LOVING the kromlech Orc Juggernauts.

Those juggers are simple an awesome sculpt. The paint is also fabulous. The Russia orks.. i am not sure however.

I know what you mean. The russian guys didn't come out great. They look better in the flesh, but still not awesome.
Super soked with how the kromlech juggernauts are coming together. And what you can't see is the Tau on the floor has a grenade in his hand.

Nice job on that Juggernaut, have to follow this thread now....

Thanks man!
Quick update: I finished the looted dreadnought (click for bigger).

LOVE THE REMOTE CONTROL! that makes it great, well done.

Cheers, Panda. Really very pleased with how he came out

Big toy for bigger Orkz!

love the idea and great execution.

Cheers. First build that's made me actually want to try and take some proper pictures.

Got some 4 way battles coming up the weekend of the 4th, need to get some more of these lads finished quick, I need more infantry!

I'm a great fan of fantasy orkz for 40K!

Good job, nice ladz.

I like the rad head swaps

Cheers Panda. SOme more hastily painted lads and the start of my pyro squad.

Hastily kit bashed Ard Lads

OOo ard boyz. Yeah those models are hard to work with, and pass better for nobz than boyz, but you can do both. Nice swaps/conversions.

I used myself some pieces from the fantasy black orks, but only for nobz.
Good job, I'm waiting to see them with a nice color now!

Cheers, lads. Got that big four way battle coming up this weekend. Chaos Marines, Necrons, Grey Knights and my WAAAGH!!
I'm going out saturday morning to buy a 6'5"x4'5" MDF board to use as a table top. This will be the start of my own scenery project, which I've been discussing with Mrs Squidbot, as we can easily fit 6x4 in our kitchen. With that in mind she came home with a present for me the other day, to start my scenery conversions:


That's now been stripped to this:


A lot of remodelling and painting to do on it, but I think it's a great starting point.

That's awesome. Can't wait to see what you do with it.

thata is alot of work

Aye, I'm looking forward to it It won't even be started by this weekend, it'll just be on the table as is for now.

Now 'dis is a proppa WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH! Subskribed!

Cheers, Squiggy!
First post has updated to be less dull, and include some finished units.
I was painting another of the Kromlech Mega lads, but it appears to be turning into a killa kan instead....


And made a start on the ard ladz.

i actually really like the khromelech kit bash alot. That is nice, and sexy.

He's cheeky, for sure, and this weekend he charged into a Necron pile and played whack a mole.

Also this weekend I started work on my board. I purchased 6 4'x1' loft panels from B&Q for just under £14. They are tongue and grooved so they slot together very conveniently, creating a reasonably secure surface, propped between kitchen table and ironing board.



This will be sprayed with Plastikote Stone Manhattan Mist, to create a starting point for an urban board. But for this weekend it was bare wood with whatever scenery we could throw on it.


That's the Mrs learning to play her Grey Knights.

Awe semsishes, grey knights. Well done, excited for your board work. You had a much better starting idea than i.

Don't worry, I will crush the Grey Knights on behalf of Orks everywhere. Maybe.
I ordered some of the urban scenery from Antenociti's Workshop and have my eye on some Airfix stuff for scenery.

This weekend's games taught me I need more troop transports, the Necrons just kept me at a distance, slowly picking me off from a distance. I also had some awful run/charge rolls.
So I have ordered some non GW models to use for Trukk and Battlewagon conversions.

I actually loved your board. It inspired me to get to work on mine.

Sounds very promising squidd bot. I need to finish my board.. speaking of ...

All this stuff is really amazing! Keep up the excellent work!

Yeah, Panda, not seen any progress on your board for a while! You're letting the Prophet of the WAAAGH! down. Speaking of; Welcome to the thread, Overlord Thraka, and thanks!

SO, I received some scenery pieces from Micro Art Studios, laser cut HDF. I cannot praise this stuff enough. Really awesome quality structures.
It took me a while to cut out and put together but the results are brilliant.


I've also started work on my own battlewagon, early days yet but here's the main chasis, which is a Tamiya tank.
