Hi guys.
I have been properly wargaming for a few years now and have built a quite large collection of 40k models. However I have quite a few armies, non of which are fully painted (it's basically just a bunch of models I thought looked cool with no consistency). I want your advice on what I should keep and sell (also where I should sell it). Here's what I own:
Orks:Grukk, A warboss, 40-50 ork boys, 10 Nobz ,15 stormboys, 9 warbikes, 2 trukks, 2 battlewagons, a dakkajet, 3 killa Kans, a deffdread
Adeptus mechanics:Belisarius crawl,15 skittari rangers,5 vanguard,a dragoon, a dunecrawler, 2 kastelans,a techpriest dominus
Misc:2 assassin's,10 custodian guard,5 primaris intercessors

Many thanks
Chet

Well what exactly are you looking for in this hobby?

Well I want an army that's fun to paint and play.
While the orks are fun, I messed up their paint job and I've gotten a lot better.
I haven't enjoyed playing admech.
Ive thought about expanding my custodes as well as adding some space marine or imperial guard to fill out where they are lacking.
Hoped that helped

Sounds like you want to sell off your Admech and Imperial stuff and focus back on the Orks.

Mmmmmm yeah it sounds like orks might be your thing if you actually enjoy playing them.

Id say sell off the admech.

id keep the custodians and assassins as they are a small amount of dudes, paint them up nice and make a slow imperial soup collection for the future as everyone eventually burns out on their main army.

stripping models is easy dont worry if you messed up the orks.

you can convert some of that admech stuff to be orky looted vehicles!

Man I would love to see that. Looted admech sounds amazing!

Cheers for the advice guys.
What would you do to strip the orks then?

If its all plastic then 95-99% isopropal alcohol will strip it all in about 20 minutes. might require a run or 3

otherwise all the basic ones like super clean, purple stuff, simply green, fairy poweder, detrol

depends where you live? In the uk there is biostrip from amazon my mate said mentholated sprits worked for him but obv handle with care esp if ye a minor.

think in the usa guys use simplegreen?
