Da golden waaagh shall serve as my continuing work on my ork bad moons and another orky projects that catch my fancy along the way.

This project was started late 2012 when i decided to repaint my then deathskulls into the more regal bad moons. So far progress is very slow. Shots below are what I've done in the year of 2015 during my time at university and increased free time. The Following list shows many of the models that i curently have RED shows Currently Painted models, will try to update as i go.

Warboss, Mega Armour
Mad Doc Grotsnik
Warboss; Power Klaw
Big Mek; KFF (May need to repaint for better skin and metal colors)
Warboss, big choppa
3 Gamesworkshop Mega Nobs
1 Khromlech Mega Nobs (Klaw and Kombi-Skorcha)
3 Khromlech Mega Nobs (Mostly power klaws and shootas)
~40 Nobs (Varity of loadouts)
Burnas (20)
Lootas (~12)
Boys (~80)
Boys (19+ nob), with Khromlech armored torsos
50 more boys with khromlech armored torsos
Gretchin mob (30); 3 runt herds
Dakka jets, 2 (Original + Black Flame)
Four Deffdreads (armed with a variety of weapons and so far the two of which are painted Rathalos Dread armed with a ravager blade and a dread with babel spear and nargacuga armor)
11 deffkopta rokkits
Three Battle Wagons (Varity of Loadouts, including kill cannon)
Two Battle Wagons (One painted the other almost completed)
Trukk
Stompa
Two Leman Russes /looted wagons

Two knight titans (to be looted titans)
Terrain (city ruins which come with the renagade box set and the battle for macragge set)

Here are some of the many images Ive got floating around of the DA GOLDEN WAAAGH!!!! Have been mainly posting to Facebook ( https://www.facebook.com/Da-Golden-Waaagh-630659176948989/timeline/ ) under the Name DA GOLDEN WAAAGH, mainly due to a much easier phone upload system, but here is some of the work Ive been getting up to over 2015.

The second Dakka jet

Bit of a close up on the wing (as it was drying)

Mordiki the lucky stikk bearer

Converted Grosnik

And a shot of most of the painted models at the minute, including Warboss in mega armour, the new Mega nobs, grot snik, KFF mek, battlewagon and of course the last surviving Deathskull as a testimate to what came before DA GOLDEN WAAAGH!!!

Thats all so far any thoughts?

Heres a little work from yesterday, on the old stompa, certainly difficult to paint when assemble so have been hacking it up a bit to get it done.

Lots to go still but coming along slowly.

Well little more work on the stompa, arms are now magnetized for ease of transport and arming of alternative weapons.

As to the body have got most of the yellow and battle damge done just some cleaning and further work.

What do you think? Coming up ok?

also not too keen on the symbol might have to try again or work out another jdea didn't quite work too well.

Heres a few shots of the magnetized arms, and another of a test with attaching them to the fridge.

Any thoughts? Look any good?

Thanks, think that it came up not too bad.

Though am not too sure of how the symbol came up, might redo it but am done for now.

Am surprised that you haven't seen any yellow stompas, there is quite a few floating around on the internet. And the picachu stompa.

Looks great, I agree the front symbol might need a redo but over all not bad.
@Haskanael there have been many yellow stompa heck even I did one.

Next lot of progress, have been working on the second of the monster hunter dreads. This time nargacuga armor and a rasasa bowgun. The armor is going more in the style of the blademaster so parachute pants!!! And fishnet torso!!!

And heres the style I'll be trying to mimic:

Any thoughts? Lots more to go but thats for tommorrow.

Little more work on the second monster hunter dread. Mesh seems to be coming up ok may need to alter a little but reasonable for now.

Also my khromlech order finally came in another 50 torsos for the boys from a few weeks back, certainly lots of work to do on them.

Little bit more work on the second dread, just a little more painting and finishing off the bowgun to go. But that will have to wait until i get some more green stuff and can finish the modelling.

Heres a shot from earlier in the process of pining everything that wasn't attached particularly the exhausts which always seem to break off with the smallest bit of force.

Any thoughts? How do you think its coming?

Little bit more, mainly bronze and some tidying. As well as a few different angles.

Also thought to link my monster hunter dreads better to "Da golden waaagh" with a little spot of yellow on each.

Also been pondering changing the weapon on this dread as to the rasasa bowgun isn't coming up quite as id like. Maybe one of these insted:

Any thoughts?

Firstly, I love the contrast of a little yellow compared to the other lots of yellow.

The weapon now seems ork clunky. The otheres shown seem very refined and dont say "ork" to me. That being said something Imperial damaged or looted couldbe fun. Like a sentinel leg with a SM dread cc weapon as a mock-up of a thunder hammer. Thats my 2 cents....

Thanks feel that they are coming up alright so far. The yellow certainly does work well but i do like my fully yellow models too.

As to the weapons. Thats actaully part of the ideas have something which isn't 100% to the theme of orks but more the monster hunter, the first does work well because of the fact that it is a gigantic blade which orks love anyway.

If they are too unorky i might change but it is part of the plan.

Intresting concept... fluff mightmight fit that eldar gifted them with lance weapons for some eldar warlock warp sight reason.
Curious to see this.

Oooh I really like this idea - save, perhaps get an imperial knight chainblade from someone (or two back to back) and Konvert that to make it orky, with DED KILLY written in Yellow on it...

Niiiiiice

Well guessing you haven't seen the old mega dread someone converted when they first came out. Also NOT MINE.

That actually looks like the stompa chainsword. But watch this space will have my own converted knight titans soonish (got a pair on order currently).

As to work that I've done now, did a little work on the weapons for the dread.

Also did a little recycling with the modeling of the lance; one of my old GW starter brushes from my first kits the Battle for macragge set.

Bit more based on another obsession of mine not sure if you've, seen or heard of its a game called monster hunter over the years I've calculated I've spend around 1200-1300 hours on it which really pales in comparison to the few hours I've spent painting and playing Warhammer 40000.

Just because i can heres a little cover art, to show some of the many games I've obsessed over in the series.

This is where the artwork that I'm attempting to convert into some unique ork dreadnaughts who as per the games have slain great monsters and create armor and weapons from them. Certainly hope that you all are enjoying them so far.

That is a stellar place for an idea. Good call. Look forward to seeing it broight to fruition. Certainly close with the one posted before.

Little bit more work on the dread, nothing much only a few minutes of fiddling and green stuff and little bit of a basecoat for the gold.
