I have undercoated my Ork Landa.
It is a really nice model, and it would be nice if Forgeworld made a 40K version.

Junkatrukks
I have made little progress with my Junkatrukks.
As you can see, since I last mentioned them, I have only managed to drybrush the metal parts.
I have since these pictures were taken experimented with an orange colour, but I am not sure at the moment, so I am only painting one to see how it comes out.
Deth Kopta Pilots
Here are two Deth Kopta pilots in the process of being painted.
They utilise parts from the original pilot and the plastic Ork Boyz sprue.
One difference with these then when I made the original model was that I stuck the flying handle to the model rather than try and assemble the whole thing when everything is painted.
Ork Shoota Boyz
This shot shows a work in progress of one of my Ork Boyz.
They are painted quite quickly in one respect, but I am still trying to get a good paint job on them.
I start 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, highlight with Goblin Green before doing final highlights with a mixture of Goblin Green and Bleached Bone.
The orks’ teeth are first done in Bleached Bone before final highlights of Skull White.
Uniforms (and I say that in the broadest possible sense with orks) are usually Codex Grey with highlights in a lighter grey.
Bases to fit in with the snow based theme and Cityfight games are done in Codex Grey before drybrushing with Skull White.
Here is a shot of some finished Boyz.
Grot Cutta
I have added some brown to the ropes which will eventually hold the sail. They will have a lighter highlight.
I like the detail on this model and it’s a pity you can’t get them anymore (easily).
I am still considering what I should make the sail out of. Any ideas welcome.
Wartrakk Gunner
Wartrakk Gunner for a Trukk or Squiggoth…
If you get an Ork Skorcha or Grot Bomb Launcha, you also get as a result a spare Gunner.
This is one I am in the process of painting up.
I am going to use it on either a Trukk or my Squiggoth.
It is a pity that the rules/codex don’t allow you to use more twin-linked Big Shootas.
Feral Ork Infantry
Here are my Feral Ork infantry stands.
They have been undercoated black, though I think I should have added some sand or flock to their bases before giving them an undercoat.
Note that they are on Warmaster bases, 40mm x 20mm rather than the Epic 40000 40mm x 10mm bases which are usually the standard sized base.
Ork Landa
Here is a work in progress of my Ork Landa.
This is an all new model from GW and I did think the quality of the casting was rather sub-standard and the fit of the pieces poor.
I had to fill in quite a few gaps with green stuff, though the top fitted better than the underneath.
Epic Ork Bommerz
Having undercoated the Ork Bommerz with white paint, the next stage is to paint the metal bitz with black paint.
Grot Cutta
I have drybrushed by Grtot Cutta, first with a heavy drubrush of Tin Bitz, followed by a lighter drybrush of Boltgun Metal.
I will then be painting the mast and boom a dark brown.
As you will notice this model is “different” to the standard Grot Cutta in that the rear wheels are the Heavy Gunz style wheels rather than the tyres which came with the model.
I have noted that this model sells quite well on eBay, as do the other models from the Gorkamorka range. I would still like to try and get a Grot Lugga as I quite like that model.
