I also fink-ing dat Iz needs ta cuts off dat green stuff plate and take a second shot at it.  I likes da idea, an da look itz juz dat piece didn’t turn out quit right

No worried, you can add some few turrets to symbolisez rivets. It's trus the scale do not allow to see them but you can add things that can suggest them.

The rest is perfect. Say hello to your mom for me.

Good deal Boss Le Fou I'z glad yer liking wot yer seeing.  Day is feeling good.  Ahhhhhh da scale, yep dis is a problem dat Iz struggled wif.  Iz finking less windows.  In order to be seen they would ave ta be uge.  I justify dis by imagining day is uge likes dat.  Big cave mouth type of fings.  Da rivits...............  Ya same problem.  I juz have a hard time stopping me self.

Our boyz sure likes build-in on dese Roks.  I’z got ta say dat day carve up all easy like.  Any of you Gitz got much experience playing wif dis styrefome? (any advice would be a big help)  Gluing fings may pose a challenge, I’z a bit in unknown territory (sorta likes being in da chow line ahead of a mob of hungry Goffs).  At any rate da project keeps slowly moving forwads.



So I gots some big shootas in place.  Problem is I got a bit carried aways.  Iz finking dat I need to remove 2 of dem.  Still when dis ere Rok lines up on yer ship it’s gonna be screaming (or betta put) you’re gonna be screaming,  Wez like it dat way, see.  Ok, ok…  I added a gunnery shak.  It’s not it’s final home.  When I adjust da Big Shootas, Iz gonna line it up closer to da Big Shootas me finks.  Notice I didn’t change dem big rivets as of yet or da big hole cover-in plate.  I’ll gets ta it.  I juz sorta got lost in da shootas and exhaust pipes.  Da Big Boss wanted iz engines an shootas moving in a propra direction furst.




Dare Boss, it’s got engines.  I’z finking dis would be a good Rok fer dim Sunz Boyz dat been racing dim fightas around our flotilla afta work periods.  I bet a good spanna wrench we finds us a right propra Kaptain dare.  I knows dis ere Rok is gonnna be a fast wun.  Ok, I needs to go in an green up around da flight stand hole.  Dis ere will make da piece more stable and tie the rear together.  Finish out da engines wif some green love too.  Getting closer, I can smell da burning burn of dem big engines.  Makes a Git all giddy.



Ere is a Port view fer ya.  Can ya sees me lil resin shak down by da chin shoota.  I’z a happy Git cause da help from me “Sac Town Lad” really paid off an nows Iz gotz more shaks dan a Git knows wot ta do wif. (any advice on cleaning da tiny resin pieces?  Day is small and fiddly.  Iz lookin at da exhaust mufflers and finking abouts how I’z gonna add some details.  I was gonna drill dem out, but I don’t want to use dat idea up to much.  Even though any Boy in his right mind goes bonkers ova mufflers all shiny and chrome like,  Ummmmmmm da 3 exhaust pipes came out a little swirly.  I’m debating if I should take another shot at dem.  It does give it some Orky flavor, but Da Big Boss isn’t your average run of da mill Ork, see.  I worry about my worky parts if E sees it an doesn’t give it iz stamp of approval.  It’s not as gravy as wun would fink being a Big Grot Mek in dis growing Waaagh.  It can get hazardious ta wuns well being.     



Ere is da ova side.  More of da same.  Work ta be done.  Da mufflers on dis side also need some love.  An Iz also finking I may need another pipe (Da Rok may lean ta da Starboard side an dat’s bad fer da shoot-in).  Wot da ya fink?  Oh I likes how dem Big Shootas pop out of da Prow.  Smile umie I’z Gotz some-fing fer ya! (like get-in a big wet lick from yer Squig Hound afta feeding it a Slacka Snot!)



Ahhhhhhh like Da 3 Big Bosses.  Da is gonna dominate their piece of da big empty.  Fink yer beekies gonna be put-in da stomp on us.  Fink again Man-lings.  My advise fer 2016 is ta pack yer bags an find another rock ta call ome.  Or just stay put and join us fer chow and lotz o fun fings wez got planned!  Ok den dat’s me fer now.  Thanks fer checking out and sharing in me project.

Great stuff... as usual. :D I wish I had your green stuff talent. BTW: What is that White stuff that you are using in all shapes and forms? That doesn't look like ordinary household scrap. Is that some kind of hobby crafting material and where do you buy it?

Thanks fer da compliment dare Boss MaWo.  MORK em-self might be asking why green stuff when wun can build in da digital space?  E's tell-in me dis is da long term plan, SEE.  Me Boyz been scoping out yer builds (betta hides dem Sheepy Squigs).  Yer making me a believer.  Nice work dare Boss........ As fer da white stuff, it's plastic card or ummmmm styrene?  Like Sculpting (3d or green) it's another art in its self dat I would love to try n gets good at someday.

Well dare Boss Le fou Dems pipe juz feels like day need som-fing.  I hit wun on da "Smash Mouth" tonight and Iz  pretty happy wif it.  Although now Iz jumped back to Shaks.  Da Big Shoota Clusta on Da Smash Mouth feels to heavy.  I'z juz finking dat I'll thin it out a wee bits like.  Den I gonna move dat dare shak closer ta da Clusta.  Dis way Dem Shoota Boyz can getz all snuggled up wif dem. Me finking.  Den add another shak or two. All Dem Loada Boys gonna needs places ta live n Fings ta do.  I see some scrap pile too. Oh n Whiskas.........

Well, been a bit since I'z been put-in ya in da loop.  Ya,gotz some of dat Imperial bitz I'z see....... Good.  So me'z guess-in dat we'z can be all a yaking aboutz itz nows! Work as been a heap slower dan normal.  Lotz go-in on so me time ta plot, plan and get ta figuring as been creeping along at a squig slugs pace.  Furst up is "Squigbeards Teef Getta" Dis ere Freebooter is a shifty Git ta say da least.  I gotta give Big Mek Blind dare in Sac Town many a big thanks cause wif out iz elp dis ere project would never ave been wot it is!  Ok, ok.......... So ere it iz already.



Ahhhhhh dare it is now!  As ya Gitz can see me bitz turned out pretty propra!  Well me n Da Boss like dem, so it works fer me! Aving Access to all of dese bitz as sure made building not only easier and less time consuming but fun wif lotz of options (or frustrating cause Iz gotz too many options).  I went back an built us up some Torp Decks and I'z got-ta say I'z pretty smiley abouts dem.  Ol' Squigbeard em self iz even showing off iz big bitters now!  So I'd say Dis job is get-ten close ta being a good-un.  I'z hope ya agree, but if ya sees some-fing dat don't sitz right in yer belly please letz me knows.



Dis ere is da ova side.  I'z gotz more bitz on it now, but don't ave a current pic fer ya.  Guess ya should a brought dem Plasma fings I was ask-in fer.  At any rate I fink dis ere build iz taking shape.  Oh an fer da record I don't ave da ram-in plate on dis ship fer da picture.  It'z over at da ova shak get-in some more ammering!



Iz real found of dis ere Rok.  Dis ere shot is early, but da feel is feel-in good.  I went from Big Shootas ta a Torp Bay on Da Prow.  Why?  Guess-in cause I love me Torp bays an dis wun ere looks like a big eye!



Ere is some progression.  I'z build-in up a lil Scrap Town and framing in sum Big Shootas.



An a Port shot fer ya,  I like wot's hap-in-in, but I'z gots more work ta do.  Oh an fer da record, Da Green Stuff binds real nice like to da Styrofoam.  It's been nice to work wif.  Well in a ammo can dats about me fer dis trip.  Comments, criticism and wot not is always a big help.   If ya want's more ya should be finking abouts bringing some propa scrap wif ya next time, see!

Looking good bud, are those front teeth pieces removeable? Torpedo clusters came out fantastic.

Thanks Lord Borak, kind words helps a git stay motivated!  Yes, Brother Blind the front bumper comes off as well as all of the turrets.  I'm trying to build with casting in mind, but it's hard to see that which you can't see.

Been dancing wif dis ere Rok.  Wot started off real good like (even gotz itz name real fast "Da Oggley Eye" (Athough now itz turning into some-fing else an will getz a new name)) ended up give-in me a rough crump-in kind a likes stealing meaty bites out of da camp soup when ya finking no gits a watch-in an den ya's gets coughed up by yer mate, see!  At any rate I was a struggling wif dis ere build.  Juz couldn't get Da Prow right (seems like dats da story of me life).  But afta scraping, sum fit throwing and lotz a name calling it took shape.  Now I'z a happy git again!  Dats juz da way of fings when yer Mek-ing about.............



Itz only gotz itz exhaust pipes fitted on wun side fer now.  I gotz a matching set fer da ova side, day just not in place fer dis ere picture.  Dis is more about itz layout an how all dem grubbins iz gonna fit in da end.  So itz sloppy rights now, but Iz gonna be fixing it up more propra likes.Gotta fill out da Rok on its sides sum more as it feel a little weedy right now.  I wanna good mix between rock and build.  Dat way when I'z getz ta throwing paint on it there is nice contrast.  Ahhhhhh Shootas, shootas, shootas.  Me finking da Big Boss gonna be smiling.  Ya see da Big Boss like iz Shootas.  I gotz a lot of green stuff work ta be doing, but again I like da feeling ere.  Ok den moving on.




Iz gotz ta clean it up.  Make it more rocky an add some plates and well get it busy.  Dem plastic card squares gonna be all plate like and da angle is a bit off over all, but stuff iz just stuck dare fere now.  I stole da helm and hab stacks from another ship, but I finking it feel more betta on dis ere ship.  I'z not too sure how much I'z gonna build up around it yet.  Again I want a lot of rocks so it feel well likes a Rok still.  Gonna be tricky cause I juz ave a hard time not adding grubbins.



Ere is a Starboard shot fer ya.  Iz still gotz a bunch of work as I work my way back, gotz ta fill da Rok out more and add some grubbins. Shootas, big plates an wot ave ya.  Sorry dese ere pictures are not so good, but I wanted ta give ya some-fing today ta eyeball az I'z real thankful fer ya taking da time ta share in me madness!  Any feed back is a heap helpful and hopefully yer working on yer Waagh too as we gonna be getting togethea fer Da Big Party!
