Ok, one of the cool things that has kind of gotten lost was the concept of ork clans, each clan had it’s own distinct idiosyncrasies and appearance. Nowadays, the only way to tell one ork from another is through paint schemes for the most part. So I plan on using some third-party heads to represent other clans along with the paint schemes. So far I have Deathskulls (Lootas) and Goffs (standard out of the box slugga boyz).

Paint Marathon!
Ok, went on a painting bender this weekend and plowed through some major work on my Stormboyz!

Warboss and Shoota Boyz
Here is my Warboss with attack squig, and two shoota boyz I needed to round out one of my units.

The cast was so poor that the multicolored cables weren’t looking very clean, so I just made everything black.
