Here's the WIP pics from my Deathskulls Ork Warband. This week I'm wrapping up a whole wack of old abandoned Deathskulls projects, then I intend to get into some other clans. My general life-goal is to simply have a massive Ork horde with all clans represented in their own fluffy way.

To start, my "ammo runt"





For this "lobba"





And a second, very literal, lobba:






More to come this week!



Automatically Appended Next Post:
Deathskulls trukk. Two points in the cargo bed for magnetized add-ons. I made a stickbomb chukka, two arms, a wrecking ball and grabbin' grabbin klaw. I used lots of old school bits for this one, and it's the start of my new concept of chopping up 2nd Ed orks to use as tank crew, since they are so much smaller they don't 'fight' the vehicle design as much as the modern models do. I find it's a good cheat to help sell scale a little more. There's a hole in the front 'windshield' where the main armament will eventually end up. I'm open to suggestions!

I didn't field the deffkopta again. A few weeks later while in queue to get painted, I knocked it off the desk and it smashed like a pewter Wraithlord. The plastic deffkoptas came out in 5th edition, and the old Deffkopta was forever relegated to the bits bin.

Cut to last week: I'm wrapping up about a half dozen Deathskulls projects, and I'm hit with this image of a really janky deffkopta floating above the mob. What better use for this (fairly crummy) old model, than as a colour piece for a Deathskulls warband? So somewhat impulsively I dove in, gave it rokkits, a (handheld) big bomm, and a magnetized killsaw option. I used one of the old gorkamorka torsos, otherwise the pilot would have been too tall for the blades. I'm not terribly happy with the pose, but I really didn't plan this one; I did each mod at a time and didn't overthink it. For sturdiness I used a brass stand and coated the base with pennies. The Kopta, stand, and base are all removable for easy storage and potential lols if I ever decide to use it as some kind of ground vehicle.

These are awesome! You have a ton of creative skill, obviously, but your magnet work/planning is what's really on point IMO. Well done.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/786868/10759047.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/786868/10759047.page GMT Re:Waaagh In Progress (Looted Basilisk... or Battlewagon?)

Thanks, Gomez! The magnetization is a necessity: too many editions have come and gone over the years and I just got sick of hard work being forced into obsolescence!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/786868/10759055.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/786868/10759055.page GMT Re:Waaagh In Progress (Looted Basilisk... or Battlewagon?) 40k) and the other is a 2nd Edition Mek with a flame thrower. The cybork Nob is made from a million different things, including a chaos possessed marine arm, bass guitar strings, an old plasma pistol, an old pewter grot pistol, old dread/kan saws, the backside of a rokkit launcher, the arm from some epic 40k chaos war machine, a black ork helm, the breathey part at the front is a space marine backpack exhaust, and there's all manner of kustom bits from plasticard and greenstuff as well. I really wish I took a photo before I primed him.

These models were front and center in the display case at the Games Workshop where I worked. Looking at them now I see they aged... acceptably enough? My mind spiraled: At the very least I need to re-glue the broken limbs. While I'm at it, I figured I might as well re-paint the red to blue, to put them in line with the rest of my army fluff-wise. But what do I count cyborks as anyway? Throwing a mob of 10 slugga boys into a trukk feels like a waste of a trukk. Either way, size creep has rendered them looking quite weedy. I should add spacers between the shoulders and torsos. Nobs? I could count them as nobs. I'd put nobs in a trukk. But I'll have to give them more height and shoulder pads. Still not enough... extra mechanical bits to justify the statline? If I'm doing this much would should I strip the paint? Whatever, don't sweat it, just start hacking...

Here's what I ended up with.

Yes, it is a wheel, but it's supposed to be an ammo drum. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/786868/10818810.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/786868/10818810.page GMT Waaagh In Progress (Cyborks (nobs?))
My bad, I thought it was a cooling jacket around the barrels, but ammo drum is a funky idea too!
