Orkshire makes me happy.

It makes me happy too.
Lots of updates soon, but right now nothing much to show. I currently have a production line on the go, for standard Ork boyz, Kommandoz and Gretchin.

Working on my own Warboss; Gridge Skullchewer

I decided Gridge wasn't going to have the standard AOBR warboss backpack (Why would he need two guns strapped to his back?) so I'm trying my hand at a little sculpting to give him a new back. Seems to be going OK.

Meanwhile... GROTZ!

oh yay grots.. building up some nice skin tones.

Long time no update. Life has been getting in the way, which means I am way behind with my painting (I stopped painting for a while, yet continued buying Orks!).
The waaagh grows, but for now all I have to show for it is a Predator I got from my brother, that I hastily converted.

Hugely impressed by the quality of maxmini's Badass Biker. £14 as opposed to £40 for FW's Bike Warlord.

Size comparison of the Maxmini Badass Orc alongside a standard GW Ork and a GW Stormboy.


Up next; Second hand Rhino conversion.

So, it's a Razorback, not a Rhino. Damn Marines. Whatever it was, it belongs to Kaptin Skullchewer now.

A few better pictures of the Razorback.

That bad, huh? Oh well.
Here are some Cyborks I'm working on.

So is that razorback a battlewagon or what? And that cybork looks awesome. I completely forgot about this thread though where have you been!

It is a battlewagon. It's a little smaller than the GW model, but not by much.
Thanks. The cyborks are pretty much done now, I didn't do much more than add some rust to their arms.
Life has been keeping me away from painting. But I'm back!
Expect to see a maxmini Ork Biker here soon.

That sounds awesome. And I like your idea there. I feel like I should get back into my orks :/

*Gasp*
Traitor!

But... the greater good :(

great ork work squid. Sadly my orks are gone now too. I let them waghh for others.

Awe its ok mate. Keep it together.. I am still gunna paint some every now and again because i do commission work.

BTW great ride!

Tanks boss!
Your stuff in the other thread is looking awesome, as always!

Work continues on Orkshire. This will get airbrushed black before being painted, but I'm not doing it tonight as there's no bulb in the shed.

Woah what happened to the orks of america :(

So basically you've both abandoned your Orks.
That's really disappointing. I think a player should pick an army and stick to it!
You let me down guys.

Anyway, here are my new Orks...


Using the Wracks to find a flesh tone I like.


Orks will still be my main guys, I just fancied painting something else.

First Wrack done, other than his base. Not totally awful.

Back tot the Orks, nearly finished on my Warboss.

Orkville looks like it's coming together Squiddy!

Like the gun arm on Skullchewer, and digging the plough on the looted wagon, looks great

Thanks Will try and take some more pictures of Orkshire tomorrow, as we're having a 2 V 2 game on it.



Skullchewer now has a Bosspole.

Currently got a Loota production line going.

Work has started on the outside of a Big Mek's shop in Orkshire (Needs more rivets!)



And a pillar added inside to keep the upper floor stable.

That looks pretty awesome. Much better than the mek shop I built.

Thanks Pretty pleased with how it's coming along.

Yeah, digging that, very nice start
