Orks Warbiker

40k orks warbiker



My Deathskulls army usually traveled on foot, but I've finally added some Warbikes too my mob.


I think I've discovered a recipe for Ork skin that I love. It's Vallejo Russian Uniform, Ammo Moss Green, and Vallejo Golden Olive. Despite being from different paint lines, they blend so naturally together. I also started shading with Skeleton Hoard from Citadel Contrast and Citadel's purple ink (whatever stupid name they call it...) The purple shade make green skin seem more lifelike, like how veins look blue on fair skin tones.

I've felt like I'm in the zone on the past few models I've painted and I'm making leaps in the quality of my work. I just want to keep painting!

2024 ITC Rankings

Judging by my win-loss record, I've had a terrible year playing Warhammer 40k. Needless to say, I'm flabbergasted at the final rankings of the 2024 ITC season. What?!? I placed in the bottom 10% at the LVO; I placed even worse than players who dropped out after 3 games, so I'm not sure how those points and placings are tabulated, nor how season points are calculated but I'm in the 2,000s for the USA rankings? One bonus though, I'm the top "Dusty" in the world.

Las Vegas Open Results

I had a blast in the Warhammer 40k Champs at the Las Vegas Open. I went with my buddy, Kyle and slugged it out for 3 days of gaming, big crowds, and casino food. Here are a few pics from the event. I only went 1-5 in the Champs and 1-1 in the Sunday RTT but it was still a great weekend of playing games. Two of my losses were a combined 5 points and I felt so close to having a .500 weekend.  Pro tip: Thunder wolf cavalry are tough to play in GW/WTC/Frontline terrain maps. You end up bottlenecked in your own table half. I was my own wolf jail... I'm a little embarrassed by my score, but I learned quite a bit and I think I'm going to focus on my silver Space Marines or Orks for the next year.  #Warhammer40k #lvo2025 #spacewolves40k
