owens ork hoard

[shanks]

as well as my emperors palace WIP i thought i would start a WIP thread of my evil sunz ork army, something to look back on for myself as the army grows too, i have gone for a battle worn and rusting look and on lava bases, i will start with my warlord Ghazghkull Thraka which i repositioned to give a more dynamic pose, added a flamer, a gretchin holding a space marine head and giving the V, and some trophy poles.


2nd piece is forge world mega dread, i actually had to repaint this as i got a dodgy GW purity seal and turned paint grey, now use army painter anti shine, i'm still getting used to new camera so hopefully pictures will get better


will add my other pieces over nexy few days, enjoy and let me know what you think, cheers

shanks - Your army is coming along nicely, but I have a quick gestion about the mega dread, how tall, and is the base a 60mm wide one?

Can't wait for more.

[shanks]

hi dudde, the base is 100mm and the dread is 145mm high and 175mm wide

[shanks]

next up is a warbuggy


my personal favorite is the kill krusha tank from forge world, i painted all the interior before putting together as well as the tracks etc, added a death korp commisar as a trophy pole


a squad of ork gretchin and runthearder

will add some more next couple days, bye

here is my biggest piece todate, the GW stompa, i have added a couple flamers and fuel barrel to chainsaw, made a large evil sunz icon out of plasticard, each segmant done seperate so gives it a 3 dimensional look and large space marine trophy pole, comments welcome, thanks

Nice stuff!
I don't know why, I especially like the old buggy, your paint job add a lot to this vintage kit!

hi all
been a while since i done anything so started to convert some kopters from the black reach set, i am converting them using bits and bobs and some sopwith camel and fokker models, have left the wings off for now for ease of painting, eventually i will make 6, i am also converting a bomber from GW anyway, here are a couple pictures of progress

They look really nice and gritty just how orks should be. Loving all the battle damage especially.

Looking forward to the bi plane bombers as well.


Cheers

here are a couple of shots of my bommer with rear gunner, inspiration again from WW planes, i have converted it using plastikard, model of a star wars ship and various bits and bobs from bits box, still some work to do on it also a couple pictures of the flying base, my models are on lava bases but cant get one big enough for flyers so did my own in green stuff, slate and stones, let me know what ou think, thanks

[shanks]

finally finished my bommer, engines converted from various sources including star wars model, missiles firing using woodland scenics bushes, the engine exhaust flames are from resin
there is a gun emplacement to rear where the original engine was, added a manticore missile to under carraige, painted in usual battle worn and rusting look

[shanks]

finished my first of 3 converted deffcoptas, based on first world war bi plane, there will be 6 eventually in various designs

The Old School buggy with the Old school paint job made me smile. Very nice.
