HA, the O-Team! i'm so gonna do that! :-) great idea and right up my alley. I'm also going to use that metal technique style on my Kans and Trukks etc. then add some spot colours on bolted on plates with hazard stripes and reds and stuff :-) that way it's time friendly and keeps it looking Orkish and dirty.


I've finished and based 2 of the Nobz! but I can't pester you with a half assed update so you have to wait :-)

Someday, we'll play some kill team/skirmish, and we'll put the O-Team through its paces.

damo you need to make a nob with a mohawk and a big gold chain and have him pity the fool...

Do some free hand on his knuckles- PITY on one hand, FOOL on the other

List is completed as well as traveling around the world when i type.

What the? Im a Marine lover dammit! MARINES YA HEAR ME YA SCURVY DOGS!!!! then why the hell am I enjoying converting Orks!? WHY?


Soooooo, you wanna see my first Stormboy I kit bashed? I made some bases to give a squad varying heights and action poses then made a simple Orkish rocket pack from bits I got in the Secret Santa last month! chucked on a SC head and arms and presto a pretty damn nice looking Boy leaping into the fray and oozing character

next I might make my own Zagstruk?









A squad of ten is going to look freakin' cool if apparently hopeless on the table!

>Stormboy squad in production.
>Giant turbine being used as basing material.
>Not strapped to the back of a stormboy.

Dammit Nerdy, you had one job!



Other then that, Green2015 is off to a rip roaring start.

It's not strapped to his back, but he's obviously ridden in on the turbine to get a boost for when he jumps off with his own rocket-pack Turbine-surfing, it's the future

Good job on the jet-pack, looks perfectly orky

Very nice work Damo, as per usual! Great pose too.

Propulsion is the name of the game here hence the leap of faith fromt the turbine, add the rocket pack " in this case littarley " hey presto self made kamikaze pilot

You have created a nice characteristic look here but the question is can you continue it with the rest

Marines can kiss my green arse LOL

Lol thanks dude I think I certainly can keep up the characteristic characterful poses ;-) but it's up to you to make sure I do it correctly and they are up to snuff!? do you think I should make a Zagstruk? or just a squad of Stormies?

Well the question is do you want to build Zagstruk ? after all if you're not bothered then I would say no for the simple fact you have to be inspired to do it

However I would like to see your version of him I am wondering what other items you could use for basing, how about a turbine facing straight up pushing the storm boy into the air just another take on your idea but following the theme.

LDD I love you manishly right now lol :-) yes I am inspired so I'll Zagstruk it up! and the turbine idea is gonna happen for sure!

Trapolines!

Or a circus Cannon?

A circus cannon firing turbine-propelled trampolines being held aloft by grots wearing angel wings would be awesome

+1 that sounds really cool MT, to the nerd lair Damo lol

Nananananananana! NERDMAN!

Woah. Cybernetics look ace!

You guys are fething nuts

Nerdman ermmmmm you have given me an idea now

trampoline wire mesh and a small round lid with the middle cut out some simple peg legs now that could work

Grot cannon firing stormies yes see that one as well

Hrm. Maybe you can get ahold of some Doom Diver goblins.

So what can I obtain to use as a cannon? is there one already available I could utilize? plastic empire or Ogre something? i'm not sure on fantasy model ranges :-)

Trampoline is already in production

Hellcannon


De-chaosify it. Orkify it.

You mean pvc pipe?

a good ork would scratch build that

Yes selfbuild no bought crap just some Plastic tubing and thin plastic strips then add rivets, its Orks no need to be classy

Lets see the trampoline then

Whenever a rokkit boy crashes and burns, he will certainly be the first one

Give the rokkit boy some moon shoes, just in case he doesn't quite "stick" the landing.

Nice painting on these orks Damo !
I like the skin tones, and the rusted metals are a classical on orks, but yours look interisting. I like it.

However I think I wouldn't have painted the eyes red, they don't pop enough because of the red berets and the rust. At least for the bionic eyes I'd change the color.
Maybe it's a detail, but since they look good overall, details are what we can help for.

Thanks Minus, feedback always appreciated mate! :-) I like the rust on these guys as it's easy to do in large area and amounts so we'll see how it translates into trukks etc later on!

the eyes are just how i've always known Ork eyes to be! red eyes with green blood! I've held back on the fungal green blood but I'm afraid i'll stick to the red eyes! :-) at least in photo's they won't get redeye.....

Oops last time I commented I clearly missed the last page
The storm boy look awesome! I realky think Zagstruck would be a great conversion to do and the up-facing turbine suggestion's definitely a good one
