Aright, I thought I'd start off with showing you guys something that I've almost completed, I'll post my earlier wip pics aswell though If anyone wants me to.

It might not appear like it at a first glance, but it does have a frontal assault ramp ;)

So, this is as far as I've gotten on my skullhamma:











Almost rotates 360 degrees..















C&C welcome


Tepok

Now thats a skullhamma!

Fantastic looking build there Tepok, definatly worth looting.
Any chance of a shot of the assault ramp open?

Looks good, the grot is the best part so far, tho the whole thing needs more grots.

Awesome work mate. Thats a lot of plasticard scoring and Orkyfying! I take my hat off to you.

So cool! Make me one! :D

Is there anything left of the baneblade! :rolleyes:

Great work, and I agree, lets see the ramp!

Probably the best grot ever implemented on a tank!
I love this!
Brilliant plasticard work- what thickness is it on the main structural work? Also, what is the greyish material on the sides that has the grating on it? :)

Very awesome that is there, you gotta love that grot.

all of it is bloody awesome, how log did it take you to get to that stage.

Really good. I like the way you used a Night Goblin with an archer's arm for the grot, he really has 'character'.

A really good Skullhamma.

For da orkses!

MM

I dont think the ramp actually opens, the skull and gob on the front count as it tho.

@Some Guy: The grey stuff is just tread plate from barrule, I have a few sheets of that, its just the same as plasticard but not white.

Thanks guys, I've done a bit more work so far, more pics later today, as for the assault ramp, Tinners is right, it doesnt move, I guess it could if I had used actual hinges, but I didnt.


Tepok

Sorry for the double post.. but..

I think... it's done... althought any C&C is still apreciated and needed, as I wont undercoat it for another couple of days....

Pics: (they are once again very dark... Ill try to get better ones soon...)



Barrel walls are thicker:




Stick bombs, to hit skumgrods with and to use as flares in case the spot light breaks..






The back:








C&C welcome


Tepok

That is one impressive baneblade. How big is it compared to 'standard' baneblades by now?

MM

that skullhamma is superb matem what did you use for the cannon?

Very impressive. Really lovely. Looking forward to seeing it all painted up.

@ MM : it's just as big as a normal BB
@ Eidolon : Just normal plumping pipe from Focus

Update,

I'm going to add a washer later on, but I first wanna see how the barrel looks like fully painted, anyway, I've finished the metal apart from rust:

















C&C welcome



Tepok

That is so cool, makes me wana get one myself.

It still looks great Tepok. I am eager to see more painting updates though.

-scrubout

Snap - someone found a use for those little egg things those crap toys come in!?..am i right?! lol

awesome work bud.

SC

Brilliant, best Orkyfikashun of the Baneblade that I've seen! Can't wait to see it painted, don't forget the graffiti and weathering!

Cool conversion, very Ork like.

Nice work, looking forward to more of it.

That is AWSOME!!!!!! Very good conversion with lots of orky riveted plates. I particularly like the "fuel" containers. If I can achieve something even close on my ork flyer, I'll be a happy bunny!

Now get painting! ;)

Thanks guys :D

I've already posted these pics on the waaagh, but thought I'd add them to this thread.
Well, I was taking part in the Waaagh's Sekret Santa 'competition' , and christmas came early this year! A lovely gift from spain, by PeaceCraft, 4 Burna Boyz and a Big Mek, I've since added another boy and an oil squig.




Even got a nice shiny letter with cool art work! :



And now... 22 pictures!!!

This guy is just awesome... I love everything about him... :










Boyz: These guys are great, awesome GS work, and even cooler scratch built flamers.. and StahlHelme... :) I'm gonna add some more rivits to the fuel tanks, they dont seem to have enuff fer my tastes.

Boy #1







Oil Squig I made (attack squig):


Boy #2





Boy #3







more in next post...


Tepok

Boy #4









Boy #5










I love all 5 of these, particulary boy #5 and the big mek, who's banner and weapon choice are close to orgasmic..

But, can you spot which one mine is? :?

oh, and I think I'll get more of the skullhamma done tonight :)


Tepok

Awesome, awesome, models of awesome modelness! :blink:

You, Tepok, are a lucky greenskin. :)

Got all of them apart from the Big Mek painted... :)



















I assure you, that spot of weedy yellow is gone now, I missed it when I was cleaning the model up...










Boy #4 got some work done last night, the Squigar as I said... and open fuel tanks...







C&C welcome


Tepok

A paint job befitting them!

Yet again, well done Tepok. You are a legend in the red eyes of Mork 'n' Gork. Yep. Legend.

Ragnarork will come, and Tepok will be there to lead it ... :blink: (is that just fantasy, or not?)

MM :)

Loving the rolled up sleeves look I must say lol.

They mean business, smart casual business :)

SC

Cheers guys,

@MM - yer that's just WHFB, and ya forgot Bork, no matter how debatable his existence is ;)


@SC - And extreme german effiency.... if orks can be efficient...


Got a wee bit done on the skullhamma over the last two days, and just realised I hadn't taken any pics yet, I'll do about 20 min more work on it tonight, so it'll change a bit:

I've got this side done:



Middle is getting there...:




This side hasn't had much done to it :


C&C welcome


Tepok

Its great to see a unique Orky Army, brilliant plasticard work!

Wow, those Orks are wicked, and good to see you still working on the BB (she's looking great!).

Could you get some close up/better pics of the Ork artwork, that stuff looks awesome too.

-scrubout

I love them boyz! Saw them on the-waagh but didn't realise it was you :) Are they flamers on the mek's arms, or shootas? They're just brilliant, love the painting too! Your Skullhamma is a complete beast. The scheme is perfect!

They just screem orc to me. Not because of the green color. And do you need an driver licence for that tank?(A cool idea, an orc swinging with his driver license).

Thanks guys, I've managed to get some kommandos done tonight
, these are the much favoured Barrel commandos that so many people have made but I couldn't resist joining the hordes of people who already have similary BArrel based kommandos..

Therefore, they're not very original..
Some barrels aren't drilled on the pics, but I've done that now, and I've given the nob a big ole silencer too.

Hoping to paint these this week, and get 5 more and 2 Burna ones finished some other time...


C&C welcome


Tepok

As always when I see these guys ... lol ...

I can assure you that any Imperial commander would be rather concerned at seeing these terrors, and go round the back for a rest [insert noise of tank revving here]. :D

They certainly capture the orky feel as well as your baneblade. :)

MM

PS> Good greenstuffing, it really adds to their character.

Heh, thanks m8, I'll get them painted as soon as possible, and as soon as I manage to get the 'oily' orange colour I've got planned right (for the barrels).


Tepok

I got some advice from Kornork & DocNuk over at the waaagh on how to paint the barrels, so far I've tried Kronork's idea, and it looks really cool imo:


pic of Ozkar with his kan:


I also got a new Nob for my sluggas finished, thought I'd show himaswel, Nobfug Shakslag!
THe banner pole really sucks, I know, so I'm repainting that as soon as I get time!










C&C welcome


Tepok

Great work here Tepok, I love the hat on the Nob, makes him look a bit like an Orky commissar!

The barrel Kommandos may have been done by others but that's probably because they look brilliant, it's that kind of humour in units that makes Orks awesome. B)

The Skullhamma looks great too, I've never been a big fan of the GW one but this one is cool, especially with the mahoosive gun!

Hehe, I got loads of those hats:








Tepok

Thats the best use for that shitty GD miniature i've seen, good job.

And the rest of the stuff is awesome too, very orky :D
