Purple Nobz Bloggin it up!

[Beastarino]

Hey guys -

I decided to keep a blog of my painting progress. Check it out and comment on my shiz!

Purrple Waaaaaghhh!

Added some shots of my WIP Wazzdakka gutsmeck

[Jaws]

Real interesting choice of colors. They look good. Can't wait to see more of your work.

[Beastarino]

thanks Jaws - i've enjoyed painting them but painting this huge batch of boyz has been rough. they are two color right now, hope to paint the leather on them sunday.

[Omega1907]

Interesting colour choice indeed, but looks good and well done!
Keep up the good work and us up to date

[CaptainAl]

Really nice mate! Refreshing to see and it works well.

[DesignerFox]

Wow, they look really good! I hadn't seen purple Orks before, mostly green or red. Very good choice of colour to go with the purple.

[Beastarino]

I'll be painting some more tonight, possible more pictures, but i dont know yet, Just painting boyz... soo many boyz to paint.

[Salag]

Heh I have to admit, I wasn't looking forward to seeing the pictures but that actaully looks pretty good! A very bold move but it looks like it's paid off and can look really good.
Just be careful in picking the colours to go with it

Just a quick note on magnetising the Burnas/Lootas:
I've been playing around with this as I hate the idea of having all those bits and not getting to use them. It was a bit fiddley but once I knew what to do it wasn't too bad. The best way, I found was to put them together with blutac or something to start so that you know how they're suppose to fit and then work it out from there.
It's a great idea and allows you to try out different combinations much easier.

Looking forward to seeing more of da purple boyz

[Beastarino]

Thanks Salag - good tip on the bluetac.

Yea - its funny at my LGS everytime someone new comes in the main guy who works there is like Hey you wanna see some cool models i never would have thought of (as he's painting his Tomb Kings Eldar army ) ... *points to my Orks*

I'm really happy with the orange that i've chosen for pretty much all of their pants. because with a heavy dev mud wash (read liquid talent) they turn to a good lookin brown/orange.

I'm kinda nervous about How i'm going to paint my trukks/battlewagon. and Bikes eventually.

[Beastarino]

after a few days ... i've updated it again

[edmundblack]

Shouldn't they be called Purks then?

Just a hint - you might see more traffic if you posted pics as well as the link. From what I can see, they're coming along nicely. Keep it up!

[Salag]

Agreed! Pictures always help, maybe not all of the ones from the blog but some.

Either way, they look good. You didn't have to wrroy about painting the vehicles after all! That looks great!
I'm going to have to watch that video that you posted up as well, if that's what it can produce then I'm in! I'm in some dire need of help

EDIT:
That video was really good! Unfortunately I've already undercoated most of my Nobz/Boyz in black so might have to try the reverse somehow...

[Beastarino]

i've done all of my stuff undercoated in black, i like how the purple looks better, but i can see how doing an ork or even tyranid army in that manner would be so painless.

[Beastarino]

Hey guys -

its been a while, but I've updated the blog! heres a preview







Let me know what you guys think!!

[Silas]

Very bright, and quite clean. I usually wouldn't trust a white primer for most of my models, but i think it worked out quite nicely for you!
