Why not? Apart from the Chaos Dwarf logo on the flag, but simple C'n'P can edit that out...

 

[aaglo]

Oh yeah... that Chaos Dwarf logo looks more like a deathskullz logo than a snakebitez logo.

Or just keep the battlekroozer for snakebites too. I'm sure they have at that time gotten the hang of that technology too - right?
Or should I remake the Leveller with snakebitez logos and whatnot? Altough it would rather decrease my workload than increase it

Also, I thought of making the kroozer and battlekroozer similar to the leveller: all guns (big ones!) facing fowards. Maybe only one big gun for the kroozer, and atleast two for the battlekroozer. Everything else is still unknown (lenght, width, height, single/multihull.. etc.)

 

[aaglo]

Okay... this took a little while to make. I think it turned out pretty well

As you can see, it's clearly the biggest ork ever - even when compared to the ork boss...

for the record: no, I'm not going to add any hydraulics hoses to the arms. That model is difficult enough to handle already.

 

[LMR]

Waaagh! Looks great And HUGE!

Perhaps you should have this guy walking instead of running. Mega Armour doesnt really lend itself to mobility, and being as huge as he is, he would probably keep up by walking

As for the ships, feel free to go nuts! Maybe the battlewagon would be a good place to start, like the space marine barge looks like a landraider

 

[aaglo]

Okay, I'll try to make that warlord walk properly.

Here's a preview of the ork nob. And whaddayanow - I got a sort of space marine helmet done (see the preview). And also in the prev, there's a ork boss for size comparison.

Should I replace that chainsword with an axe? Atleast that sword somehow does not look right... maybe there's too much "round bits" in it. the chain bits near the handle should propably be nothing than a crude box.

 

[LMR]

Great Space Moron head! Good size too

For the chainsword, the Ork versions have a small motor and exhaust, and guard on the top of it (see C1 in the sprue below):

And as for colour, i'd make the guard black and yellow warning stripes. i've done it for one of my boyz and it looks cool

 

[aaglo]

I thought of making it look like that (yellow stripes), but when I started making it, I forgot what I was supposed to do

Now it looks much better

 

[LMR]

Maybe its just the angle, but the sword looks a little small

And for the sword attack, could you do what you did with the Chainsaw Maniac? That splatters and all that gore

 

[aaglo]

I shortened the sword a bit, but not much.

And I think I'll try to add some gore & sparks

 

[LMR]

Excellent! I like that very muchly

 

[aaglo]

Dat is gud

BTW, I wonder what happened to Stormy... and I hope he doesn't get a heart-attack when he comes back...

 

[LMR]

He will be overwhelmed with green!

Which is a good thing

Here are some links and pics of Ork ships for later. Well, they are spaceships, but they would apply the same designs to their watercraft

[aaglo]

That first ship looks a lot like the waaagh-barge I already did

The latest ork pack is here :

[LMR]

Yeah, i thought that when i looked at it too

 

[aaglo]

Okay,
Here's a preview of the mekboy. Is this anywhere near you were thinking about? I think the exteriors of the backpack need some work (like a big patch in there somewhere), but otherwise I kinda like it

 

[aaglo]

Here is that mekboy, with a bit different (and I think a better) backpack.

Or... should I just skip the backpack idea?

 

[Virote_Considon]

I like the new backpack best!

All the green in this thread is making me think of going green myself... TO THE DARK ANGELS OF COURSE!!!

 

[LMR]

Second backpack for me too

 

[aaglo]

Well, what it should do in the attack B with that spanner? Just hit with it? Or should I add also some "wrenching action" to the weapon in the attack too? That would be cool, I think
