Love that grot tipios! It's a cross between a sentinel and a GK baby-carrier! LOL! Brilliant man!


Definitely Exalting this thread... it qualifies in spades.

Thanks for the kind words guys, I was really happy with that little grot so it's nice to know I wasn't deluding myself

@tipios - That's awesome, I can't wait to see it painted up.

Between the eye and the BANNER... just too cool for school!

Nice job on the OSL... really menacing. Which is good... grots and squigs need all the menacing we can get.

That squig is great, and the wips are awe inspiring. Like I said, setting the bar.

Remember guys, we can also ork up our names in the wiki, like Gits and myself have done.

Did the best I could with only 3 letters

@Mr.Malevolent - I both congratulate you on the brilliance of the paintwork and curse anyone with the guts to try OSL and pull it off.

Yeah, I think a z on the end is about as far as you can go. Maybe a Da' in front? As in Da' Wibz? Idk.

Feel free to plug not just us, but Waaagh Dakka in general on any of the blogs or flgs's you may frequent. I think it's a really cool project, but some folks can't seem to grasp the concept.

@ wib: Thank you for the kind words. OSL is definitely a pain. I cna try and make a tutorial if anyone is interested.

Yeah, some people find the "restrictiveness" of the project too much. I however had a blast making my squig! Wish I could make more for this haha

Ok, after I get done with this this real life project Im gonna go did around in my random pile of geek stuff because I think I have something that I can use for a squig and maybe even a grot. Guess what Im saying is that Im putting on a hat with hopes of tossing it into the ring soon.

I can appreciate that, it was one of the reasons I was somewhat hesitant when I first saw it. Once I decided to do it I actually really enjoyed doing something different to my norm and, yeah, my only regret is I can't do another. Hell, I'm tempted to make a whole squad to go with mine now.

Actually you aren't the only one. You guys have been having so much fun with the grots and hounds that graven, WM and I are all very jealous and wish we could make grots ourselves.

@1-i : Be really cool to have you on board 1-i. I've been really impressed with everyone's efforts so far. Fun, creative, wonky as heck... perfect for a grot mob!!

@insaniak: You know... you can always voluntarily demote yourself and join in the fun. Heck, graven, WM and I all demoted ourselves from Nobs to Boys so we could start this crazy mob...

1-i - Great to have you. We are actually full on Squigs (can only have 3), unless one we to change/drop. I think with your modeling, your grot would be a great and fitting addition!

Is there a deadline for completion, I ask only because I have completely murded the one grot that I actually had and since I now need to bug a buddy for a replacement I just to know how long I have to track him down. Considering its been about a year since I last saw him I have some concerns.

Also opions on what is better, MicroWAAAGGGH or ToshWAAAGGHH?

Lovely Squig Mr. malevolent! He has a bit of a terminator feel to me, with the one glowing eye (as in the movie, not the guys in tactical dreadnought armour).

1-i: welcome

There is no deadline of any sorts as far as I can tell. That being said, we are working on some rewards for those that have their waaagh commitments finished, with more at certain milestones.

Finally a proper use of grey knight bitz!
One minor nitpick: I feel the haft on the choppa is a tad long. Have you considered shortening it?
