These Ork Stormboyz were entered into the GamesDay 2009 Golden Demon awards.
Though they do look very nicely painted, the base in my opinion detracts from the miniatures. It’s too big and a little too busy, and the Orks blend too much into the base. Great for camouflage, but less useful for a painting competition where your miniatures do need to stand out more than normal.
Combine that with a busy cabinet and as a result you have some great looking models getting lost in the base and the cabinet.

How I painted these models.
Orks versus Imperial Guard in the ruins of an Imperial City.
The Ork Stormboyz have placed themselves in an Imperial ruin. Slightly at risk from the unexploded Grot Bomb that was launched and missed earlier in the game.
One of my Ork units I do like are my Stormboyz (even despite Simon calling them the Lipstick Boyz) however they are leaderless, until now!
Games Workshop do produce a Stormboyz Nob, however it is only available by mail order and not from their shops. So when I was up in Nottingham I did get the Stormboyz Nob when I visited Warhammer World. It is a nice model and will certainly give my Stormboyz mob a bit more punch.
Now I just need to start painting him to match my Stormboyz mob.

After accidentally dropping my Ork Stormboyz Nob I put him back together again.

Tomorrow (17th January) sees the release of new plastic Ork Stormboyz.
Stormboyz, the shock troops of many successful warbands, dedicate their lives to the time honoured martial disciplines of drilling, marching and hurtling through the air. To this end they go to war strapped to rokkit packs that, when activated propel their wearers forward on great tongues of oily black flame.
I do like the new models which seem very Orky. Not sure if I am going to get any as I already have a mob of the old sort.
