So resulting in a 8 months project. So from november to february there would be more time to do some gubbins. As usually i got overboard again. You will see here.

Da Boss Gaz
So this is my Boss Gaz. What a marvelous scuplt and paintjob (obvious with new camera)
A break, so my mates could catch up
I painted the first ones quite fast and thought i should slow down. So i painted some more terrain. This time from GW Mek store set and i used a quick paint guide. I also wanted to see if i could implete this techniques into my vehicles.
Works quite nice. Maybe not so fast, as the stream may imply. And some things i changed a bit, because this is just not the way i would do this. But the result is quite nice.
A mob to die for - for a least the first 50 teefs
And then was february. I was allowed to start on my first 50 teefs of the mob. See first entry for what to come. Assembly was not so hard:
The ketta is from Kromlech, The spanna boy and boss are from GWs old gorkamorka range. Some head swaps from Kromlech and Spellcrow. My mob theme will we punks or punky orks. No future for us 😉 Connecting colour in the mob will be yellow. Especially yellow pants.
A fort to die for part 2 - a continuation
People noticed the fort looked too new and unused. Yeah they were right. Again i used much agrax earthshade wash and then i drybrushed the whole with a mix of white + sahara brown. This gave the fort the finish it needed.
Still not february i had some more time to finish some ork buildings:
Ork Tower:
Those are already washed, but still need the drybrushing.
But then february was there and i was allowed to start on the first 50 teefs of orks. ‘ere we go!
A fort to die for
One of the things i ordered from Kromlech Scenery was the orkenburg fort, which i insanly wanted to upgrade with rivet and nuts heads. These i made with a green stuff world set.
Painting those took some serious time of the chart. I started with a basecoat of black and used DIY paints for walls or wallpaper from the hard ware store. First was a layer of mixed grey blue. And then i drybrushed those with light gray, which i added later some more white to. This was the basis for the detail work:
The details took more time than the drybrushing, but is totally worth. Btw. i added some supermagnets inside of the seperate parts so the fort dont falls appart easily. The first part i added the details was the gate:
Then i added details to the corner pieces:
From november to february is a long time.
For the waiting time i had to fill something in.
On the last black friday i orderd some orcs, gubbins and buildings.
I really like the kromlech scenery range. So i wanted to start on these, because orcs were forbidden. But delivery time took some time.. much time 😉 So i started on other things first, which already layed around. Had some Micro Art Studio Scrapyard hardfoam hills, which i did first:
Used a army green spray coat as basis and added then some real metal corrosion paint. The earth parts were painted with a drab earth paint. After this some more weathering with more rust effect paints and what i had in my bins. Almost used all of them somewhere. Added some different coloured parts to break the green. Then some drybrushuing and much agrax earthshade wash. Really like the result.
For the next i painted some scatter terrain which layed around for a very long time. Kraken mats Apo-scatter terrain:
Did those mostly the same way, but with a wider paint range.
And then i was lucky to find a fairly priced mint old buggy box.
