Using a Warhammer Fantasy Battle Lizardman Terradon I am going to convert it into an Epic Armageddon Feral Ork Heavy Bomber.
The basic concept will have a howdah on top and bombs and stuff attached to the wings.

Epic Ork Bommerz
Made quite a bit of progress on these lovely models… Well after doing the metal parts I have spent a bit of time on my Forgeworld Ork Bommerz.
The first thing I did was to do the bases, which starts of as a simple flying base, I stuck a small rock and GW’s sand mix, before painting Bestial Brown and drybrushing with Bleached Bone.
I wanted to go for the orange/brown look of the FW 40K model.
Though I don’t think I will go for the checks or the flame effects which I think wouldn’t work in this scale (painted by me they wouldn’t).
I first painted the underneath in Vomit Brown.
This meant that I could avoid getting paint on the black metal work.
After painting the complete model in Vomit Brown, I painted the bomb loads in Bestial Brown after thinking that black would be too harsh. I then gave the model a wash. In the following picture the washed model is still wet!
Once the model was completely painted in Vomit Brown I then washed the model with a wash of Chestnut Ink, Scorched Brown and water.
As you can see one model is darker than the other, but I don’t think Orks are that uniform.
I still need to do add some more detailing.
The detail on these models is amazing.
Ork Airfield Defence Vehicles
I am starting some new Ork Airfield Defence Vehicles.
They are based on the Epic40K Ork Flakwagons.
One them will be a fuel bowser.
Forgeworld Epic Squiggoth
Here is a work in progress photo of my Forgeworld Epic Squiggoth.
Still quite a way to go.
Landa coming in…
I have worked some more on my Landa.
First I added a base coat of Desert Yellow.
I then painted various panels different shades of brown, light and dark.
I then gave it a light wash of watered down Chestnut Ink with some Bestial Brown in.
As you can see I still have a few white holes in the “rivets” where both the original base coat and wash failed to penetrate.
The next stage is to drybrush out the gloss of the ink wash and fill in those holes.
Ork Landa
I have made a little bit of progress with my Landa.
I have blacked out all the metal parts and then drybrushed with Tin Bitz.
In this close-up shot you can see the detail in the sculpturing, though some of those *rivets* would be a few feet wide!
Having drybrushed with Tin Bitz, a light drybrush of Boltgun Metal to bring out the metal parts.
Another view.
The next stage is to paint it in Desert Yellow.
Epic Trukks and Gargant
Here is a shot of the completed forces so far.
Still have a way to go. You will notice the Gunwagons and support vehicles mixed amongst the Feral Ork Junkatrukks.
Ork Airfield Defence Force* airfield vehicles
I have finished two of my Ork Airfield Defence Force* airfield vehicles.
They have been painted in oranges and browns, and then washed in an ink, paint water mix.
Detailing was then added.
* I know a more Orkish name would be more in keeping with the fluff…
Empire Characters
I have been working on some Empire characters for Warmaster.
I keep leaving them and coming back to them.
Finished the bases though.
Ork Standard Bearer
Added some more detail to my Feral Ork Standard Bearer.
Not much real progress there.
