Haha, he looks awesome. More than happy to have him added to the waaagh matey. You don't have to completely remove the base if it is a pita for you, I've got tricks for custom bases already attached.

**oadie**

Another Ork joins and I don't even have to ship it? This is going better than I ever could have imagined!

**methebest**

My boy arrived today.

**kb_lock**

Awesome, Kes_sec has his arrive the other day to

I'll undercoat mine tonight probably

**Camkierhi**

Update on my efforts, still very WIP.......

**oadie**

Man, I'm slacking! Still have a decent bit of time before I receive the NA shipment, but I paint so slowly, I should at least have my boy primed, soon (the joys of having extras

). At least I cleaned all of his moldlines...

**Desubot**

Wait NA shipment already shipped?

**kb_lock**

Shipped to oadie, yes.

Should get there next week i imagine

Cam that looks absolutely amazing

**MrFlutterPie**

This is a really cool idea. I am really looking forward to seeing the whole thing finished in a army shot.

Subbed

**Camkierhi**

Finished, shipping soon....

Spoiler:

Now it's over to you guy's,

**kb_lock**

You've either motivated or utterly demoralized a ton of painters there mate, that is brilliant.

To everyone else that isn't a golden daemon winner, don't feel like i won't love your little Ork less than anyone else's. The point is that they will be all different - some will be amazing, some will be less so. They're orks, that's how they should be!

**Matthew**

Do they have to be green?

**kb_lock**

Ideally, yes

**Matthew**

Well, I don't have WAAAGH flesh or any other Orky greens, but I do have Castellan Green and Loren Forest, can I use those?

**methebest**

I'll be using caliban green, i don't even know why i have it, as i'm not a huge fan of green.

**kb_lock**

I don't care what green it is, if you have any green, that is the correct green.

If you do not have green, feel free to mix blue and yellow together.

If you do not have green, blue, or yellow, well then I'd need to ask why you signed up to paint orks

**ColonelFazackerley**

LOL

**Buttery Commissar**

One Orky delivery received yesterday! The majority should go easily as large letters.

They won't be setting off from here until next week, I'd apologise but I don't feel like it.

Family matter came up.

**queen_annes_revenge**

i'm excited for this. whats the sketch with the donations? do we send them once they arrive, or once theyre sent back?

AWESOME! It's about time something worked out for me HEH. Take your time BC, I'm super grateful that you're doing it at all, so speed is not an issue. The old adage of "Speed/Price/Quality - Pick any two" rings true here too, you're doing it for free, and doing it right - If I wanted you to do it quickly I'd pay you

Literally no idea what you are talking about brotato. Are you donating an ork as well? I remember packing one for you.

But..but...I...have a lot of red...

**Buttery Commissar**

Depending on how the date falls, I might be able to sneak an excursion for the mob to Nottingham and get some photos of them ~~on the lash in Bugman's~~ somewhere suitably epic for the British group before they fly back.
Depends on whether I'm due for a game that week.

Consider it a postcard of their 'ooliganism.

**kb_lock**

You could always delay sending them back by a week or two as well if that helps you line it up

**Buttery Commissar**

I'm pretty much there fortnightly these days anyhow.

I'll have to look for ideas this week. I'm not sure if I'm dedicated enough to make it funny.

**oadie**

The North American shipment has arrived, safe and sound! I'll make no apologies for lack of expediency, either, since 'laid back' was a major stipulation under which I signed up.

If the stars align, I hope to get them posted within the week. If not, they should be out by the next, at the latest. I'll chime back in once they've gone out (or I've taken long enough that I start feeling guilty

).

**tomcat31**

Dude... ive got a ton of orks already, and would happily donate a few. If you send me details of what you want, I'll send you some orks.

**kb_lock**

Thanks tomcat, feel free to paint one up as per the original post and I'll pm you a uk address to ship it too.

Pretty awesome to hear that oadie has the us shipment too

EVERYTHING'S COMING UP MILHOUSE!

**Ustrello**

THRILLHO!!

I still have to get mine in to you, can you wait a few days?

**kb_lock**

He hasn't shipped out the bare plastic ones yet boggy, you've got a solid 2 months before you'd miss the return shipment

Automatically Appended Next Post:
Also updated the op;

Buttery Commissar and oadie have received the European and North American shipments respectively. They will be shipping out soon(tm) and you should receive your models early next month!

Another super big thanks to BC and oadie, you're both really super.
