Man, I've gotta get on this. A kick in the arse to get painting is just what I need! I only hope it will carry over into my own projects once the Orkses are done

I don't think I ever got kb's address...

If you're donating a model, I will get oadie to send you his address so you can ship to murica instead of Australia (and save on shipping).

If you need a model, the please pm oadie as he has some spares he can ship to you.

Welcome aboard!

Given the amount of orks you have to paint, you sure do need a kick

Oh, I've got plenty of extra Orks to lend. Should be able to get them done up in the next couple of days. .

A gorgeous Ork received today from mockingbirduk.

Not a complaint, guys, but if you don't know my name or you lost my label, please don't write "Buttery Commissar" on anything bigger than a letter box slot. Ask me for my name.
If I'm not home I cannot produce ID at the post office that says I'm a commissar, and in all seriousness they will not let me have it without scheduled redelivery.

Mr Buttery, I pm'd you the other day for your address so that I can get Marlok Brandork sent off to you.

My apologies, I am so tired right now that I thought I'd replied.

No sweat, I'll get him posted this week.

WarBoss Nutzkratcher is finally all parceled up and will be winging 'iz way come Monday

Have the NA orks shipped out yet?

I should have thought of that... Apologies for my idiocy!

Not a worry, your parcel arrived safely!

I only thought about it because I sent a cushion to my friend using her "Pony" name from a forum, and she could not claim it due to having no ID.

Mum sent a photo of the mini mob.

It's not very mobby, likely because she was scared that putting them too close together might cause an accident.

This is going to look just amazing when they all come together.

Awesome they are looking very good.

Afraid I'm only at the undercoat stage at the moment. I've done a few minor mods just to make them look less like every other AOBR boy and added one of my own AOBR model just because.

I remembered this post from the forums and found it again, quite useful if you want to do some easy changes to the boyz.

I have the Ork boy in hand. Just need to get it painted and posted!

Ustrello, I do not believe US bros have had their stuff shipped yet.

My understanding is that oadie is a huge distance from the post office, and busy as hell. It will get there mate, I'm sure.

The sensible thing would be to just legally change your name. Or just head down to pick it up in full commissar regalia.

I can understand the post office’s reluctance. How do they know you are the real you, and not I Can’t Believe It’s Not Buttery Commissar? With all the packages they deal with, there is not a lot of margarine for error.

Bit of an update to show that am actually working on this thing and not just pinching a model.



It's coming along quite well, i'll be quite happy to see what it looks like when I finish it up.

That said, I am about to go away from the 27th to the 9th and then again from the 17th to the 27th, so it may be some time before I get the chance to drop it off.

@ nevelon - *groan* penal legions for you fella

I need to see BC cosplay as a commissar in a post office. Now.

Yaaasssss! Another biker. Someone to race

What you're effectively saying here is, "BC please walk into the post office dressed as a pseudo Nazi, and ask for mail that isn't addressed to you, I look forward to reading about you in the news."

He is in fact a Deffkopta pilot. He will still race you though.

Thanks KB, wanted to make sure I wasn't missed. I got some ideas rolling around I want to try on the deffkopter

Your point?

It's rather hard to mail Orks from jail. I'm also fairly sure they don't allow paintbrushes or hobby knives.
Plus I'm not familiar with the prison system, but I'm also fairly sure that "skinny, effete commissar impersonator" would not get me very far.

I'm sure your mum would post them to me, I'm also sure you'd go a really long way in jail like that, maybe not the direction you would have liked though.

You should at least try it and see how it goes

“Can I borrow your shiv? I need to clean up some mould lines."

"...I'm not interested in smuggling cigarettes in, but I could certainly add OSL to that tattoo on your knuckles."

"Honestly, it's as though whoever started this tunnel hadn't even heard of pre-built terrain..."

Oh, and then it got dark all of a sudden.
