The first of the Meganobz is finished. His buddies are next in the queue.

| Bad ass Ork comin' at ya. |
 |
| He is the only one of the three that I modeled in the act of firing. |
 |
| Pinchy, pinchy! |

There sure are a lot of exposed gubbinz on this heavy armor...
"But dere in da back, see?" |
 |
| The wires were kind of a pain to paint and I'm not sure I love the effect of the red and yellow. |
 |
| He took a Red Brotherhood helmet as a trophy from the victory two battles ago, before he became a meganob. |
 |
| I can't wait to have a few more of these riding around in their megatrukk. |
He was tough to paint, but overall I think he came out OK. It is always challenging for me to paint all the wires on Ork equipment without them being too colorful and standing out more than the other details. I tried to tone down the yellow with a watered-down coat of brown to make it look dirty and blend in with the rusty metal a little better. It's not bad. From the front, he looks great. I love the trophy pole.
Next up, the boss nob with the huge kustom klaw!
Absolutely fabulous (um, not in a gay way...)! Your skin highlights are great. I also like the colorful wires. Helps distinguish him from the grungy boyz. And they *are* in the back so in a group shot, he won't brighten up the horde's dark and dirty shades.
ReplyDeleteThanks. It seems like all those exposed wires would be a weak link in the heavy armor. I guess the Orks just figure no one will ever be able to attack them from behind?
