Deathskulls Shoota Boy

Messy is not a player nor supporter of international football. He's just bad about pickuping after his pet squigs and lawn care but strangely obsessive about his facepaint. #Warhammer40k #waaagh #orks40k #deathskulls #armageddon40k 

Repainted Ork Boy

I painted over this lad's previous paint job - I don't think I lost too much detail. 

Paint Squig on Your Face

This lad found a rare white paint squig and promptly smeared his face in squig poo. (Paint squig poo is canon.) #Warhammer40k #waaagh #orks40k #deathskulls #armageddon40k 

Another Ork Boy

Hugo huffs and puffs and blows out the candles at children's birthday parties for giggles. I spend about the same amount of time on each of my ork boys, but I really like how this guy turned out.  #armageddon40k #waaagh #orks40k #deathskulls #waaagh 

Oy, dis is 'eavy!

This lad is too proud to admit that he found a choppa that's just a little heavy for him to lift. #orks40k #deathskulls #armageddon40k #waaagh #Warhammer40k 

See-Saw Cecil and his loud shoota

This is See-Saw Cecil, he sees the loot you're carrying but never saw who took it. #Warhammer40k #orks40k #deathskulls #armageddon40k #waaagh 

Orks eating well in 11th.

Starin' Spence always makes intense eye contact whilst eating. I've been on a bit of a hot streak with my Orks the past few games... And I  mean red hot. I'm running Green Tide with More Dakka as my detachments and Take and Hold as my disposition. In my past 3 games, I've won by the end of turn 2. Yesterday I took on my buddy Kyle's Tau and nearly had him off the table by turn 1.5 before we called it.  Green Tide gives me too many bodies that have a 5+ invuln and a 5+ FNP. Then Gaz has his way with what remains of your army after I cowabunga almost everything else forward. I mean, this is the way I've always wanted to play, but between the core ork boys, in an amazing detachment and brutal disposition, I'd have to face a similar army with flamers to counter me. Glory to da' ork supremacy!  #Warhammer40k #waaagh #orks40k #armageddon40k #new40k 

White Scars Infiltrator

I've been hithering and dithering about restarting my White Scars army and painted this Infiltrator to see if I can pull it off. With the new Armageddon box, I've got a lot of bare plastic that can be a great start to another Space Marine amy, however, I also want to start Crimson Fists, Celestial Lions, Mantis Warriors,  Minotaurs, or create about a dozen other homebrew chapters. I'm spoiled for choice. #Warhammer40k #whitescars40k #spacemarines40k #astartes #armageddon40k 

Ork Trukk Conversion

I finished this Ork Trukk kitbash just in time for the new trukk announcement. I wonder if my model will match the same dimensions? #Warhammer40k #orks40k #kitbash #armageddon40k #waaagh 

Brooksby the Forger

Brooksby the Brush is the Spider Skull Clan's best forger of paintings and other hummie rubbish. Never been caught either. #Warhammer40k #orks40k #deathskulls #new40k #armageddon40k 

Pauly the Pincher

Pauly Pinch Packet filches ketchup packets from resaurants and calls it loot. #Warhammer40k #orks40k #deathskulls #new40k #armageddon40k 

White hat orks

Benito the Boots is a big fan of the White Scar beakies ability to shoot-n-scoot. #Warhammer40k #orks40k #deathskulls #new40k #armageddon40k 

Photo backgrounds for Models

I finished some terrain, a base board, and a color changing light to add scenic atmosphere to some of my shots. I'm going to work on some Necromunda tiles and Zone Mortalis terrain next.

More Ork Shoota Boys

What's better than dakka? MOrE DakKA! #Warhammer40k #orks40k #deathskulls #armageddon40k #new40k

Ork Warboss - Big Bobby Boulders

"When you meet yer maker, tell'em I sent ya." Big Bobby Boulders - Warboss of the Spider Skull Clan. I just finished this old warboss model for my Deathskulls warband that I'm now calling the Spider Skull Clan. Spiders 'cause they have lots of sticky fingers. Skulls 'cause skulls mean you smart. Clan, 'cause the Wu Tang Clan ain't nothing to f' with. #Warhammer40k #new40k #orks40k #deathskulls #armageddon40k 

More Ork Boys

This nitty gritty git's favorite crime to commit is to hit, grab, then split. #Warhammer40k #orks40k #deathskulls #new40k #armageddon40k 

New ork boy ready to key your car!

This lad loves the sound of keys scraping across a Speed Freak's new car... TingTang Terry throws insults at inanimate objects that he thinks have wronged him.

Winks the Ork Boy

Winks ate a mushroom he stole from a weirdboy and hasn't slept in two years.  #orks40k #waaagh #Warhammer40k #new40k #armageddon40k 

Stinky Stew

Stinky Stew scratches his toes then smells his fingers. 

All Blue Deathskull Boy

The other boys in the mob make fun of Baxter's "Cadian Tuxedo." #orks40k #new40k #waaagh #deathskulls #armageddon40k 

Ork Painboys

 My Ork surgical team, Drs. Trapper, 'Awkeye, and 'Oneycut. The Painkillers.  The only thing worse than their medical technique is the bill.  #orks40k #deathskulls #armageddon40k #new40k #Warhammer40k

Ork Skin Recipie

I had a few people reach out about my ork skin recipe so I thought I'd make this guide on my process. #orks40k #waaagh #dakka #orks #paintingwarhammer 

Deathskulls Boss Snikrot

 My Deathskulls version of Boss Snikrot is ready to be sneaky AND loot. #new40k #orks40k #armageddon40k #waaagh #Warhammer40k 

Converted Ork Mek Boy

Fidgety Emmet is always borrowing tools and never returning them. I really enjoyed this simple conversion. The body and pole are from a runt herder, the head and banner pole from flash gits (or maybe lootas), the power saw arm from nobs or boyz, and the claw from meganobz. This guy follows around my Stompas and boosts that ballistic skill to a 4± - unheard of levels for Ork dakka! #Warhammer40k #waaagh #orks40k #deathskulls #armageddon40k 

Stevie Static - chief mek boy

Stevie Static's force field generator doesn't work any longer, but it does provide some protection from being stabbed in the back by backstabbers. #Warhammer40k #waaagh #oldhammer #orks40k #armageddon40k 

Grots ready to hold objective and farm CP!

This is my new favorite grot in the batch of gretchen I just finished repainting. These fellows, as the title says, are great for holding down objectives and farming command points. Having a second unit in my army is great, because while they rarely klii anything, the boost the rest of the army's effectiveness and keep my opponents at arms length. #Warhammer40k #waaagh #orks40k #deathskulls #armageddon40k

Midwest ConQuest Practice - Double Stompa List!

The Midwest ConQuest is one of my favorite local Warhammer 40k Grand Tournaments. I attend (almost) every year and usually have a great time.  Due to the lame-duck status of Warhammer 40k 10th edition, none of my usual gaming friends are going and I'll be flying solo. They just want to, "play with the new rules." It turns out, they are the lame ducks! I was tempted to play my Blood Angels, my strongest tournment army, or perhaps my Salamanders, but I thought that since I dont really have a prayer of winning, I should bring something fun. And I love a meme army. So, double stompa Orks it is! I haven't come up with a good name for the list yet, but here's what I'm bringing.  Ork Stompa (1995 points) Orks Strike Force (2000 points) More Dakka! CHARACTERS Mek (45 points)   • Warlord   • 1x Killsaw     1x Kustom mega-slugga Mek (45 points)   • 1x Killsaw     1x Kustom mega-slugga BATTLELINE Boyz (80 points)   • 9x Boy     • 9x Chopp...

Will Runt Herders be in 11th Edition?

Nicky Numbers was always good at being a bully and counting; useful skills for a runt herder. I'm getting really excited for these new Ork releases but I'm not sure if grots will have a minder in 11th edition so I put a fresh coat of paint on this lad just in case. I hope they aren't dropped, but there doesn't appear to be a model in the new launch box. If not, this lad gets promoted to Boy. Also, I've never painted a blue squig before... I think I prefer them red or orange. #40korks #waaagh #orks40k #armageddon40k #new40k 

New Old Deathskulls

Sprinkles Sullivan always unscrews the salt shakers at restaurants.  While lots of people are posting new model pics from GW, I'm over here working on my 25-year old pile of shame. #Warhammer40k #waaagh #orks40k #deathskulls 

Primaris Vulkan He'stan

Salamanders Forgefather, Vulkan He'stan is ready to search for the lost relics of his Primarch and prosecute the enemies on Armageddon!  #Warhammer40k #salamanders40k #vulkan #spacemarines40k #new40k 

Salamanders Infiltrators Family Photo

Every one of my Space Marine army lists starts with at least one squad of Infiltrators. 

Salamanders Infiltrator 2

This Salamanders Infiltrator is ready for new deployment in Armageddon!  Man, I love painting my Sallies. #warhammer40k #salamanders40k #armageddon40k #spacemarines40k #astartes

Salamanders Assault Intercessor with Jump Pack

I think I've come up with another recipe for my Salamanders and I'm tempted to repaint everything ... or do I just accept the variances in my models? I basically drybrushed the edge highlights and repainted the base layer over the dusty bits. It destroys some of the highlights I airbrushed but it's quite a bit easier and faster than brushing on all of those edge highlights that my shaky hands struggle to keep a crisp line. #Warhammer40k #spacemarines40k #salamanders40k #armageddon40k #astartes 

Necromunda Spyre Hunters

I just finished these Necromunda Spyre Hunters. My old eyes and shaky hands didn't do them justice and I'm not quite sure about my color choices, they look more like Infinity models now that they are done.  Here are my old Spyres. I forgot that I never finished painting these fellows.
