Update on Krumpy: electronics removed for soldering, magnets in place to allow changing lower arms, and safer transport for upper arms.

I suppose I didn't mention that earlier. KB, I hope you don't mind magnets.

Have the US orks been shipped?

Dont wanna sound like a nag but im still sitting and waiting. South africa is in termoil cause ther aint no orks

US orks have not shipped yet, I will see if I can get an ETA from oadie

No idea if BC has shipped for you yet KP, but will find out

In other news, thanks to the Git 'er done thread, my ork has been completed;

OK NOW you show up and show us how it's done!!

Nice job sir.

Lol, next to the likes of you, Winter, Jan, Para, MG, alan, and pretty much everyone else's work I've seen, my ork must be the one with the best personality, because he's surely not the nicest to look at

You know, I've never been a huge fan of the muzzle flash pieces, but that looks pretty awesome

That's funny because i actually dislike it

It is magnetized though so hardly a big deal

So you're cool with magnets.

This bodes well for Krumpy.

Magnetizing is probably the thing I'm best with in this hobby, which isn't really saying a lot!

Good stuff kb! He looks very good and will fit right in with the Mob, I'm sure!

Dat's a right good looking Nob right dere, kb!

Checking in once more, finished the soldering, the magnet work, and the basecoats. So now it's down to the detail work, which could take a while, so this should be my last update until product is fin.

Krumpy da Deff Dread!


Brought to you by J. J. Abrams.


Battery and button placement, so KB can see what he'll be dealing with.

That's glorious work dude

HOLY BUTTS!

Love it!!!

fan-gorking-tastic!! great work!

That's the best OSL I've ever seen .

Brilliant work on that deffdread! Totally love the lights.

And nice tidy paint Job On your own ork kb. Well done for gettin' it done. This is going to be an enviable force when it's all assembled.

That does it - ALL of my dreads are getting lights. Anything that can, will. I've added a light for my "Gaze of mork" on the big mek stompa, but I'm getting LEDs for everything. It's a shame my killa kans are already assembled :(

You know, it's surprisingly cheap to do: $1 for the LEDs and batteries, couple more for the battery slot and switch if that's your speed. I recommend it, mostly just a matter of planning and patience.

Any updates on whats sent whats received and who needs to be tar and feathered?

I won't be encouraging any tarring or feathering tbh, lots of folks have all kinds of problems slowing them down. I've heard from most of the outstanding painters and they're all still ticking along.

Really not sure what to do with oadies stuff, I'll pm him again soon and potentially try to get a replacement intermediary (if some US person has the time and inclination to help)

Ok, no tarring , or featherin. Hope everybody is ok and that the curve balls that life does throw at you gets smacked out of the ballpark for a homerun,

ALRIGHTY I AM NOW SEEKING A TRUSTWORTHY AMERIBRO WHO CAN RECEIVE, REPACK, AND SHIP OUT A POOPLOAD OF ORKS

I have more orks stateside and no-one to deliver them. It will be tedious and take at least a day of BS, but I'll love you forever.

are you talking about one grand shipment or many smaller ones?

I've only been following this from the sidelines so not completely up on the whole experiment

Both. I want to ship a box of orks to someone and have them on ship to each of the painters. Additionally, if they could receive all the returns and on ship to me, that'd be amazing. Ideally I'd like them to paint something too!

If I thought I could reliably dig up that many small boxes (for single /a couple orks each) I'd offer. But as it stands I'm pretty confident that I'd have to choose between shipping the orks out in a timely manner and eating for the month.

Well, I have the time, and I'm sure I can find or steal boxes, I'm just not 100% sure I'd have postage for every single one, in a timely fashion. There could be a few delays, but if that's acceptable - or perhaps we just did a portion at a time - then PM me. I'd be fine receiving all (after painting) and shipping on to you, that's like just a one time deal.

Meanwhile the only problem I can really see is while I'm an American, am def not a bro

anyway, lemme know. No worries if someone else steps up

As it is, real life kicked my previous ameribro in the nads and he's be unable to ship for like 6 months. Timely delays don't fuss me in the least!

Bros don't have to be dudes, and I am pretty sure that I told you my superpower is being so inept and helpless that women feel almost obligated to help me

Seriously though, I'd be delighted if you'd do it Guildenstern - I will PM now and make sure he's down to forward the box on to you, otherwise I have found another AOBR set in murica so I can get them. Obviously, all shipping is covered by me in all directions!
