40k uses round bases. oval monster base is what that awesome dork knight would use. The base is bigger, and gets you in assults easier. But for display it is sexy. I love it and things it awesome even the big ass gun.

Well done, I like the fact that you've got the motor on the front for turning the ammo, and the firing pin at the back. Those details really make it stand out!!

I think the "rule of cool" will cover you on the base... but yes, there are actual rules about base use as variation from the norm can give figures certain advantages.

Yes, dam cool conversion ……..AGAIN !!!! I am so sick of saying that
But the hand cannon is a cool design, the motor on run ammo distributor is a really cool touch I might have to borrow that one in t the future

That Dread is amazing. Like Gitz said you did a great job on the conversion. And your paint job is really damn good as well. Great job. Cant wait to see what you do with the fightaz.

Looks fantastic Wazzoo! Everything looks great. If you planned on using it in a game, I hope you can find a solution to the base issue.
I just picked up one of the Ork Bommer kits as well. Actually, it was an early Father's Day present. I feel loved.
I also thought about some conversions. I thought of combining it with a couple of LandSpeeders to get two or three Bommers out of one Ork kit. We'll see. Use of Land Speeders as looted Bommers would fit with my DeffSkullz clan, but the base Ork kit is awesome too.
