Jet pack equipped Orks whom fly into battle.
I have been making progress on my jet packed Ork Stormboyz.
I am using the same process on these which I have used on my other Orks, however I may use shades of brown rather than grey.
The jump packs are being painted with different colours of brown with red nose cones.
Some of the models have used Warhammer Fantasy Orc components.
This is a Forgeworld Ork Gunwagon from their Display Cabinets at GamesDay 2005.
This is a well painted model and if you look at this close-up it will give you some ideas on how to weather your Ork models.
I use to not like this model, the fact it was based on that awful plastic four wheeled Ork Battlewagon (from GW a few years back) was probably the reason.
However I think because I got some of the Epic Ork Gunwagons I have grown to like it. I did try and buy the basic Gunwagon at GamesDay, but they had none in stock.
This is a Forgeworld Ork Battlefortress from their Display Cabinets at GamesDay 2005.
This is a close-up of the Heavy Shooota Boyz in the top of the Battlefortress.
When this model first came out, I was not a great fan, having seen the model quite a few times I now quite like it (and if I could afford it would get one).
Orc Ork Conversion using the Warhammer Fantasy Battle Orc sprue.
Here are two of my conversion using the Warhammer Orc sprue for my Ork Boyz.
Made more progress on my Ork Lootaz.
The weapons are from the Space Marine Landspeeder kit.
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.
Having finished two others, I am now working on two more Epic Bowelburnaz.
They have been converted using turrets from Ork Battlefortresses.
This is a Forgeworld Looted Rhino from their Display Cabinets at GamesDay 2005.
This is the actual conversion kit/model. The picture I posted previously was just a conversion using some Forgeworld parts and roller.
I already have a workbench feature on my Grot Bomb Launcha however I did get another model of one at GamesDay 2005.
This one I am aiming to do differently with as my previous one a converted driver, this one though I want to do a different track unit and extra gubbinz and baggage on top.
The driver uses the Deth Kopta pilot.
This is how far I have got with my Forgeworld Ork Bommer. Still some way to go…
I have blacklined the creases, drybrushed with Tin Bitz and Boltgun Metal. I am now painting the panels with Vomit Brown. It will then be given an ink/paint wash, drybrushed and highlighted.
