Most of us paint our Orks and wat not in your favourite klan colors. But what if we had multiple klans in your waaagh? Warboss Tae from the-waaagh.com forums just showed us how cool is his army! His army consists of Orks from all da klans roll into one. Very colorful I should say.
Here is what he have to say about his painting scheme :
Hey Warboss Tae here with my first ever 40k army.
Fluff-wise, it's a freebootin', world-hoppin', fungus-beer-drinkin' mob of orks that have left their separate clans to join Azbag da Stomper'er's space-farin' Waaagh!
I like painting all of the different clans and thought, "Why bog myself down with one of the six clans, when I can paint stuff from each one?" Hence, the freebooter theme.
Also, I thought, why just have squads of each clan (a squad of Deathskull lootaz, a squad of Evil Sunz bikerz) when I can mix em all up? So, my solution was to create the following table and roll a D6 for each model in the unit, to decide what clan the model originally came from, then paint it accordingly. It's kept it fun and kept me interested in continuing to find new and interesting ways to convert and paint the models once I knew where they came from.

Go check more pictures from the original post here! And here are some samples :
Check out the Grotz looting Imperial Guardmen's gunz and uniforms, da Kool Deffskull Klown, and the "Assashun's Kreed" Deffwing Mega Nobz. It will be much more awesome if he completed his army with Pirate Orks! Or maybe Ninja Orks? This guy inspired me to paint multiple klans in my Waaagh for da perfect harmony! What'cha guys think? Big Waaagh makes Orks happy! >:D
LOL! That lascannon (or rather 'counts as' Zzap gun) team is an awesome idea!
ReplyDeleteLOL...we Orks loot anything don't we? Even da grotz can bully those IG humies! :P
