MithrilForge Posted July 26, 2020 Author Share Posted July 26, 2020 Great work, I like the basing! Thanks, the bases are really quick and easy to paint and give a decent enough look, it’s much quicker to get Averland down on a white undercoated base so 2 quick coats of it looks great!.

MithrilForge Posted July 27, 2020 Author Share Posted July 27, 2020 (edited) ok, i got the Deffkilla Wartrike together finally, was it just me or didi anyone else who's ever made one of these have a dickens of a time getting parts to fit I had to chop extra channels on some parts and widen spots, some parts had me even wonder if it was supposed to fit there !?, anyways its together and ready for paint, I added a 44 gallon drum to the front as a makeshift fender then added some spikes and pipes to make it look "Orky" ramshackle, I also gave the fuel grot, now known affectionately as "Jerry" a German helmet from an old half used Tamiya kit that was laying around collecting dust. Hopefully the weather is good enough tomorrow to permit some Undercoat to be sprayed "Jerry" the Fuel Grot Cheers, Mithril Edited February 27 by MithrilForge Smoke Frog and Bat33.1 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364987-mithril%E2%80%99s-ork-waaaaagh/page/2/#findComment-5572151 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Chaplain Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Yeah, parts of the wartrike kit were certainly fiddly. Loving the helmet on "Jerry" (love the pun btw) Would love to see an alternate angle for the front fender- can we get a side profile?

lhg033 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 inspiring work - I've lost motivation a bit at the moment but starting to feel the itch to grab a paint brush again seeing your work (I have to finish whats on my 'painting table' before I allow myself to build anything else e.g. the Nobz I have from PotW) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364987-mithril%E2%80%99s-ork-waaaaagh/page/2/#findComment-5573301 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithrilForge Posted July 29, 2020 Author Share Posted July 29, 2020 (edited) @ the chaplain - I will egt a better pic today and post it up for you @Ihg033 - thanks, I got inspired by all the cool orks here as well, warbringers, toaee, krakendoomcool, kierdale … and many more !! I've been working on the bases for the Scrap-jet & the Trike (need to finish them before I put paint on the trike) here's the WiP of the base - and with paint. yellow industrial metal will be on every base for this army. now I just have to finish the scrap-jet today and pin it to the base. cheers, Mithril Edited February 27 by MithrilForge Dosjetka and Smoke Frog 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364987-mithril%E2%80%99s-ork-waaaaagh/page/2/#findComment-5573593 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithrilForge Posted July 29, 2020 Author Share Posted July 29, 2020 (edited) Alright, as promised (to Myself) i pulled out the stops and Finished the ScrapJet and it's done and based, now this model is so cool and full of detail that I easily could have spent another 10 + hours painting details like extreme weathering and lots of highlights and colours with subtle shade changes...but that's not what this army is about...it's a speed painting Waaaagh !!! so it's tabletop ready and that's another unit done !, I'm feeling great about my level of quality Vs Speed and the fact I'm actually getting stuff finished. so here are some pics of my First Ork Vehicle for 2020 !! Well another unit down, if all goes to plan...its the Nobz Unit next, then the Warboss on Trike after that.

The Base was made with the old Imperial terrain floor tiles i had left over from making ruined buildings i just glued them to the base and put Agrellan badlands around them... hey presto Cheers, Mithril Smoke Frog 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364987-mithril%E2%80%99s-ork-waaaaagh/page/2/#findComment-5574370 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Looking great! The bases are phenomenal. Kinda funny, I picked up the kt Ork box to add to my gretchen box I bought just to be able to use in kill team. I love the grots! Keep it up, looking fantastic.

lhg033 Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 the scrapjet is fantastic - nice level of deathskulls stuff to show it has been 'borrowed' without going nuts and still plenty of red to make it go fasta! My only gripe, and I completely get why as you are speed painting, is that the black wheels look too clean against the base. That would be a slippery slope though to more and more weathering.

MithrilForge Posted August 16, 2020 Author Share Posted August 16, 2020 (edited) Thanks Warbringer, i'm sure you'll do em right Proppa Here's todays WiP , working on the Wartrike..gee there's heaps of detail, you could spend days and days on this.... but not when your on a Speed Paint Waaaaagh .… overall progress, trike nearly done and working on the Crew... Rear shot- (do these tires make my bum look big ???... ) And WiP on the driver (Frank ) * I tried, (note tried) to do senmm on his glasses like KrakendoomCool did on his burna bomma pilot (awesome work there btw) they are so damn small ...perhaps next time I try it ill look for bigger shades. anyway here's Frank - (I only just noticed that I've put a dot of white on his left Lense when I was painting the mask !) On a modelling sad note- when the family Cat jumped up on my hobby area we had a casualty of the Speed Paint Waaagh…. Jerry the Fuel Grot has gone MIA... I cannot find him anywhere....farewell Jerry....I place two fuel cans on the back of the trike in his honour... red and yellow were his favourite colours.... Anyway that's all for today, hopefully in a couple days i'll post the finshed Trike and get cracking on the Nobz….

MithrilForge Posted August 17, 2020 Author Share Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) Okay, more WiP... I finished the base this arvo and the Trike's done and Frank has been Glued in and the side Dakka as well (A note to anyone wanting to paint one of these up yourselves - I would never have been able to remotely paint it ok if I'd stuck all the parts on at the start and undercoated it ...) I just pinned the Trike to the base (that was fun ) Here's the base before the trike - I added some winter tufts and a Blood angels helm for some details And Frank on the Trike...waiting for Da Boss to get on.. hope to have Da boss done by tomorrow night for a fancy pic cheers, Mithril Edited February 27 by MithrilForge fixed broken emoji Dread and Smoke Frog 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364987-mithril%E2%80%99s-ork-waaaaagh/page/2/#findComment-5587049 Share on other sites More sharing options...
