Here is a picture of my near-finished Epic Skorchaz.
As you can see from this close-up, still a few more things to do.
I am pleased with the end result, and think they look a lot better than my original Skorchaz.

I have now virtually finished my Epic Bowelburnaz.
Following an ink and paint wash, they were drybrushed with the base coat.
Some had a further drybrushing with a lighter shade.
Two have been converted using turrets from Ork Battlefortresses.
They need their undersides painted (they have been merely placed on their bases). I also want to add some more detailing as well.
My friend was very kind and gave (lent) me some Snapdragon scenery that had been hanging around some time…
This is a tank factory (or aerospace port).
A power station (or atmosphere processor aka ALIENS).
A Factory complex of some kind.
I really like these Snapdragon buildings and it is a real pity that they don’t make them anymore.
On my further two Epic Bowelburnaz I have finished the base coats and added my usual ink and paint wash. This photo was taken when the ink was still wet.
They will next be drybrushed to tone down the wash and then some further detailing added.
They have been converted using turrets from Ork Battlefortresses.
I have been painting my Epic Ork Skorchaz for my Ork Airfield Defence Force.
The black painted sections have now been drybrushed with Tin Bitz and Boltgun Metal.
I then painted the basecoat, using different colours of orange and brown for each vehicle.
The next stage is to give them an ink/paint wash.
I will then need to drybrush and add more detail and paint the krew.
I always thought the original metal Eldar flyers were a little, well bulky and solid for such a graceful race.
It was great at GamesDay to see Will Hayes showing off his new Epic scale Eldar Nightwing on the Forgeworld stand.
This is a beautifully sculptured model and would you believe it the wings even swing…
I am finishing off some more of my Forgeworld Epic Ork Gunwagons.
In this picture the ink, paint and water wash is still wet.
They have being painted in various shades, one was Snakebite Leather, another Blazing Orange and the other Vermin Brown. I do like the fact they look consistent yet different.
The next stage will be a drybrush in the basecoat to highlight the detail and tone down the wash.
