Love your Orks. Really fun to look at.
I had lots of old school Orks, sold them off years ago.
Have regretted it. My son never lets me forget.
He says they were some of my best painted figures.
Oh well, that's life.

Back again with Greenskins. Tiny classic Gretchins:



And the legendary charismatic Dreadnought:



The comparison pic with the RT Dreadnought:



Little else to say, just pure nostalgia ;).

Very nice! I like both dreadnought.

I think the Gretchn are silly, but they are perfect for 40K 2nd edition  ;D

Looking really good, I'm about to start a late RT/2nd Ed Ork army soon so these are really inspiring :)

I had one of those dred's once.
Left it over at a guy I lost contact with  :(.

My second edition orcs are some of the models not currently in use that I can't put myself to put on e-bay.
I'm hoping someday I'll have the time and energy to create something cool, like you did.

I have one of those little Gretchins! I should try and paint him. Your Dreadnoughts are fantastic though, love those guys, really well painted; now post up another classic AAR!  :D


Cheers,

I love all these bright green orks. I remember how disappointed I was when I saw everybody switching to dark green ork skin. You can't tell the orks from the Catachans at a distance if they don't have skin that practically glows. You've done these boyz proud.

Not an Ork fan really but these look amazing. Great work. Really like those old Gretchin. Shame they can't be armed with Autoguns in 6th. I think they only have silly pistol weapons called Grot Blasters these days.

They're Assault Weapons, but yeah, you're right!
