Blog Warden's Other Paint Log

Small progress on my next Ork Weirdboy/Stormboy nob:

 

Progress on the next two zeppelins continues!



Just ran out of my red gore paint (now wazdakka red) so I am paused until I get some more

 

Damn, those zeppelins turned out great! True orkingenuity!

 

Thanks!

Progress is slow but steady. Most of the basecoating is done, so I am on to the details:

Spoiler: ork heraldry inspiration

Found both of these on the internet, they are what I am aiming for:

 

Awesome, great deal on the way there. I love the moon
Great work overall.

This thread makes me love the 40k greenskins never thought it was possible

Grrr, Imrahil

 

Orks do have that effect on people.

Loving the Evil Sun as well, just finished painting up the main emblem on the zeppelin side:

 

Very cool @Warden ! Nothing like a good old blimp on the Warhammer battlefield. They look great. I hope to make one some day!

 

Have not had much time to paint recently, so I finished these two orc savage boyz just for fun:

Spoiler: moar piks

Very lovely, with a Touch of Comedy

Grrr, Imrahil

 

Little random, but I finished painting a small smattering of yellow barrels a few days ago:



THESE ARE MY BARRELS! THERE ARE MANY LIKE THEM BUT THESE YELLOW ONES ARE MINE!

 

The 24-hr Paint Challenge I did yesterday is now complete, and I have a batch of new progress to share:



Moar pics incoming, but for now here is my newly extended collection of barrels and crates

 

Now for some Ork Zeppelin pictures!

Behold, the Orkron and the Morkon (named for the real-world USS Akron and USS Macon, which both met their demise similiar to that of the Hindenburg):



The Orkron:



And the Morkon:



...or was it the Gorkon? The orks haven't sorted out that argument yet, and are working out their difference mid-flight



Morkon's gondola and crew:





Both of these two have rattler-cannons made from plastic hobby pipes.

Here is detail of the Orkron's heraldry:

A few moar piks:



All three zeppelins together!

The original Hindenbork zeppelin:

 

Also completed during the 24-hr paint challenge were my Savage Ork burna boyz and a new flying weirdboy:







The nob running with a torch (leftover Lizardmen terradon bit):



Burnas and Zeppelins!



And here is the weirdboy, who could also double as a stormboy nob (and maybe a stormboy warboss someday if the rules ever change?)



Back view:



Here are both my weirdboyz:

 

So much creativity and humorous creations.

I love it

Grrr, Imrahil

 

Had some fun taking army photos for the Luftwaaaagh!

Spoiler

 

...and one final picture that did not fit the ten-pic post limit from the last one... all the flying machines of the Luftwaaaagh together in one shot!




Also went through and updated my thread index to include the orky zeppelins and new infantry I have been working on

 

Starting my admech force (forgeworld Ryza), here are the infiltrators I painted during my 24-hr challenge:

Spoiler

I am enjoying painting the orange so far.



Most of the army is going to be magnetized, except for the basic infantry.

 

First group of skitarii rangers are done (except for the backpacks):

Spoiler

These guys were also fun to paint, and for some reason even easier than the orks!

 

Wel done with these as well. I love the high contrast between the Orange cloaks and the blue- turqouis bases

Grrr, Imrahil
