Hello, folks! I hope all of my American viewers are prepped to have at least SOME kind of Thanksgiving, even if it is amongst a small group of friends and family.
I had neglected to post the results of ORKTOBER here, as I mostly post in Instagram, given how Dakka's image hosting setup is pathetically out of date and a pain-in-the-ass. 
I managed to FINISH this army during Orktober, in a series of painting pushes. This army is now complete (shock, horror) as I do not expect to make any more purchases for it, barring GW coming out with something truly spectacular. There is a deep satisfaction in being able to call an army "Done", a high I'm still kinda riding out. In 2021, this army WILL be taking the battlefield in a campaign we're calling "Waaagh the Dog". Watch for it here on Dakka!
And without further ado, crappy cellphone camera pictures of the Army.
Thanks to all, and we'll see you on the other side.
--Brian

That is truly spectacular. Savour the rare, sweet taste of completion. The vehicles, particularly the buggies and dakkajets, are my personal favourites.

Thank you for sharing your beautiful completed army with us Brian. It looks amazing! I think the planes are my favorite too, but I also love that wall of walkers with such a unified paint scheme. Whose the little grot front and center?
I'm looking forward to Waaagh the Dog next year.

This is an almost 3' long sailing ship, WizKidz's "Fallen Star". I bought the unpainted version, and finally finished the job tonight.
This is designed for 28mm figures.
Enjoy!

Ahem, technically that should not be Boaty McBoatface as it clearly as a mast and should instead be Shippy McShipface which is the proper nomenclature for masted vessels 
Awesome stuff, I never even knew that model existed.

No rigging, it's designed to be used for miniatures.  Gotta be able to reach in.

No, I can assure you that my desire to give these things at least semi-accurate rigging was a hard temptation to overcome!

Nice boat!
I also saw the rich boyz in their yellow paint scheme, they must grow lots of teef!

Well, if there's a direct correlation between teef and points on a 1:1 basis...

Yellow always seems to denote tons of teef by Orks.

No, Sky Talons were Squatted.
However, all surviving IA fliers got seriously nerfed, with the loss of all the add-ons (flares, armoured cockpits, etc.) as well as removal of most weapon options (bombs, etc.).
And as for YOU, Graven...
