Here is a shot of the completed forces so far.
Still have a way to go. You will notice the Gunwagons and support vehicles mixed amongst the Feral Ork Junkatrukks.

Ork Airfield Defence Force* airfield vehicles
I have finished two of my Ork Airfield Defence Force* airfield vehicles.
They have been painted in oranges and browns, and then washed in an ink, paint water mix.
Detailing was then added.
* I know a more Orkish name would be more in keeping with the fluff…
“Doctor Who is Saturday night hit”
According to the BBC News, Doctor Who was a “Saturday night hit” with 10.5 million viewers.
I did watch it and really enjoyed it, it was quite good. It would seem that quite a few other people also tuned in. It will be interesting to see if Doctor Who can maintain these viewing figures over the 13 episode series.
Empire Characters
I have been working on some Empire characters for Warmaster.
I keep leaving them and coming back to them.
Finished the bases though.
Guardian says in reference to Daleks, “This time they can fly…”
Well with Doctor Who back on the telly tonight (yeah), The Guardian on the front of their weekly Guide have a couple of Daleks with the byline This time they can fly…
The Daily Mirror back in October also mentioned how the Daleks can now fly!
Well this is where I turn into a real Doctor Who anorak…
As anyone who has seen Remembrance of the Daleks (from the Sylvester McCoy era) will know that Daleks could fly upstairs and was used to great effect in the first episode cliffhanger.
The Doctor runs up the stairs to escape a Dalek only to find the Dalek could now fly up the stairs…
So Daleks have been able to fly since 1988 (or should that be 1963 as that is when the episode is set).
All you really need to know is that Doctor Who is back on BBC 1 tonight at 7pm and there is also a behind the scenes programme straight afterwards on BBC THREE.
Ork Standard Bearer
Added some more detail to my Feral Ork Standard Bearer.
Not much real progress there.
Boar
I am adding some more Boar Boyz to my Feral Ork army.
This is the latest boar.
Doctor Who back on the television on the 26th March…
Reminder, he’s coming…
Just a reminder that Doctor Who will be back on your TV screens this Saturday at 7pm on BBC One, with an additional feature on BBC Three straight afterwards.
Big Gunz Krew
I have been painting some more krew for my Big Gunz.
With only the two crew supplied, an opponent can quickly make your Gunz useless by killing them. By adding extra crew the Gunz last longer and thus do more damage.
Junkatrukks
Here are two more Junkatrukks for my Feral Ork army, which will also be used as vehicles for my Ork Airfield Defence Force…
I know they could do with some detailing and maybe the odd glyph or two…
The models were painted vomit brown and then given an ink wash.
Before I would use a plain ink wash, but after reading an article on Dropship, I added some Scorched Brown to the ink and water mix and as a result the finished models are not as glossy as when I have used an ink wash.
The models were then drybrushed with the original base coat to highlight and to matt down the slight glossness caused by the wash.
