Sprayed silver, red and a few other colors painted on then Woodland Scenics washes all the way.  I basically was having a shot at Onyx's painting style to match the orks he done for me.

The Hulk was done ages ago.  I just done everything else today from assembly to painted to first game in a minute.

I was pretty pleased to get it all done.  It was my first attempt at using that style of painting.  I managed to have the silver spray can I undercoated them with go crazy on me though, I forgot to clean the nozzle and it jammed on then when I was trying to clear it I pulled the nozzle off and ended up with the entire contents of the can emptying out at maximum rate.  Sensibly I had it pointed right at my face so my eyes are feeling a little rough still.

Another shot of the hulk.



The basic shape was cut out of foam card then chunks of expanded polystyrene were used to fill it out.  It has all sorts of bitz in there from a coral nid infestation to a pacer erraser massive gun, tablet bottle lid engines, guitar tuning peg gun and all sorts of junk that was collected together at a local gaming club when we were making terrain (well everyone else was making terrain I made a space hulk) for a huge BFG mega battle.

Ouch!



Good fleet, the painting style is very suited for Orks. And a nice Hulk you made there as well.

Personally I'm gonna start with Fafrin's article in Warp Rift. An entire fleet of Roks and a Hulk. Cheap to begin with and very slowly buying Orks ships 2nd hand.

Great job. I can't believe you did so many in one day with such good quality.

You sir, are my hero. Or maybe better: YOU ARE DA BOZZ!! :D :D Really cool fleet and really good speed painting! I painted a chaos fleet in a week and thought I had been fast!

Cheers,

Xavi
