YoungWolf7's Meanderings - Ork Charity Army and Necrons

[YoungWolf7]

That's the goal! Since the Star Phantoms have 3 Devastator squads vs. the standard 2 that will be 110 marines plus support vehicles...

 

If anyone is interested in the files I'm using PM me and I can give you links to where they are available on Cults3D.

And now, for something completely different...

 

I recently participated in a painting contest sponsored by Dark Gods 3D on their Discord/Instagram. The contest ran from Oct. 1 to Nov. 15. (Still awaiting judging results.) I also double-sipped and pledged to the Join the Waaaaaagh! Orktoberfest 2021 challenge. Here are the results:

 

Final submission pictures. Made it with 1.5 hours to spare!

 

 

For reference, that is a 160mm round base! Here's the shot of him printed with a standard boy (32mm base) for scale.

I've volunteered to help assemble and paint an Ork army aimed at being added to the Nova Charity Auctions for 2022. This is being headed up and managed over on Bartertown. If you're interested in helping out, please give us a shout there: http://www.bartertown.com/trading/viewtopic.php?f=110&t=337503

 

Here's my starting point for a 30 man mob of Bad Moon Boyz:

Here's the first batch of 7 Boyz for my completion this month. (Bases are left black as the organizer of the charity army will be doing all of the basing to keep the army consistent.):

I usually paint in batches of 5, but I kept going with the original 2 test models to make them match the rest. Next batch is primed and ready for paint!

Here's the first batch of 12 Boyz done. Just the Nob remains.

 

 

Closeups of the Boyz:

The Nob for the first Trukk Boyz squad is complete, so that finishes the first squad for this charity army.

 

 

 

 

For more information on this charity army to be auctioned at Nova Open 2022 (we hope!) please visit Bartertown.

Finally overcame my painting related burnout and finished the Warboss I'm contributing to the charity army project. I did some basic work on the base as he's standing on the tactical metal plate and his pose is a bit awkward without it.

That looks great! I love a well weathered, grungy ork in mega armor.

I've been working through the Imperium magazine with my grandson. He loves both the SMs and the Necrons. So I guess I get to paint both of them for him.

Those look great - I particularly like the subtle weathering and light effects.
