The bikers are stunning. Wow. I'm as excited for these as I hoped I would be for Wazdakka.
The cover of ere we go is my favourite ork art and I think it's evil sunz o'clock. I've no shortage of deathskulls. I know Wazdakka isn't an evil sunz mek but to most unsuspecting beakies they won't tell the difference between one lot of red bikes or another.
I tend to sponges them. I do
1) metallic base
2) Seraphin sepia
3) reikland flesh shade
4) agrax
I then sponge colour on top. So for yellow I'd sponge averland sunset then another brighter yellow. Then a smidge of brown/ silver for weathering/ damage. Just bits of torn kitchen sponge too, nothing fancy.
Thank you kindly, that's muchly appreciated. Is yours on here?
I have to say I had a blast building and painting it. Can't do this with any other army by comparison.
If memory serves, the price on these last time was quite eye watering. It'll be "interesting" to see the prices as they're one guard regiment I keep looking at
No worries.
Having just looked again at the GW Canada and UK webstores, they're now not even showing.
As such they'll be redone or gone.
However, if you love the kit, if lootas do go you could run them as tankbustas instead.
Honestly we don't know. Lootas/ burnas are as orky as boyz but all we know is the kit is currently not being sold online.
I hope for a new kit rather than "legendsing" but currently we don't know.
Not too long to wait and see. Boyz and grots are bread and butter so I do think we'll get the "Armageddon Boyz" in the core set and new combat patrol. With the codex I'm expecting Boyz, grots and lootas/ burnas as multipart. Beyond that I guess we'll see.
We've had boxes of 10 Boyz for years now. If that remains the case and grots stay as units of 10 I don't think they'll box 20 boyz together as it's two units - the nobs can only be built as such. As for ages the policy is a box is a unit then it'd have to be 20 boys and 10 grots.
I think more likely this is for core set and combat patrol. (Hopefully) And that we get a different box of Boyz. The lootas/ burnas box is "sold out online"" too so I think there's interesting times ahead.
