Rank & File month #1
Here's a photo of the pic from the sourcebook WAAARGH ORKS. It's one of my favourites, and throughout this month I've been flitting between army list and army list, and even thinking of switching to fielding Blood Axes in order to paint a regiment of Necromunda Goliaths to wield as mercs.... Needless to say, I've been incredibly un-orky and stuck to Da Plan!
Anyhow.
First things first - here's a piccy of all the models unpainted on the 1st of Jan, the newspaper as a timestamp. Rulez is rulez!
"Orkses is never defeated in battle. If we win we win, if we die we die so it don't count as defeat. If we runs for it we don't die neither, so we can always cum back for anuvver go, see!"
Commonly held Ork view of warfare.
All armies need bodies to feed into the grinder of war.
This month sees Da Boyz being painted up, although they are waiting for their mates who have a bigger guns - they should turn up sometime next month.
In the meantime The Boys have managed to get the grots to wheel out a bigger gun to pull the enemy into their fire, as well as rounding up a few tasty snacks! Warring at their leisure 💪
And without further ado - some boys and a nob:
All da boys love a... Big Gun.
Which is crewed by two cravenly grots!
Ahh! Wook at dat wittle face! I'm very pleased with how the paint fell on him :) Please ignore that mould line - I know I can't see it from a foot or two away...
And where there are orky machines, you'll find a MEKANIAK tinkering away (and incidentally, I have always read that as mekanik, rather than what I presume the correct pronunciation to be, which would be similar to maniac. It's only taken 30 odd years to realise...)
And what's a mob wivowt some tasty squigs eh?
This squig is fast becoming my favourite sculpt
This squig I think I may repaint at some point, but for now his warning stripes stand
The Runtherd send his squig hound to round up those two squigs. He'll be along later as part of The Warlord's Retinue
That's it for the first month of my OWAC Bad Moons. See you next month for some 'eavy weaponry - and a group shot of the ladz!
