Hello,

Recently I ran into an insanely good deal on a Ork Stompa which I just couldn't pass up. I haven't put the Stompa together yet so I don't know how it will fit or look (If it doesn't end up looking good I may just add some sort of enemies attacking to finish the diorama.

I wanted to get a little feedback on the base so far and maybe see if I should add or remove anything. The only thing I am not completely happy with so far is the color of the sandbags but I may just repaint them.

Let me know what you think.

Looks great! The base is modeled well and the paint job is top notch.

Though, you should know that when I read your posts I always have Moss' voice running through my head because of your avatar

Anyways, the only thing I would suggest is having the Krieg models posed so that they look like they're interacting with each other, given their perilous situation. Maybe have one looking towards the other like he's suggesting something with those meltabombs.

Wow that is awesome. Can't wait to see it when it's done.

Muahahaha it has been my goal to get people to think I am Moss! Mission Accomplished!

Thanks for the nice words. It would be good to have the melta bombs more involved as it makes a lot of sense.

Looks really good.

I think the problem with the sandbags is that they are a quite shiney rather then the colour itself being wrong.

Thanks! You were correct. I did a little bit of drybrushing on the sandbags and it really helped the shine.

Looks good, what color are you painting the stompa?

Thanks, I just finished the major building of the Stompa about 30 minutes ago... wow that took a long time.

I am painting up yellow (bad moons) style. I am pretty much going to wing it as I go and hopefully it turns out alright. It will probably take a decade to paint as it is huge!

EDIT: I also can't use this base as the Stompa is WAY bigger than I thought it would be, so I have to make a new base as well.

Overall looks good - the only issue I have is that the sand bags are more like sand burlap sacks - but then again, most sandbags I see used are way to big.

Maybe post some pictures of the Stompa in comparation to the base you made?

Sure here you go. The base the stompa is on is slightly smaller but not by much.
