Just thought about making a few models to flesh out the background story for my army. Orks like the Brewboyz especially. Ive searched everywhere for more information besides the bare mention of their existence. Ive been unsuccessful. So, here I sit piles of parts, but no real substance to give them much life. I'd like to hear a few ideas if y'all have any. I kinda picture brewboys lookin somethin like moonshiners. It might be fun. Cheers.

Green moonshiners with ramshackle distilleries. Remember the Yellerz too. Ork priests of Gork'n'Mork. I think a nice touch on the Brewerz would be derped eyes and vomit stains.

(Brewerz and Yellerz would be cool on tabletop. They'd be bound to have some interesting rules. But I digress. . .)

Remember that Orkz are beyond filthy. Be liberal with mushroom spam.

Snotlings tend the Squigs. Squigs clean up after the orkz and provide niche services such as food, hair, oil, targeting, etc. (Think Apple: There's an app for that? Orkz: There'z a squig fer that.)

You've just gotten me inspired. :S

Thats good. Maybe some grots passed out or whatnot around the still. This might actually be a cool model. Thanks man.

Not a problem. In fact, thank you. Now I've got a use for all of these bitz, plasticard, and greenstuff!

The oiler grots could be painted up to be pouring kegs of fungus brew, too. If you can get your hands on the Gorkamorka fortress, that could easily be a still-fort with minimal converting, just add a couple barrels with 'XXX' on the side and a bit of coiled copper wire running between them.

Dude, if you make any kind of squig farm, this HAS to be on some kind of orkish billboard for it!

Squig farm... hmm. I like that idea alot. and it goes well with my general theme. So absolutely. The sign will be on there. Thanks!!! I'll post the pictures of it when I get it started.

Here are a few pictures of the still in progress.

GW has a page, somewhere, around building an orcish camp. They have some pretty good lore in there as well, if I recall correctly~

Yes I remember seeing it too but can't seem to find it now. Actually I noticed that they have removed a lot of their articles from their site. I wonder why?

When they changed the style and layout a few years ago a lot of the articles disappeared, some were re-uploaded but most were lost

No, it was only a few months ago that I saw it.

Don't forget the Pant'z Boyz (dang that was a funny thread)

For some reason whenever I picture brew boyz I picture them with a tank of fungus beer strapped to there backs and spraying git everywhere. Just my crazy thought.

a few grots concussing themselves crushing cans on their heads?

I was dying laughing in the middle of a lecture on Oscar Wilde reading that.
