I've come into possession of a "Prophecy of the Wolf" box and will be tracking that progress (and any future Ork related projects) here.

 

The idea of Orkamania started with the Black Reach(?) box. I painted up the warboss and a few nobz as well as the copters in a red and yellow scheme as a test. Then I left the models with the wrong person and they're gone now.

So the new idea is to paint Gahzgul as himself and the rest in Orkamania reds and yellows (or maybe pink and gold).

There's even a storyline in my head that I'll display and flesh out a bit over time.

Wow this sounds like a Cool and Crazy good idea, I'd love to see red and yellow together (always liked that colour combo)… and even better on Orks!!

sorry to hear about losing your first army to "The Warp" 

 

Good luck with your army !!

First WIP:

Ghazghkull

@Mithril: Thanks, those things happen though. A buddy left his old demons (5th ed Slaanesh/Khorne) with the same person at the same time and met with the same results. But hey that's life sometimes. Just pick up and start again.

Great Start, it's looking a bit...Ronald Morkdonald with the bright red and yellow, are you planning to weather them models up?

[Wulf Vengis]

Oh yes. Very much so. This is just laying the colorized base level.

 

EDIT: Although... A Ronald Morka-Donald army could be amazing... A 40k Grimus could be terrifying.

 

EDIT 2: Oo, they're competition would be Gorka King who sells the Waaghpper!.

The world of Food-Courtia is dominated by different groups of fast food slinging Ork factions.

 

The "Squigg Lands" has MorkDonalds, Gorka King, Morkdy's and Gorkby's. Each offering a delicious variety of Squigg based "meat" burgers and sandwiches.

 

The "Fishy Seas" are primarily dominated by Long Jon Silvuh's and Red Lobstrosity (dad-a-chak). Serving up all manner of deep sea nasties.

 

The "Tortilla Plains" are rife with roaming bands of Tac-ork Truks but in the distance the Tac-ork Bell tolls, and beyond that the looming frame of the Mighty Tac-ork Stompa who's crackling sound system blares out a partially melodic tone of "MIGHTY TAC-ORK" feedback squealing echoing.

 

And of course who could forget Squigg-fil-a and GFS (Gorka Fried Squigg), who despite being smaller in number have managed to establish a hold in each of the other territories.

I had considered entertaining the idea that i might stick an Imperial Fist logo (maybe a partial or even orkified version) on the yellow somewhere. Kind of a reminder of where he got his yellow duds from.

NOTE: I'm working on the Imbed Image thing. I'm on mobile so there's no simple img tag button and i don't remember the tag code.

My intent is to just paint this guy in order of construction.

I've been doing it recently with my other builds and though it's not always as fun and you don't really see the final results until the absolute finish, its still really easy.

Morkdonalds etc is an hilarious idea. Are you going to convert some morbidly obese Nobs?!

[Wulf Vengis]

Not on this project unless some drastic event occurs before i go any further. But i have a future project in mind now.

However feel free to steal a thing or two. I don't care.

CAN we make this a painting challenge?

 

Like say, pick your favorite pro wrestler/tag team/faction and paint/convert up a character(s).

 

With each painting update posters must cut a vicious promo against they're opponents. (Possibly judged by an outside board of voters.)

 

In the end we'll have a no holds barred battle royale RP (with simple rules) to decide "Da 'eavywayt Waaagh! Champ". (Preferably with a special guest referee. (All this with mod permissions hopefully.)

 

This whole thing could end with a signature icon thing and/or an actual green stuff belt for the winner.

 

Who out there feels the mania comin on?

[The_Chaplain]

I feel like itd get a larger turnout if it was just a character conversion challenge and wasnt wholly limited to wrestling-- but maybe pop culture influences for conversions could get special awards?

 

If you pm grotsmasha hed probably find anway to include it in the 12 months of hobby as well (since a lot of people like doubbling up on events)

[Wulf Vengis]

Heck ya. Anything to keep spirits high, motivations running and Orks crumpin'.

[Wulf Vengis]

Done!

I'll allow it- now let's get it on!

 

Ive got a great idea for this challenge if it pans out.

 

Also, i cant stop laughing at the idea of makari bouncing on a wrestling ring turnbuckle waiting to get tagged in by ghaz like he is in fact the powerhouse of that duo

Edited July 18, 2020 by The_Chaplain

I've made the pitch to Grotsmasha. I'll inform you of more on that front as i can (unless someone bigger does).

"Oi! Hulksta! We got us a couple 'o roight rowlliez ere! Whut ya figgerin' we oughta do wit 'em?"

"TOON'EM UP BRUTHA! We need'em fahst an' loud! Cuz we're comin 'ard an' in charge brutha! Da red! Da yellow! Streakin' cross da battowfeewd! Dey're eyes are gonna bleed when dey see us brutha! Git'em ready brutha cuz da red an' yellow are gonna run wild!"
