Looks like I’m back after a bit of a hiatus/rest/blogging burnout. We’ll start with posting the last few models of 2023 and then the next couple of posts will be catching up to the present moment of mid-February. So here as have a couple of metal Space Orks from the opening months of Rogue Trader’s release back in 1988. I’d planned to get these done for Orktober 2023 but they got finished in early November. Well, I say finished. I just did the tufts yesterday – but the painting was November so I’ll call these last year’s models because that’s when the hard work was put in.

I painted them with desert-themed camouflage as well as orangey-brown quilted armour as a nod how I always painted this kind of armour back in the day myself. I’ve still got a fair few of these old classic metals to get painted and they’re definitely in the queue, just not at the front right now. I do look forward to getting all(!) of my old Ork metals painted and finished in 2024. Let’s cross our fingers there…

See you tomorrow with the next bit of catch-up!
