Thought I'd post up my first completed model in an Evil Sunz force that will largely comprise of a Grot workforce as a troop base accompanied by a significant number of trukk based boys.

C&C welcome as always!

I really like it, a nice and unique runtherd. Would I be right in assuming the shoulders are layered plasticard? Might steal that if I ever get around to making some 'ard boyz.

Painted pretty damn well as well

Cheers, the shoulders pads and fur collar are both built up with green stuff. He's also got some strapping on his back holding the pads together.

Looks really nice, as a fellow evil sunz fella' I'll be looking our for more orky goodness!

love this guy, is that a nob head on a boy body?
Love the squig, great job man

Yeah, didn't realise it was a big head till after I was commited but loved the hunched powerful look it gave him.

Thanks for the positive comments guys, its motivating me to get my grot conversions done

I think I'm more interested in the upcoming grots than the trukk mobs. If this guy is any indication, should be a treat!

Cheers, first grot will be up soon. I just need to add in some more stages of highlighting and then I should be satisfied. Not gonna lie I've struggled with the grots given how small and fiddly they are to give it a well defined paint job.

Finished my first grot, I think he turned out pretty well albeit the base isn't upto the first ones standard (I'm unsure if the exposed PVA on it is good or bad). Really struggled with his small size.

Not visible from angle but the bolter is still attached to a gooeier version of the original owners hands.

Squads named Grabbits Fievin Gitz.

Nice Grot! The highlighting is very solid! If you use a tacky glue or craft glue, they usually drie clear.

keep updating regulary, as an ork player myself, im really looking for to more of your stuff

Nice GS skills on the first guy. Not over the top, just nice.

Cheers guys. Got 23 more gnoblar to turn grot. 5 are converted already but above is the only painted one. Lucky I'm rich in spare Las and bolt weapons. Aiming to paint 1 a day, which I just realised means only a squad a month

Got another grot done recently, the basing needs a little work really across all three of them. However I've managed to convert up all of the grots and just about start on painting them.

Nice job hope to see more soon.

amazing! cant wait for more!

My completed Deffkopta, 1 of 5

Im liking that Deffkopta alot, and im looking forward to seeing more!
Nicely done!

Look really good. Well done!

Cheers Guys, Its been slow going between a jumping attention span and a variety of orky conversion ideas buzzing around. However I'm now upto:

1 Slaver (Runt Herder)
4 Grotz
1 Counts-as Big Shoota
and 1 Deff Kopta

All painted and based!



Currently got another 14 Grotz, 4 Deff Koptaz, 1 Trukk assembled and awaiting paint.

And 10 Shoota Boyz (4 Shootaz, 6 Kromlech Shotguns, 6 Kromlech Backpacks) on order awaiting paints.

I love the defkopta keep up the good work

Finally completed my Shoota Boyz Nob, a work of much time, love and occasionally hate:



Bak'Splitta - The Butcher

Good ork skin, red and conversion. This is going to be a great army.

The nob looks great...but you know you can't put him in a mob of shoota boyz, right? Those nobs don't have the option to take a combi-weapon.

Hrmm, that may well be a major oversight on my part. Incredibly unfortunate since I'm now flat out of Nobz parts that the squad will be nobless until I restock on my bitz box.

Dang, anyway I still have enough boyz on the go to keep me occupied for the time being, and I'm months away from a fieldable tabletop force anyway.

He would be great in a Nobz mob though. Can't wait to see a pic of your entire, completed army. I'm sure it will be an awsome sight.

Just one more for tonight, this next guy has been Nicknamed Sarge, largely due to the puny humans naming everyone in a similar hat Sarge.



He counts as just a normal big shoota boy, intended to be in Bak'Splitta's mob but now I'm feeling a conversion to make an ork in tattered army wear to give a more concentrated vibe to the unit since Bak'Splitta is off to a Nobz squad

Your ork skin looks great!

Cheers, every time I've reverted back to orks I've changed the recipe for the skin, which has as a byproduct left me with a lot of models I wont touch until stripped and repainted.

Hoping this time I stick with one recipe, the current one seems to be working well.

Really nice models.
