Kit bashed Orc Tank.

Well after reading a blog post from Zrune Lord http://castrarunis.blogspot.com/ I decided to give it a go and created a tank thing for my self. This is a card stock hull, with odd bitz glued to it. Tank wheels are GW tanks wheels. Tread is PC flat cable. Big gun left over from another tank, all slapped together with supper clue.





The welds are 2 part epoxy putty (like green stuff) rolled out to a thin line. Placed over a joint
then I poke it with a pin, or pen on an angle to make the welds. 


Enjoy.

Space Orc army TOE.

I have been reviewing my Orc, and have decided on the TOE of the army. I have been going back and forth for years as to the make up of the army. I still love the old RT days of the GW Orcs and want to use the back story of those glory days for my Space Orc army.

Below are photos of my horde as it stands, with numbers next to the units. I will list out each unit in the photos. The photos are not that great, but you will get a feel for the over all size. Once I get the horde painted I will move to make more vehicles. I also want to add some more boys but that will be much later.
  1. Mega Armored Space Orcs 4 units of 5 (15mm UK space pirates)
  2. BA commandos 3 units of 8 (GZG mercs)
  3. Hard boys (OOP MJ minuatures)
  4. Bad Moon (OOP MJ)
  5. Snake bite H2H nobs (OOP MJ)
  6. Warboss and squad. (mix)
  7. Freebooters 2 units of 10 (OOP MJ)
  8. Snake bites 2 units of 10 (OOP MJ)
  9. dreadnoughts 8 (epic gargants)
  10. Bad Moon (OOP MJ)
  11. Death skulls 2 units of 10 (OOP MJ)
  12. Bad Moon (OOP MJ)
  13. Evil Suns 2 units of 10 (OOP MJ)
  14. Blood Ax Boys 4 units of 9 (15mm UK, and MJ hard boys)
  15. Bikes 22 bikes in all (OOP MJ)
  16. Bad ass beast kit bash (VOID lizard thing, old GW tank parts)

More 15mm Orcs painted this weekend.

This weekend I worked on finishing another squad of Orcs. Note: These minis are OOP and are no longer being sold. I Also removed the banners that were cast on them, and replaced with hand painted ones. I am not going to name the fractions, but you should be able to guess them. The top photos are just of the banners, and a boss with flags added. The photos below are of the 10 boy mob. Now I have counted up all of the MJ Orcs I have, and it turns out to be 110. I have 11 full mobs of 10 boys each. I still have more MJ Orcs just not boys.

Work Bench January post.

Hello World, it is I Noel here with another Blog post.......
Well it has been a while, and I have not had much me time to play, but I have squeezed some in or the past two weeks. I have been working on my 28mm Fantasy stuff for SBH, and here are 4 beast-men I have painted up. I ran out of my normal flesh colour paint and tried a new brand, of flesh. It is a not anything close to my old colour. I do like it for the beasts. You will see them side by side in the last two photos. As all ways click for a larger view. Now I know in the photos they look like I spent hours on them, but no! I have been loving the dip method, and the prof is in the minis. These are simple quick paint jobs, no shading or inks, some light dry brushing. I dipped them in polyshades, then sprayed with dull coat. Now the one on the right in the photo just below is one I painted a long time ago, and not part of this bunch of 4. I am very happy with them, and look forward to finishing the bases.
