Lazy Joe looks great, but the Flagellant tops it. Great job!

**ZergSmasher**

What paint colors did you use to paint the Kroot's skin? I ask because I have some Kroot that need some paint.

**Mad..**

I love Lazy Joe. Reminds me of the general from Avatar, and it's the little things I love on the models, like the knife sticking into the sand bags behind Joe. Always more than meets the first glance.

**inmygravenimage**

You are a ridiculously talented chap, sir.

**Knightley**

@LDP - Fingers crossed they will all be done or mostly done by the time our game rocks around, I have like a week and a bit, will paint till my fingers bleed!

@Cam - Haha, Makes me wish I included the other Ork in the team now, Perhaps next year?

@Nerdy - Cheers mate, always appreciate it when you stop by

@LT - Thanks, looks like every one is getting a look in today!

@Zerg - Umm, I used old paints from a previous list, but the base was Charadon Granite, Then did a 50/50 Base/Khaki Brown, then a final highlight of Khaki Brown. Hope that helps.

@Mad - Heh, are they transformers? He's going to transform into a riptide next muhahah

@Graven - Greatly appreciated buddy!

Update: Reds and Blues done

ALL Orks look like something out of Mad Max!

Knightley, they are looking great! And thanks for the tip about the Kroot skin, maybe I can use it, at least with similar colors, for mine!

**Spacewolverine**

That acolyte looks superb! I wish I could do squiggles like you. I do like the Ork a lot. Very well done conversion. The group pic is awesome Knightley!!

**Knightley**

@EDC - Cheers, who would have thought I could do a GS mask eh?

@Wolvy - Ah, its just putting paintbrush to model, no rhyme or reason behind it

Update: next group underway

**lipsdapips**

Noooice, good stuff - have to agree with everybody that the masked henchmen looks extra neat. Also i'm loving the use of the old pewter Cadian command squad, used to have them way back when...for some reason the memories are fond so consider me a fan

**Knightley**

Cheers LDP, I remember your cadians back in the day that is, boy that was a while ago

Update: reds and blacks done

**Azazelx**

This is one awesome looking Inquisitorial force! I love the individuality you've given each and every model, and all of the very clever and creative conversions look outstanding as well. I think we need an army-in-progress shot soon!

**Spacewolverine**

They are turning out quite nice. Its amazing what you can do with bits.

**Knightley**

@Azazelx - Thanks dude, this is the last squad so I think a group shot now would be wasted

@Wolverine - Cheers dude I do love my bits

Update: some work done on the camo cloak, thoughts?

**Camkierhi**

Jeez hard to keep up here, you are popping these out!

Cracking work, totally got comms guy with the old "roger wilko" feel with that mask.
