Nice paint job!

I really like the old Rogue Trader stuff. The only GW minis I have from that era are Judge Dredd. This guy would fit right in as a Cursed Earth desperado, or even a street level borg.

Wow...nice work!  I love these old Orks....and yours makes me love them more!

I can see a few squads of these coming my way some day in the future...so much lead....so little time!

Cheers,

Blue

Very nice painting. I'm a big fan of the old RT miniatures and especially the Orks from back then. I have a small army of RT and 2nd Ed Orks myself.

Lovely job.

Those armoured orks are classics.  Cant wait to see more :)

Thats a super paintjob, I love the old mega-armoured Orks, you've nailed the red particularly well!

STELLAR!  A really nice paint job and a good photo, FWIW.  These guys always looked good in red as long as there are a few other colours to offset the "holiday effect".  I would love to paint one of the old power-armored orcs in my copious free time, but the minis go for a small fortune on eBay...  or at least more than I would pay.

Now that is a nice looking ork!
Good to see the old figures getting some attention.

I have that exact model awaiting painting; I hope mine looks half as nice as yours.
