Bad Moon Mega Armored Orks (Part 4)


Old School Bad Moon Meganobz.
Hello!
Yesterday I managed to finish up this unit of classic Meganobz. I had been picking at them ever since I posted part-3, usually between the other projects I had been working on also (and those moments have  been scarce!). But yesterday, I found myself with time-off that I had not fully anticipated so I took full advantage of that and jammed these guys out. I didn't take any progress pics, I didn't have time for any pauses like that.

A look at hoses.
Two of the Nobz had the gun with the really thick hose. One I painted in a sort of traditional mech safety pattern and the other was painted blue with white stripes...or white with blue stripes -it's difficult to differentiate.


Bloodletter wash helped with down-toning the yellow and deepening the shadier bits of the yellow armor and moon icons.


The grass tufts were added last. I went for the colors that reminded me of desert shrub grass, as this environment is the one I typically see my orks happiest in. Aside from ruins that is.



The whole unit was done in time for me to take these glamor shots before the Mrs. got home from her toils. Not bad for an afternoon of dedicated focus!

The Meganobz Mob.
Here they are joined by the Warphead and the Rogue Trader era Deff Dread, making up the Bad Moon faction of painted Orks. I do wanted to expand on this group, and in time I will,  but I think I will take a  break from 'yellow' for a while. Having made that statement it is bugging me that I don't have any troops painted up for this faction...

The completed Bad Moon Regiment (so far). 

And that is all for now, have a great remainder of the holidays and a Happy Christmas to you!

They came out really well, truly brought them back to life. What is next in the older orks pile?
