Return of Da Krimson Krushers

[Wolf Lord Duregar]

Well, they exist in Mordheim, they have a Blood Bowl team and the Mordheim gang grew into a Warhammer Fantasy army - so time to return to da future..

 

I stripped and pillaged most of my Shadow War Armageddon Orks (built to look like Kommandos). Raided them for bitz for my Mordheim warband. But I kept the important bitz, so plan to rebuild da gitz now.

But i don´t plan to use them for 40k but possibly Shadow War Armageddon, maybe Necromunda but most certainly GorkaMorka! I plan to do two warbands so I can lend one to a friend and play one of GW´s best games ever again.

 

Da plan is to rebuild my old Kommandos, a third time (!) for one gang and then use those newer boyz for the second gang. I don´t need to do that many models. 1012 on foot should go along way. Then a trukk for each warband and maybe a little bikes for one and a buggy for the other.

Dat´s da plan now anyways..

 

I have two Nobz still intact - But they are really alternative versions of the same dude (I´ll fix some pics of them). And then i have a third unpainted but primed which is for the same mob.

And then I have these bitz..

 

Sp the first step is to build some cool ´eavy shootas/big shootas.. The second, stock one will be stripped of its scope (I three all painted bitz but the backpacks, as they are resin, in a bath of IPA) - and then rebuilt into a magazine fed ´eavy shoota for variation. SOmething along a Johnson LMG with that mag where the ejection port is.. (I guess the shells will be ejected to the left, into da gunner´s belly!)

 

Picked up a new box of the venerable boyz, today....

 

Of course they will all have beret and backpacks too,  The other mob, not so much..

And here are the surviving models, da Nob. I need to re-fresh my memory about GorkaMorka but i thinka  huge choppa is availble. A kustom shoota-skorcha, maybe not..?

 

The third, unpainted, has a ifferent head but i might track downa  spare of this one and make him yet another version of the same dude. He has a slugga and power klaw..

 

No huge backpack for this dude though.. But that´s okay - he is da boss, da ladz get to carry rations and ammo!

II´m bad at good pics.. But two eavy shoota/big shoota-gunners are put together.

 

For actual GorkaMorka-play they can be plain shootas..

 

Oh - and thta is why they are on small bases, might be able to fit into their trukk, maybe.. But atleast they have a chance now.

[Wolf Lord Duregar]

I need better lightning for pics.. But in the meantime. An assist gunner and another witha  big. Thing.. A shootier shoota wiv´ mroe dakk?  Or just a big shoota/´eavy shoota? Who knows! :D

 

Radioman up next..

[Wolf Lord Duregar]

Da rekruitin´ is in good progress.. Got bitz - well backpacks, for four more. Maybe five if I covert a rokkit launcher backpack a bit.  Ten is pretty good though! Even if three has ´eavy shootas/big shootas.. It is mainly a fun modelling project anyways..

I realized that the many Nobz-arms I have work wonders. Beefire, but I don´t mind that! Better used in pairs, which I did not sratr with, but I will probably do all the rest with those arms..

 

The first here does not have those. But he does have an upsized slugga or cut down shoota?

 

 

[Wolf Lord Duregar]

And the last two.. Nobz arms.. But the second got a weedier Nob-arm, I did not really look, I think it is from the Boyz box.. So it looks like he has watched alot of pr0n-Hab... Ah well. Not that noticeable among all the gear..

Good they have their back-packs as they have no trukk yet so there will be some tabbing after grav chute insertion....

 

 

[Wolf Lord Duregar]

Together with the support-gunnerz, I think this dude is my favourite. The pose and all..

 

Now, need to name them all and not just Rambork, Blain, Billy, Mac etc..

 

Will prime them this week and really want to start painting but have to finish off some Goblin Bruisers and.. maybe some ToW stuff... But this is a painting project that feels like the most fun in a while. Not just batch-painting to be able to play...

[MithrilForge]

Very Characterful , Nice looking kit bashes  Orks look great all done up with Gubbinz etc. 

Good to see you enjoying the building part (sometimes that's the best part ) 

look forward to seeing them painted.

 

Cheers, Mithril

Cheers buddy - thanks!

Yeah, lvoe modelling stuff like this. And this is the third Mob I do like this - the first being done late 3rd Ed or Early 4th Ed.. A little unsure..

 

Was about to prime them just now but remembered I had no texture paint on the bases so had to do that.. And then I saw a can of tamiya Olive Drab.. Might actually prime them with that..!

Not decided yet if I will paint them soon-ish.. But right now I feel like.

[Wolf Lord Duregar]

:cuss:ty pic but.. I primed them with a can of Tamiya Olive Drab and then touched them up with the airbrush, same colour but from jars.. Not sure where I´ll keep it.. If anywhere.. But will use some other greens and browns..
