No problem Im proud to say i at least tried

MC WAAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!

Well, since I have been swamped with... well, everything lately, I haven't had time to update. I did have time to go to a game auction a couple weeks ago and picked this up.



Which I have already mangled to an ork-like degree. I'm thinking about filling it with round multi-colored beads and making it the Playland area (I want to find some ork-sized Habitrail bits to loop in and out of the sides too... who knows what will happen in the end though).



I also finished up the Nob Biker Squad (also known as the Delivery service). This group took a lot longer than I thought it would. Them bikes are a lot to paint. I'm particularly proud of the green stuff banner. There will be better shots of the whole squad after I paint the banner. I don't bust out the whole nice-rig unless I'm going to take the final pictures of a group.



Sneak peak of the Grim-Uss. As it stands, most of the awesome is going to be in the paint job on this guy. I managed to add a burner though, which I'm hoping will help the deep fryer squad (5-15 burnas in a battlewagon). I have also added eyebrows, but it's probably really hard to tell with the eyebrows being white like the rest of the primered model (sometimes I jump the gun and primer the guy right before a couple good ideas hit me)



And a sneak peak of the mayor. Sorry for the blurry picture. I didn't take too much time with these shots as you may be able to tell. Green stuff hat, sash and logo (angle prevents being able to see the logo.). I promise good pictures later. Just proving to a few of you I'm not dead.

Hope everything went well for y'all during the holidays. I'm out.

I've just stumbled on this Plog, and....

WOW that rocks!!!

You could add the McMotto to your trucks in foreign languages: for French it's "C'est tout ce que j'aime"

(which is closer to "That's all I love" than "I'm lovin' it", but I'm not in their translation services so...)

Anyway, I had a good time seeing them, and even my girlfriend found them funny (THAT is something I have never managed to do)!!!!

You are on to something there. I like the idea of doing the McTaglines in different languages. Very cool. Thanks for the idea.
Which brings me to my question : Do they translate ork-speak into other languages in foreign codexes? Can anyone post a sample? The hell is "humies" in french? Or " Shokk attack gun" in Cantonese?

Great paint jobs, humorous concept!
Laugh out loud funny
Waaggghhhhhhh!

HAMBURGLER KOMMANDOS! pleaase ^^

You're welcome, it's always funny for me to see the miscellaneous changes in tone from one language to another, so that seemed cool to me.

Yes of course they try to.

Some quick examples that I can find now, under the template English ork speech / French ork speech / French real words.

Lifta Droppa / Leva Lacha / Lever Lacher
Fighta Bommaz / Chassa Bomba / Chasseur-bombardier
Weirdboyz / Bizarboyz / comes from "bizarre" which is the french for weird/odd/strange
Red wunz go fast / Tou s'k'est rouge va plu'vite / Tout ce qui est rouge va plus vite (All red things go faster)
Killa Kan / Boitkitu / Boite qui tue (that is, a "box that kills")

Actually, some like "Boitkitu" for "Killa Kans" are terrific translation, really funny, but we lose most of the fun with the translations... The simplest orky reduction -a for -er is sometimes applied just like that, but it doesn't have any sense in French, since we don't have many words that finish in -er, plus we we say it quickly, it will never look like an -a!!!!

So sometimes, they take the decision to keep the words as is, and that's the best for me...
A Dreadnought is a dreadnought, a Grot is a Grot... a KFF ... un Champ d'Force Kustom!!!


Cheers,

And merry MacHristmas to all dakkaites around!!

Love the McWaaaagh banner. Very dynamic and vibrant ork army. Keep up the good work.

McBrilliant. I would love to see some matching terrain!

And now I present :
Drive Me Closer! I Want to Hit Them With My Sword!


And



I have no idea where you are hiding with that camouflage, but it needed to be made.

More coming soon.

Haha, I love the idea of a ball pit rhino. It makes me warm and fuzzy inside.

Brilliant! Fantastic idea and well painted!

Firstly I would like to point out that this is an awesome army, you have taken a theme and applied it in such a way that it looks good, without destroying the orkyness of the force!

Secondly I would like to demand a hamburglar-counts-as-snikrot!

I suggest you put a mini ball pit on or next to your lobba thing on the battlewagon

I also think you should make an ork........(wait for it).......

an ork RONALD McDONALD!!!!!!!!!!!!

Need squigs done up as those french fry goblin thingies that they had back in the 70s before Sid & Marty Kroft sued their asses.

I have a hard time with internet sarcasm. I can't tell if you looked at the first page of the plog and saw the Rah-Nuld or not.

The snotlings are the fry guys so far. I was thinking about making the squigs look a little more like the hamburgers from the hambuger patch.


And now I present the Happy Meal, aka Lunch Box. Enjoy.

Awesome Happy Meal xD
What toy do I get with it? :3

There 3 places they can hide, on the sun, in a field of lava, on a incredibly flourescent planet with bright and vibrant
colors everywhere.

I like the top hat on the warboss, and i like the overall theme of the army, nice job.

Im loving it!

Meet Da Mayor

No comments? Really?

Wow, the night shift look fantastic

I love the sash on the mayor, a great touch.

Loving these, great concept. It's nice to see orks done with a healthy does of humour

I think I cried when I saw the epicness of the army... it's perfect!

Great stuff here I really like the mayor over the top Top Hats are poor win. I can remember reading the Gersman for Tankbusters and grinning Panzer Knackers just appeals to me!

iz jus' so awesome

WOW! Really, just wow!

Others have said it, and I'll say it too, this is amazing! Your paint scheme is solid and carried out well. I think my favorite bit is the McWaaagh! banner (I love seeing people's interpretation of Waaagh! banners!) and yours is perfect!

Please keep up the good work. I will definately being checking back on this.
