From memory it was Mark Bedford, who updated the look of the whole range from the Rogue Trader days to what we have now. He's to Orks what Jes Goodwin is to Eldar.

Not sure about Ghaz, but wasn't it Brian Nelson who did most of the new Orks back in 3rd edition?

I love the purple and green. Need more purple models up in here.

Doing my best with this sneaky git:





I don't get enough chances to use purple so this was a nice change of pace from a horde of Goffs.

That's really cool

Thanks, now I just need to make a couple of friends for him so I can give my Orks a proper go in Kill Team. I wasn't much of a fan of the GW Kommandos kit so I got some third party bits from Kromlech and Spellcrow to make some up.

That """silencer""" is incredible.

I'm glad it comes across well. I was worried it wouldn't look right. Just don't ask how it actually 'works'...

A dark gray airbrush-ready paint that’s similar to Eshin Gray: anyone know of one? I’d also take something that’s not airbrush ready but is in a dropper bottle 🙃

Vallejo Model Color Dark Grey (70.994) is pretty much the same. Assuming the Model Air range is the exact same colour, that should do you.

Edit: My ignorance of the Model Air range is showing through there. It looks like they're not the same range, so I'm not sure which of the many dark greys in the Air range is a match. :(

I can’t remember the current rule: if a unit is in the index and in the codex, are you required to use the codex entry or can you choose which one you want to use?

If it's in the codex you have to use that, but if the Index has a wargear option for that unit that isn't in the codex, you can use that option from the Index.

Quick question for modeling in general (not sure if right thread).

I think one or two of old metal gw models might be lead.

I painted them at the same time I painted an army. What's the chance my paints/models are contaminated with lead?

From a quick googling, it looks like GW switched to lead-free by March 1997, so as mentioned above, they'd have to be pretty old (2nd edition or earlier).

This guy would be the biggest





Also a few odd bits from this dude.

Looks like those are the Blood Thirster and Lord of Change from this old catalogue, so circa 1991 or earlier, and therefore probably do indeed have lead.

Looks like GW legal went after Battlescribe.

Have you got any source for that? If it's a case of the files not showing up in Battlescribe, then you probably just need to wait a while. They tend to disappear and reappear from time to time; something to do with wherever they're hosted.

Ok I downloaded impcat to try out some schemes for my Boyz, but there's like only 9 models loaded, they're mainly for obscure named characters or sex traffickers. How do I get honest boyz?

There's a bundle of models you can download here, but it doesn't include any Orks. :(

Vallejo Heavy Red is supposedly close, but just a little darker.

This guy looks super cool. Hopefully it's a double barreled version of the foul blightspawn fire-hose but you can have a unit of them :getin:

It looks kinda like terminator armor, but the pauldrons are different? Did they say if it's a character? Similar aesthetic to gravis armor.

He's the Lord of Virulence, a Chaos Lord who 'specialises in accompanying daemon engines', buffing Defilers, Plagueburst Crawlers etc.

E: Well beaten. Took way too long looking up the video.
