A whole LOTTA Orks. My partner said I’m “staying home too much” so made me buy a LOT to play with at the local shop.

 

It’s…

 

SQUIGS GONE WILD!

WILD! WILD! WILD!

(I’m going to make t-shirts, light heather pink, with deep red fuzzy 70s letters … any opponent shows me Squigs  they get a shirt)

The Cult of Squig Snagga Ladz – they wear the pelts of the Squigs on their heads as armour and a source of terror. they also have vaguely phallic pink mushrooms on their bases, lol

da Warboss, Smashgit, on foot; he sports a spare shoulder pad as a helmet, and has a shiny targeting squig

The Killa-Squig-Kans!
I used “loon boss on squig” from Sigmar, for the Squig faces, plus one from the 40k riders set, to create a living insane-o beast-machine  three, in fact  one has feet  – and a tail

Painting style: LFSENMM (lazy, fake, sky-earth, non-metallic metal). Zero “real metals” used

Mosty Vallejo paints; primers, model acrylics, air, with rust build by AK acetic. Lots of glazes using Vallejo glaze medium (tried Army Painter medium and GW (Lahmian?) which are similar, not what I wanted). Basing is Imperialis with Golden coarse pumice gel, and slime is Createx Wicked Colours (usually I use these for airbrushing goalie masks, etc). With Water Texture. Testors Dullcoat (the only rattle can I still use), the. Vallejo Gloss Varnish to bring up some areas.

I also use Army Painter Strong Tone and Military Shader washes along the way as needed.

Upcoming:

30x Grots “da bone’eadz” – skulls with ears added; they are utterly malevolent looking little gits (grots don’t WAAAGH!, they “wiiiigh!”)

3x Runtherds, heavily converted, skull helmets, arms, etc

Zodgrod – least favourite 3D jigsaw puzzle

Painboy

Painboss

Big Mek W Shokk Gun

Warboss on Squigasur

6x Squig Maniakd with 1x Boss

Warbikez (will be converted from Sigmar Ard Boy Boars)

Forgeworld Sqyiggoth / Battlewagon with Rolla and howda

Weird/wurrboy

Gunwagon made from Ash Wastes truck, Forgeworld Grot Kannon (think French CAESAR looking beast) with Klaws

Mek Workshop using that kit and Necromunda market stall

another unit of Snaggas

Nobz mob

thinking about how to make Rocketboys with wings/rockets

Jet maybe from dragon/Chaos/Jet kit

 

THEN: Horus Heresy, Sons of Horus (too much to list).
