Another one of my converted Epic Ork Battlefortress.
I have replaced many of the supplied weaponry with different weapons. They include flak gunz from Flak Wagonz, Pulsa Rokkits and Buggy Gunnerz.
Another view.

This very nicely done Ork Bommer was on display in the Gaming Club Network display cabinets at GamesDay 2007.
I do like this model and wouldn’t mind getting one, though the amount of time it has taken me to model and paint my Ork Fighter makes me think that if I did get one, it will probably be 2015 before it ever flew over the gaming table!
Also Forge World are going to make 28mm versions of their Heavy Ork Bommerz which they recently produced for aeronautica imperialis and that might be even more fun to make and paint.

I have been re-looking at my Killa Kans after reading this very interesting article on the Games Workshop US website.
Mine are currently looking like this:
This is how mine were painted.
The article gives some interesting ideas and concepts on painting Ork Killa Kans and Dreadnoughts.
An interesting Ork Battlefortress which was on display in the Gaming Club Network cabinets at GamesDay 2007.
Here is my Ork Sqwadron Commander, which I have assembled. Some minor cleaning and it went together very easily.
It is a really nice model.
I would like to build him an airfield, hangars, flak guns, meks… but in the end he will need to make do with just my Ork Bommer.
I have started work on an Ork Gunner for my Looted Rhino. I have used a resin Twin Big Shoota from Forge World. A plastic Ork body and an Imperial turret ring.
Here is how it is looking with the gunner. Not sure what I am going to do with the other hatch space.
I am quite pleased with how the model is looking, I still need to do a lot to the paint job, but conversion wise I like the result so far.
With the release of Codex Orks in January, I wonder if we will see anything new from Forge World.
When the Dark Angels Codex was released we saw a nice new Forge World Dark Angels Dreadnought.
We haven’t see much new stuff for the Orks over the last few years and it will be interesting to see if there will be anything.
It would be nice to see some new Ork vehicles as well as conversion kits for the new Trukk.
I wonder if any heavy Ork artillery will be made, something like a large Pulsa Rokkit.
I gather from talking to Forge World staff at GamesDay that we will see (at some point) a 28mm version of the Aeronautica Imperialis Ork Heavy Bommer which was recently released.
I would like to see a variant Squiggoth (the £75 version not the £200 one) possibly with an armoured turret (akin to the Epic models).
I doubt we will see an Ork Gargant or a Stompa, but you never know.
At GamesDay 2007 I got one of the show only limited edition miniatures, the Ork Sqwadron Commander.
A very nice casting which comprises three pieces.
You get the main body and two arms, this is the rear view.
It is a really nice casting and I am looking forward to painting it.
Workbench feature on the Ork Sqwadron Commander for future updates.
I have put together my third Grot Bomb Launcha.
You can see how I put together and painted my first on this section of my website and how far I have got with the second here.
This casting was so much better than my second model. There was virtually no flash and no warpage (is that a word) either. It fitted together really nicely.
This is probably my favourite model of all time, so I will be pleased when I have finished all three and I have a barrage of them.
