Epic Scale Grot Bomb Launcha

I still really like this conversion I did… I actually did this conversion some time ago.

However it still remains one of my favourite conversions. I do wonder if Forgeworld will ever release an Epic version of their own 40K scale modem, but they seem to take an age to produce Epic Ork models.

You can see how I made the conversion here.

Built Forgeworld Epic Squiggoth

Glued all the little pieces together…

I have (following the pictures on the Forgeworld website) glued my Epic Squiggoth together.

It came together relatively easily and it helped having a picture reference especially when it came to sticking the gun platform on.

It is a very well detailed model and full of character.

Epic Baneblade

The original Epic40K BaneBlade model is a really nice model.

Very well detailed and a joy to paint. This model is painted in my Imperial Guard (British Army) colours of green and black.

Goblin Fanatic Cannon

This is a photo of the excellent Warmaster Goblin Fanatic Cannon which is a superb little model and rather amusing.

Extra Large Ork Landa

Now here’s a way of getting lots of Orks on the ground…

I was thinking about the Defence Force and about having some aircraft or ships larger than the ones sold by Forgeworld (and GW) and have thought about for some time a large Ork Heavy Bomber converted from the FW Imperial Maurauders.

I also like the Landa concept from Epic Armageddon though I think the model is somewhat too small (hopefully FW will bring out a “bigger” in scale version).

I also noticed the resemblance between the Landa and the Rebel Transport in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back.

As I purchased many moons ago the AMT/ERTL Hot Base kit which comes with an approximate 1/200th scale model kit of the Rebel Transport, I got thinking. It would make a great Extra Large Landa (or should that be a Big Landa in Ork speak).

I had thought originally about using the Transport as an Imperial Transport, but the more I look at it the more I keep thinking Ork Landa…

Ork Kult of Speed

Ork Kult of Speed racing across my cityfight terrain.

This picture shows my Ork Kult of Speed (lots of conversions in there) racing across my cityfight terrain.

This is how I picture a Kult of Speed should operate, lots of vehicles, lots of speed and no organisation….

Excellent Snowy Terrain

Stormseer from the EpiComms forums has spent quite a few weeks now working on an Adeptus Mechanicus Research Base.

This picture is just one part of this huge creative exercise and shows the satellite dish.

Clear the runway…

I have been thinking about making an Ork Airfield as a terrain board complete with wrecks, flak emplacements, huts, hangars, towers and other bitz and pieces.

Though my terrain is in the main green, I think I may go for a desert feel as this is more akin to how I feel about the Ork Airfield Defence Force.

Now can I find the time to get this part of the project started!
