The last wip picture for project Orks. 2014/2015

This is the very last wip post for project Orks. It's been a blast!
Due to things well beyond my control I am ending this project.
There is whispers already of another project in the new year!
I have to say that this has been a good learning opportunity for me and it has been a lot of fun to use colors I wouldn't normally use, Mostly the yellow.
I hope this army turns a few heads and has many victories. I know winning with Orks is both challenging and rewarding. And may this horde trample their foe under foot at every battle!

Thank you all very much for following along.
Picture time!!!

















I am going to attempt one last round of pictures to show the completed horde!

So, whats left to do?

Not a lot as it turns out! This week has been all about paint touch up and finishing a few things up.
Next week is already looking hectic. The plan is to spray seal the rest of the models already painted, finish paint touch up, just a few left and get the bases and mud effects done.
What I'm not going to do. It hurts a little to say I'm not going to do something but it is what it is. I'm not going to mess wit the land Raiders. those were suppose to be turned into battle wagons.
There are a few reasons. Firstly is I'm closing down shop for a while.
(Sean I owe you an email this weekend.) Regardless of the Land Raiders it's a very nice looking collection and as we all know well painted models are dead ard' on the table top.
( ..and something about getting stuck in.. )
It's an old GW adage.

I expect to be able to open shop again after the new year. I just really need the time away from any project commitments for a while. That doesn't mean I wont be painting just that I wont be able to handle a commission for a while.

It's been one heck of a crazy year full of little off green men...
Well more like nearly blue.. well, teal-ish really..

However, there will be a picture dump and a video as well forth coming.
So stay on the lookout for that.

Some pictures from my table to end the post.

Mental health and the terror that is..Yellow.

Today I feel really good! The last few days I've made some progress.
I've been touching up the colors on the Mega nobs, working on the last three Ork Boys and working on the last two bosses. It's Sunday. I'm not planning to spend all day on much of anything. I just realized I hadn't posted yet and was working on retouching some Deff koptas. The drivers still need just a little bit and they're done.

Last week was not overly productive I had to head up to see Mom and Dad. Grandma is, was in the hospitalized. She should be in rehab now and moving in with my parents after that. I had wanted to see her sooner but I am glad I was able to see her when I did. My brother even called her, he's stationed in Korea right now. It was a really good "pick me up" for her.

Getting home I felt much better than I had for weeks. I knew she had fallen and had seen a doctor and had a procedure done.
I guess I'm just amazed that my own mental health could be so effected and that the little trip to see her and my parents did me so much good.
At any rate. I've just been painting and things are coming together.

Picture time!
wip.








More to come.

The week of the mega Nobs!.

Mega Nobs were on the table this week. it's taken a little bit to figure out what to do with them.
I think they look about right for this army. Still have to sort out the basses.
I also plan to add more yellow flame to the shoulder guards. Just a bit more to do over all.





Thanks for looking!

Just a bunch of pictures of my army from last weeks game.

I took these pictures Sunday a day after the last game I played.
My opponent had pictures of his force so I just had to do it as well.
You can find my army list a post or two back.















I love my Orks, and spend a lot of time over last year repainting and touching up the miniatures and as I looked at these models..I have so much more to do! 

Thanks for looking
And remember.
Green Is Best!
