Ork Wolves
Well here it is, the first finished test model for the new army I will be working on in the new year.
This is a counts as Space Wolf that will be an elite Ork army. This is a Long Fang with a Missile Launcher. Or in this army...a Long Toof with a Rokkit Launcha.
I saw this and am completely going to copy you. I'm sorry. I love ork models and I love space wolves codex. So I'm going to swing some space orky-wolves cavalry army. I don't know much about fantasy bits, so how do you like the black orcs box? Is it as quality as the orks in the 40k setting?
@Matt - The Black Orks are hard to work with for making conversions. There are only about 6 out of the 10 that are easy to use. But they are almost one piece models. Only parts not on them is arms and head. There are 4 Orks in the box who has arms raised up over thier heads in 2-handed motions, they will be harder to use. But the Standard Bearer parts will make great Wolf Standard Grey Hunters.
No worries. Happily they are plastic models which will help a lot in the conversions. However they are pretty thick plastic. If you plan on cutting one in half lets say I would suggest using something like the GW hobby saw they sell. I wouldn't try to cut one using a traditional hobby knife.
I'd love to be there to see some of your opponent's heads explode when faced with BS4 Armor 3+ "Orks".

ReplyDeleteThat is very disheartening to hear!
ReplyDeleteSorry for the multiple comments, but are the black Orc models metal?
