This is my Ork with Rokkit Launcha.
As you can see I have (again) used Citadel’s new Foundation Paints to paint the rokkits, they still need highlighting and other things done, but the red does cover the black undercoat quite easily.

Ork with Big Shoota
This is one of my conversions, an Ork with a Big Shoota. The Ork has had his Shoota extended with barrel of another Shoota to make a Big Shoota.
I started off with a black undercoat and then do all the metallic bitz with a drybrush of tin bitz and chainmail. I then do all the Ork skin with a dark green, usually Snot Green.
I then highlighted with Goblin Green before doing final highlights with a mixture of Goblin Green and Bleached Bone.
Still some way to go…
Ork Wartrakk
This is where I last left my Ork Wartrakk with converted tracks and searchlight.
I have now painted the seat.
Once I have painted some of the stowage, I am going to give the bodywork a wash of Chestnut Ink and a small amount of Scorched Brown to reduce the glossy effect of the ink.
Ork Kommando with Burna
The Ork Kommando with Burna comes as two castings.
The actual model comprises four components, the main body, a backpack and the two arms, one of which has the actual burna.
Fitting the model together was relatively easy, the arms fitted well and there are only minimal gaps which need filling.
At the moment I am not sure whether to attach the backpack now or later.
Next stage will be using green stuff to fill the gaps.
Ork Looted Rhino
I have done some more work on my Ork Looted Rhino.
This is the opposing view.
I still have to paint some more of the detail black and finish off the brown basecoat. I will then give it a wash and a drybrush before adding more detail.
First use of Foundation Paints – Ork with Rokkit Launcha
This is the first time I used the new Citadel Foundation Paints on a miniature. I painted the rokkit cone of one of my Orks with a Rokkit Launcha using the red.
The paints seemed rather thick, but did cover well (it does what it says on the tin). I then tried other paints on some other Orks. I think they are going to be useful for the miniatures I use a black undercoat on.
Painting more of the Ork Looted Rhino
I have done some more work on my Ork Looted Rhino.
I still have to paint some of the detail black and finish off the brown basecoat. I will then give it a wash and a drybrush before adding more detail.
Grey Knight Librarian Terminator
I am slowly building up my Grey Knights army (and doing even less painting).
I purchased the new Space Marine Librarian in Terminator armour as I really do like the model and for me will certainly fit into my Grey Knights army with all the books and purity seals.
Obviously at £8 it is quite expensive for a single model, but then when has Games Workshop even made “cheap” models.
Nice model and nice that all the weapon options are included.
Ork Kommando with Burna (again) didn’t realise I had one already…
When I got my XXX White Dwarf figure I purchased an Ork Kommando with Burna as I wanted the figure to go with my Ork Kommandos.
What I had forgotten was I had purchased the very same figure in March!
Doh!
Ah well so I have two now.
So that means more than one way to burn Imperial Guard tanks!
Make your own decals
I have been looking to make my own water-transfers and so was pleased to find this supplier. Basically you print your decals and (if using an inkjet) seal them and then put them on your models.
