Subject: Ork - Scratch built and Converted models (and some Chaos)
Tee-hee! That is freaking awesome! My only niggle might be make the blood a little darker - Ork blood is supposed to be black (ish), dried blood is darker generally, and it'll contrast with the red of the bike generally. Love the burner boy helmet on the driver, too.

To be honest mate, i disagree, i sat here for hours looking at Bleeding ork lol and 9 out of 10 people paint them as i did, i looked at them coz i thought they might of had dark GREEN blood seeing as they are green skins, i know orks in films suck as LotR and that, all have black/very dark red blood, so i just did what everyone else does, coz im a sheep hahaha
Fair dos mate, fair dos I stand by my point about it being slightly darker for contrast from the red of the bike though, but hey, it's your glorious hog!

lol omg i can't win, yeah just remember i'm still finding my feet with this videoing, for any detail stuff mate see photos
The focus looks fine but strong, even lighting makes all the difference. It was really cool seeing the stuff on video but the light levels were a touch too low - it was like "That looks awesome! I think!"

thanks mate, i just put it together with the roller and arms all magnetised, the lined it up with the Rhino and the built the brackets and magnetised that. i think the GW roller works really really well with the Rhino model when orking it up.
