Ork Killa Kan

This is the third of my trio of Ork Killa Kans.

Originally I had planned to have a colour body, so the main body of the Killa Kan had a white undercoat as seen in the workbench feature.

Well as I started to paint it I knew that it wasn’t going to work and it wouldn’t look right. Maybe okay if it was a single Killa Kan, but in my squadron of three it was going to look odd. So I stopped painting the colour, let it dry and then went over the area with Chaos Black before drybrushing it.

This stage was to add some more detailing including painting the Ork glyphs.

I have blogged about the base previously.

Epic Imperial Guard AVRE

Here is an Imperial Guard Engineers conversion from Simon’s collection.

Epic Imperial Guard ARV
Epic Imperial Guard ARV

These conversions were made, probably about ten years ago.

It’s the hull from a Deathstrike Missile Launcher with the “claw” from an Ork Battlewagon.

From a fluff perspective, it can be easily imagined that an Ork army overtook an Imperial Guard tank factory and utilised many of the components including cranes on their own tanks and battlewagons.

Of course calling it an AVRE is a bit of a misnomer as I guess the Imperial Guard don’t have Royal Engineers, or do they?

Epic Imperial Guard Leman Russ conversion

Here is an Imperial Guard Leman Russ conversion from Simon’s collection.

These conversions were made, probably about ten years ago.

It’s a Leman Russ but with an Ork turret.

From a fluff perspective, it can be easily imagined that an Ork army overtook an Imperial Guard tank factory and utilised many of the components including the turrets on their own tanks and battlewagons.

If I remember correctly, from Simon’s perspective I think it was because he had all the Ork vehicles from the Epic 40000 boxed set that he decided to use the Ork turrets. I have posted another conversion to the blog before.

Inquisitorial Stormtroopers

With my Inquisitorial Stormtroopers I was giving them a desert feel I knew I was going to use sand, but also wanted some rocks as well, so I used some slate from the Warhammer 40K Urban Basing Kit. Having added the rocks I then using PVA (white glue) flocked the based with some Games Workshop sand. I do like the sand which has some small larger pieces of gravel, which adds a lot of nice texture. Once dry I then painted the bases Bestial Brown and drybrushed them with Bleached Bone.
