Well, as the title says I'm building myself a Death Wing, sort of., which of course means that I've taken the glorious Death Wing and remade it in the image of da Deff Wing. Well. A Double Wing really, but anyway, here’s what’s on my desk at the moment.

Zamm-L (still needs a head and a few other things)

Dreadnought Drop Pods (a few details and some green stuff needed)

LOVE IT.

Meganobz in looted Deathwing armour? Terminator helmets worn at jaunty angles on top of the head? Leg armour torn because the legs are too fat? Oh! Suits you, sir.

Interesting. This could be very fun.

Well, I plan to base the "terminators" on Black Orcs, with some "minor" modifications. I hope to get the first batch before the weekend. My parents are visiting this weekend, which should give me some 40k time, as they will be busy with their grandchildren.

I used the Black Orcs for my Heavy Armored Nobz - they're in my painting pile now.

I will probably make "normal Space Marines" out of less converted Black Orcs. The Terminators will be larger.

Love this Idea...I know that they are pricey, but have you considered just using Mega Nobs as your Terminators? I think they would be fun to equip with converted assault weapons (TH/SS and LC's).

Man alive...now you have me thinking about it more than I should...Heh, just when I thought I was done buying models...

Yes, I thought of Mega Nobs, but I don't want metal. I'll try to make the Black Orcs look like more sophisticated Mega Nobs.

You never have enough models

I've made a first version of a "terminator" and a "tactical" ork. The pictures were really bad though. I totally failed to show the size difference, so I’ll have to take new ones. There’s been a slight delay there, my wife found a house she wants to buy, preferably before x-mas…

Sorry about the delay. Well, we bought the house...

But anyway...

Crappy pictures, but ok for a size comparison.

There´s quite a lot of details still to do. The Mega Nobb will be a bit bulkier, but not much.

Yesterday I had time for my first real sit down this year =)
I’ve got 2 Dreadnoughts, 6 Bikes and 1 Attack Bike pretty far along.

really really love the front on shot of Zamm-L, perfect Ork mix of menace and farce.
Subcribed, this is a really exciting project

I like it, always good to have more orks. Not sure i'd use the helmeted heads for the tactical and terminators though. It makes them look too similar IMHO

I'va managed to have some more alone time =)
Nothing of this is actually finsihed, though.

What do you think about the shield as extra armour?

seems really wierd looking at Ork Dreds with only 2 arms, but I really like it.

I may have to steal the idea of a Dreadnought sized shield as extra armour! I think that's fantastic (and quite easy for me to retrofit/magnatise on to my current dreds)

Woah, those two dreds look wicked and menacing. Less clunky, more hurty.

I'm rather pleased with the dreads my self.

I’ve finally been able to take some time from the slightly too large renovation of my newly purchased house.

This is what’s happened so far this 4-day weekend.

2 of 17 terminators

What I’m not sure about is the Storm Shields. I’ve got two alternatives…

1) Parts of dozer blades, then they can all be the same
2) Parts from tanks (doors and such). Different, but all on the same theme

What do you think?

For some strange reason I started two units of “Scouts” yesterday. They still need a lot of bitz and green stuff, though…

Grand job. Really love humerous Ork armies and those Grot Scouts have that in abundance! Fantastic use of the Grot Blastas to make sniper rifles especially.
