Ork Warbikes Painted
Finally got round to taking some pics of the finished Ork Warbikes unit. Some of these were a repair job, such as the Ork with goggles. I also had to glue the guns back on, which I had sawn off many years ago to make an Ash Wastes gang for Necromunda.
I like that they all look like individual characters each with their own back story. I was going for a rusty, scrapyard look with war bikes. I don't imagine Orks take good care of their vehicles and equipment and that they are made out of scavenged parts.
The banners are Ork Freebooters ones. I don't think of these as Ork Freebooterz, I just liked the design. Not sure what clan I will go with. I used to have an Evil Sunz army, but it was all bright red. I'm not sticking to the old lore that much, I like the idea that they are more like raiders from Mad Max (especially the Buzzards) so I might go with Death Skulls, except without the blue colours.
From left to right:
- Takka the Headtaker (usually first into battle. Likes to take souvenirs of the people he meets),
- Porkins (chubby, nervous and usually hangs back. Terrible shot. Wears sight correcting googles),
- Wazrok (psychotic mushroom consuming leader),
- Zoggrund (the cool shades wearing member. fancies himself the ladies man of the bunch),
- Krug (Taciturn. Doesn't say much. His twin brother Gruk is on the Nobz bike).
