Cheers Doom, but that`s Ork`s for you..................... Yeah, GW kinda shot 'emselves in the foot going on about how everything Orky is 'Kustom Built' and how no two are the same - and then mass produce an identikit with virtually no build options to vary the final appearance of the end product. Much more fun to (for instance) stick two sets of RT Rhino tracks back to back to beef them up a bit, stick a RT Battlewagon front end to them and top it off with a current Battlewagon roof and turret stuck on top, then fill all the holes in with tinplate and Milliput

Blatant Points Grubbing Exercise Alert!
When I was putting my grots away after their photoshoot I noticed that (apart from two converted plastic goblins) they were all metal, was pretty sure I had some of the newer plakky ones around somewhere. After a fairly brief game of 'Hunt the Grot' I managed to find five of the little blighters and a Runtherd that had originally been converted to oversee the loading deck on my stompa (he'd been rejected for filling up enough of the loading deck that there wasn't enough room for everything else that needed to go in there). After 6 weeks throwing paint at Flashgitz and a fortnight lightening the kammo on my BattleWagon (painted it too dark, ended up having to use colours I'd describe as off-whites before it was light enough) I thought I deserved summit a bit quicker and these were just the ticket
Besides, imagine how relieved my BloodAxes are now that they've got 22 grots to hide behind

LOL, I suppose I could paint it to match my Orko Maliss images removed via request or author Zog.

Yes, you do Max So, I've not been too happy with the rust I've been getting, posting the Orko Maliss MANz suggested a slightly different way to get rust by using the same technique I'd used on their armour - prime with matt black/Mournfang brown/red oxide Sloppybrush with brass, gunmetal, copper and tinbitz metallics And lather it with a burnt umber oilwash instead of a black one Might need another coat, and a couple of days to dry, then a quick coat of matt varnish and I can call it Primered
