Kierdale Posted May 15, 2021 Author Share Posted May 15, 2021 “Look into my eyes - you will see What you mean to me. Search your heart, search your soul And when you find me there you'll search for WAAAAARGHHH!” I got Hedkrakka and his madmob today and had some bitz converted ready. Actually not sure what to do with the ‘Wolverine’ one. As for Hedkrakka himself, I’ll probably do him as a weirdboy.

Holier Than Thou Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 I’ll be honest, I wasn’t a huge fan of the Necron legs on the Shokk Attakk Gun but that bow is inspired. Bravo Sir/Ma’am. Kierdale 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted May 15, 2021 Author Share Posted May 15, 2021 Thanks, and I appreciate the feedback. I want to keep the legs on the Shokk Attack Gun, but was considering changing one or two of the feet to beads, to be painted up as typical SAG ‘power balls’. I’d like to keep one foot :D Do you think it would look better with two balls? Holier Than Thou 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithrilForge Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 ...Two balls... .... love the work on the new Mob, the bow is impressive...even if it's only 2 feet long want to see how you add to that destroyed necron "Club" ...

I’d like to keep one foot :D Do you think it would look better with two balls? You’re welcome. Yeah, it’s nothing personal, the SAG just reminds me of a piece of art, I think it’s called a triskelion, three legs joined together, I’ve always found a bit weird and unsettling. Haha Yeah, I think 2 balls would be better but that’s just me and I think the overwhelming consensus is it looks great as it is so you should stick with the way it is.

Kierdale Posted May 16, 2021 Author Share Posted May 16, 2021 Thanks! I’ll stick with the feet for now :D When I get around to finishing that model I’ll think about it again. I turned Hedkrakka into a weirdboy. Savage Orruk head, beard from a Gor’s ponytail. The original mask I used as a new staff top. I’m saving the claws-one for the future.

MithrilForge Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Oh wow, that head with the beard has sooo much character...sorry but I'm getting some beard squigs of my own now (awesome look, why didn't i think of squig beards for orks ) Heddkrakka the "weirdboy" is my favourite conversion of yours so far... so simple(relatively speaking) yet so much more he kinda looks like a Mongol Ork from the steppes Cheers, Mithril Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted May 17, 2021 Author Share Posted May 17, 2021 Thanks! I remembered something in the old fluff books about weirdboyz often having beards so wanted to give him one.

Evil Eye Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Oh MAN that's awesome! There's something magical about "banner disrespect", and you did a great job painting it! Kierdale 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted May 18, 2021 Author Share Posted May 18, 2021 Thank you both! :D The bowleburna had a SW flag being used as tarp, the doc was using a White Scar flag as a sheet...yes I love a bit of banner disrespect! Plus it’s good freehand practice. I was proud to get the three orks on the HobbyRoundup last night and make Wade and Peachy laugh a fair bit :D I’ve now finished the one with the Necron flail, and am working on the other two. I hope to finish them this week :tu: MithrilForge and andes 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kierdale Posted May 20, 2021 Author Share Posted May 20, 2021 Thanks! :) Here’s today’s WIP: I can’t decide what colour to do the kroot head on top of the archer’s head. As I understand it they are usually of a similar skintone to my Orks, but I want something different. Maybe I should ask the Tau forum!

Ammonius Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Maybe go for a greyer/browner kroot green to represent a kind of "dried over a smoky fire" type of shrunken head aesthetic? Kierdale and MithrilForge 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted May 20, 2021 Author Share Posted May 20, 2021 Oooh! That I like! Thanks, Ammonius. Shrunken head it is! :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithrilForge Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 I've seen steel legion drab used before with Kroot heads to good effect and some blacky/brown quills... and yes Ammonius's idea is great Paint work looking great there... did that bow ever belong to Legolas ... oh bad joke...

Kierdale Posted May 25, 2021 Author Share Posted May 25, 2021 Magos, that’s as bad as Mithril! Snake? Snake!? SNAAAAAAAKE!!!! I finished Hedkrakka-as-Snakebite-weirdboy: A bit of freehand on the loincloth. [/img] And what was his mask, as his staff top. I did the rod of his staff as copper rather than wood, too, as traditionally weirdboyz had copper staffs to drain off Waaargh energy when it got too much for them. I’m now making a pair of minderz for him. :) MithrilForge, Dumah, Holier Than Thou and 3 others 6 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kierdale Posted May 25, 2021 Author Share Posted May 25, 2021 Thank you so much :) The freehand is just a matter of patience, thinned paint, and a Winsor-and-Newton-series-7 ;) And here’s the archer: So here’s the three. And I got the weirdboy on Warhammer Twitch last night :tu: Dumah and MithrilForge 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
