I had been thinking about getting the Mekyboy Workshop kit for a while. So on a shopping trip to my local games shop I decided to make an impulse purchase and buy the box. Well it was nearly 30% cheaper than on the GW site.
Having cleaned the plastic parts I gave them a Corax White undercoat. I then started painting the basecoat across the scrap piles and barricades using a combination of Base and Contrast Citadel paints. I continued to paint the different barricades, using, as before, Base and Contrast paints.
I used some Citadel Cygor Brown Contrast paint on the barricades.
I think it may have been a little too dark for the effect I was trying to achieve.
I think I might do some drybrushing with Gorthor Brown to brighten it up a bit.

I then did some additional shading using Citadel Nuln Oil Shade.

All Mekboyz can perform battlefield repairs using no more than a weighty wrench-hammer, a sack of nails and a healthy dose of gumption, but most do their best work in the comfortably anarchic surrounds of their own workshop. Meks are more than capable of cobbling together a workspace from whatever is lying about, with rudimentary workshops springing up from battlefield wreckage even while the bullets are still flying. Greenskin vehicles roar toward such teetering structures, their crews throwing sacks of teef at the resident Mek – he and his crew get to work immediately, sending the Ork customers on their way with snazzier guns, souped-up engines and extra armour plates.

This workshop is the main model from the Ork Mekboy Workshop boxed set. It is the only part of the kit that actually needs to be constructed, the barricades and scrap piles are single piece models.
I really should read my own workbench feature as I didn’t undercoat the model in the way that I was planning to do. So the crane was going to have a white undercoat, whilst the workshop wall was going to have a Leadebelcher undercoat. In the end I did this the other way around.
So I gave the model an undercoat, some parts were done with Corax White and other parts with Leadbelcher.
My reasoning behind the undercoating was that the metal parts I would use Leadbelcher and then shade and wash the parts to give a dirty metal look to them. With the white undercoated pieces I will probably use a contrast paint as a basecoat, before then washing and highlighting.

I have been thinking about getting this kit for a while now. So on a recent shopping trip to my local games shop I decided to make an impulse purchase and buy the box. Well it was nearly 30% cheaper than on the GW site (and it’s out of stock on their website).
As well as the named workshop you also get three barricades and three piles of scrap. Before starting on the workshop part of the kit I decided I would paint the scrap piles and barricades. Having cleaned the plastic parts I gave them a Corax White undercoat.
I then started painting the basecoat across the scrap piles and barricades using a combination of Base and Contrast Citadel paints.
With this large barricade, the bit of Dakkajet was painted red, whilst the bonnet was painted yellow. Other parts were painted with Leadbelcher.
For this barricade I painted a key part of it with Leadbelcher and Contrast Cygor Brown.
I wasn’t too impressed with the Cygor Brown, it covered well, but there wasn’t too much contrast.
On this scrap pile I painted the Imperial ammo chest and the dented oil drum with Contrast Militarum Green and the tyres I did with Contrast Basilicanum Grey.
The majority of this scrap pile was painted with Leadbelcher and some parts were done with Contrast Cygor Brown.
The tyre I did with Contrast Basilicanum Grey, and as this barricade appears to have figher parts I did these parts with Base Averland Sunset.
On the largest piece of scrap I did the pile of tyres with Contrast Basilicanum Grey, whilst the chest was done with Contrast Militarum Green.
Contrast Cygor Brown was used for some parts of the pile.

I think what I really like about this model and I am looking forward to painting is the wall of tools.
The parts on the plastic sprues within the box are quite thick and chunky.
They were in some places quite tricky to remove from the sprues.
