Hello again fellow Modelers and Wargammers,

It's been a while, but here is the latest thing I've been working on. Orks. This is one of my favorite armies because you can go wild with conversions and scratch building and just about everything will fit in nicely. I'm planning to do quite a lot of scratch for this army

My idea is to create an Army that includes all six Ork clans, making each clan been a small force in itself. With this in mind here is the first clan, the Goffs. I kept the color palette simple. Most models were undercoated with black and then I added details using red and white.

I also started working on some armor for the Goffs.

Here are some Gutrippas….

That’s how far I've gotten. See you next time.

Im a Gaurd player for Epic. But i also do Chaos and a bit of space marines too.
If your planning scratch building models. Take a good look at 40K models. If your doing your own custom ork boyz or any other kind of ork infantry. Map them on 40k counterparts. For i know a guy who has done his own scratch built epic space marine army. And it's amazing, the centerpiece is his warhound squadron which looks exactly like the 40k forge world version.
I myself have tried it, with not so amazing results. But if your skilled enough it becomes easy over time.
Post some pics of your completed work it might even give me some inspiration!

Hi Anders,

Do you have any links to where I can see your friends models? It would be great to see his work.

I am planning to scratch build some vehicles and convert a lot of the ones I have. Some I will based on the 40k models, other I'm just making them up, its the beauty of Orks everything can be different.:p

Anyways, I have a Guard army and a Chaos one too. I will be posting some photos when I get to work on them.
