When I was about 8 or 9 years old I can remember begging my Dad to let me buy some space orks from my friends older brother. He was really against the idea as they were made of lead and he feared that I would eat them. I can remember thinking they were so cool and wanting to have them so much crying to my dad : 'I don’t want to eat them.... I just want to paint them.

I got back into the hobby a couple of years ago and have been painting my white space wolves for almost 2 years with a mix of old and new models.

I wanted a new painting mission that would be fun and stress free just to do now and then, I have decided to start back on the orks. I am not a fan of the newer look of the orks, I don’t want to be an old school purist but I think for me the nostalgia of 2nd edition/rogue trader Space Ork raiders is what is fuelling this one.

I'm about 3 months into this project now and it's on hold due to a big move across from UK to Australia.
The army will be a mix of different clans but with similar colours throughout to bind them together ( I think they call this synergy!) I play 6th edition so hope to use the army with the new codex if it ever arrives.


.In preparation for my move from UK to Australia I have been mulling over which army I should take. I am fearful of immigration in Australia taking my nice toys (thanks for all your comments on this by the way) and have decided just to take this army I am working on. I have decided to snap off the sand bases just in case this causes a problem.
But before I do this here are the finished units so far:


Finished bad moons



Evil Suns



Blood Axes



Death Skulls



Mega Nobz



Gretchin



Dakka Jet (note the pilot- gunner)





I have loads more models which is why I want to finish them off- maybe I will rebase them with a Mars theme or something different (like the pure sand from Australian beaches )

Wow now this brings back memories, great models and collection there. I think I have a few of the same figures!


A mate of mine had them. Odd to think that, given the way the Nobs now look, that the fellow with the chainsword and bolt pistol held crossed over his chest was Thrugg Bullneck, Ork Warboss.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562313/6239774.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562313/6239774.page GMT SPACE ORKS - 2nd EDITION/ ROGUE TRADER for 6th EDITION
Thanks for sharing these, very much enjoyed viewing them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562313/6240989.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562313/6240989.page GMT Re:SPACE ORKS - 2nd EDITION/ ROGUE TRADER for 6th EDITION Due to the move they are all boxed up now with lots more to paint. But I had one last go at this Blood axe weirdboy who I have had for years and always wanted to spend some time on.
