mom...

here it is...:

http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/475041.page

i think its completly up your alley... you should join...!

Some progress shots.

HA! cool... you used the tomato juice caps... lol... now i know how this looks... and i like it!!!

interesting guns... i like the look of that UFO...

and...whats that new avatar pic from? looks cool too!

I'm not a 100% cetain with the gun placement. The idea of mouting them on the side seemed more appealing, but it took away from the saucer shape some, and required tme to seal the OFO (Ork Flying Object) , which I'm not ready to do. It does look nicely retro with the guns top mounted, so it may just staty that way.

My new Avatar is of my own design. I wanted my own logo I can add to stuff, and that's what I came up with.

oh... doubly cool then for the selfmade avatar and logo...!

hmm... for the guns i would suggest drilling cooling holes into the muzzles or the barrels... to add to the orky feel... and maybe some amo fed? other then that i think the OFO is shaping up extremly well!!!

Very impressive though I do feel you need a grot2d2...

^that... you are full of super suggestions today graven!!!

Sleep deprivation, lots of homemade chilli and earl grey tea are to blame.

i would rather call this a blessing... and i would never dare say a word against either earl grey not chilli... by the way... leftover chilli is the best thing that can hit the taste buds

Now that is looking awesome.

I added the tail wing and surface detail to the UFO..


Mostly added surface detail to the Orkwing

no, see, you should NEVER EVER allow a store to "get annoyed with you" for expecting them to order you a common $25 product! They probably didn't pay their last Bill and GW won't send anymore until they settle up, one of the local stores here does that crap, I won't shop there anymore.

If they have something on the shelf, at a discount, that I want I'll pick it up. They'll never get an order from me again.

Exceptional social grace and the desire to run a comic shop seem to be mutually exclusive concepts.

LMAO!!! even funnier as i was a comic addicted creep for almost ten years... all my first hard earned money as a school kid went there... what a shame as the guy in that shop was a total loonie...

and the orkwing looks good with the added detail...

the fins on the OFO look a bit like they made the whole thing is way stubbier now than before... wanted effect?

I grew up watching Grendizer, so my earliest memories of UFOs have tail fins.






Without the tail fin, UFOs look like they should spin.

Adamsouza just got a "Get Out Of Jail Free" card for that particular shout out!

^lol...


and adam... yes i see without the fins that is bound to happen...or better... they get shown this way...movies and such like...

Started painting the OFO



Going with the Yellow with Black flames Bad Moons motif

Thats because BadMoonz are the best klan there is. Not to mention, if there was klan that could afford to erm..."Purchase" a UFO, itd be them

Pretty much.

Dem Boyz better have lots uv teef to afford da 2 Stompas, 2 Dreads, 12+ Kans, 4+ DakkaJetts I plan to eventually field

the black needs some more coats.... but man! that yellow is looking totally awsome... will you do some freehand pics on the hull? like a buzzing bee?

like so:

Call me crazy, but I think the black is black permanent marker

Thats an assload of Kanz But dont worry, thats why Orks are da bestest. If they cant afford to pay for it, they just kill and steal until they get what they want.

hmmm.... i think that could be the case... was wondering about these"brushmarks" too...

Good god Vik, your a DCM NOW! Change your title already

i am not feeling the creative flow atm... hmm... or maybe i do... mom... let me think about that a sec...

er... wanted to do that... but couldn´t find the right way to do so...???

The flames right now are just black pernanent marker. I figured I'd go over it with black acrylic after I go tthe look I wanted. Also saves me from layering multiple coats

Instead of freehanding any critter features onto it I was thinking of a silver ring around the cockpit, a black triangle in front, and a white tail fin.

good idea with the permanent marker then!

but i am not too sure with the silver ring...looks a tad non orky to me... also you would ruin that cool sun...

Yoofo is coming on there adam

I'd skip the triangle in front of the cockpit if you're keeping the flame look, or switch it to a different colour.

vik, you can set the ranking track to 'use my occupation as rank', and then put what you want in your occupation.

Instead of the silver ring, make it checkers. I think the triangle and then a band of black and white (or yellow) checkers would look awesome. Be sure to use a pen or a pencil for drawing the checkers first, because they are tricky to do well, and easy to goof on

I love the terrain here, are you planning on doing more in the future?
