What are the ORC BIGUNS?

Ubertechie:

Looks good - i like the dark muted tones - very evil looking

Canix:

Thanks for the comments :smiley: Not sure what to paint from the marauders might start with the mage

Cool sorcerer conversion, he doesnt look very evil thou… :stuck_out_tongue:

What are the ORC BIGUNS?

tjub
The orc big uns are pre slotta orcs from citadel Fantasy tribes theres another 30 being painted including converted standards all early 80’s Perry sculpts:hat

Canix:

Because of the neglect my chaos dwarfs have suffered over the last year i aim to paint a whole lot of Marauders,3rd ed and others this year ,seems i have alot more time on my hands:D.

The aim really is to enable my CD’s to be played in store etc using dwarf rules ,this means more warrior types and extras.My blunders can be used as thunderers and here are WIP pictures of the heros and first quarrelers/crossbowmen.







I am not sure what to paint next,possible options are

Slayers  3rd ed naked cd,dwarfs,mutants etc

Immortals 2Hweapon armed marauders and 3rd ed in plate

Warriors(Iron breakers) marauders,3rd ed hw,shield

Blunders 3rd ed bazookas,swivel gun ,mortar

Gyrocopter conversion(Still needs stripping)

Whirlwind and tenderiser

also 4th ed

Hobgoblins  

more Orc pre slotta

Taurus

Lammassu

Their are a few minis missing that i am still attempting to get and a few on the way but i am ready to go so which do you think i should paint first.Target is 2-4weeks each Option :hat

clam:

Great, great stuff, Canix - and so nice to see you back on the track - guess we are on for the same mission in '09 - our own Mission Impossible :wink:

More time … no more sleepless nights and change of napkins? :smiley:



As long as it 3rd/Marauders I really don’t care - but would really like to see you do the unit of Immortals, as I want to see those Marauders painted up, now :wink: - but Slayers, Blunders, Tenderiser and Whirlwind would be cool too.

Hmmm, Gyrocopter conversion you say …, sounds promissing :wink:

Looking forward to see you progress.

Kera foehunter:

looks good!!! i like the gold how it luster and call out take me Kera

i like the blue cape too

Canix:

Cheers,GH8 is over for us lesser mortals so here is my entry with my first three 3rd ed crew with converted Battleground catapults and crossbow toy that cost 75p .Trial running my colourscheme for the older models :hat

I had problems with the photos but am getting the hang of it these arnt so blurry





Swissdictator:

Very nice work. I have to admit I am jealous of all those classic figures!

The warmachine looks diabolical and crafty enough to actually shake the Earth too

Kera foehunter:

wow i loved that model canix it would look good on a ship!!

Willmark:

That thing is indeed huge. Needsvto look a bit more evil however.

wallacer:

Good stuff. I was going to say that the Bull Centaurs were my favourite until I saw that huge Earthshaker. Love it. It is exactly the kind of crazy thing that CD engineers would build.

Swissdictator:

Are you going to make a display board to match the basing? I think you could have a really cool look going if you did… and it’d do a lot for painting scores!
