Magos Takatus Presents: Gortoof's Rekking Krew

[Magos Takatus]

Hi all! Yes, reports of my demise are sadly untrue and I'm making a comeback.

 

I recently had a game of 10th with my buddy Pan and he utterly avenged his Ultramarines by bringing out his Orks to fight me. Sadly I forgot to take any decent photos but he absolutely kicked my Teef in. It was a fun game, but at the start of the first turn I have caused -5 kills because I downed a single enemy Ork and one of my Killa Kans units cause 6 mortal wounds to itself with their special rule. A combination of good plays by my opponent, my poor rules comprehension, me allowing myself to get rusty while re-learning the game, and poor dice rolls led to me getting dominated, but it was an Ork on Ork game, we had fun, though my social battery was pretty low after the game ended. I think a shaky grasp of the rules stresses me out, so I need to improve.

 

I do have something for you fine Bosses though, I have finished my Artel W Pyromaniaks Skwad. These models are just as gorgeous as the Tankbusta equivalents, but they have a TF2 Pyro reference, so I arguably love them even more.

 

 

These make my Existing Burnas look a bit puny, especially as they are on dinky old bases and scrunched up postures but They are also a different painting style so they won't fit in great anyway. Good thing it's a rag-tag army, eh? I am particularly proud of the Ork that was my biggest foray into OSL yet. I love how he turned out, it wasn't as scary as I thought it would be, but it did require the ol' finkin' cap in places.

 

I'm not sure what my Next Ork project will be, probably more Stormboys or Kommandos but that will be a way off. I've got Kroot and my first army for sale to work on. (Mechanicum)

 

Have a good time and I hope you enjoyed my now additions.

Absolutely stellar work as always.

Thanks, you really put a smile on my face with that last post, Evil Eye.  Considering this was to be my low-effort side army project it's mutated into... not that. 

 

I don't think all of my Orks rolling forward will have this much effort put into them but I think over all they will be a bit better than my original models. At least until Ork Boy Mobs burn me out again.
