Three new Iron Squig pattern Killa Kans, including the fabled Orkparatus of Kwalish. |
The fabled Orkparatus of Kwalish - so called because the goofy claws remind me of the Aparatus of Kwalish from DND. |
I may need to retouch the older Killa Kans to match these newer ones - my vehicle painting technique has evolved a bit. |
Ooo look - an engine. |
The mighty chainsaw jaws of this one are made from a pair of Killa Kan CCWs. |
I've kept the grotzookas basically stock, I rather like them. |
Ah, periscopes. How I love them. |
I rather like this one's crazy bug-eyed look. |
Gnash, gnash, gnash it goes. |
This is really the only one with a face. A very buck-toothed, crazy face, but a face none the less. |
Time for Meganobs - this is the chap featured in MFH 25. |
His engine is probably the simplest, but I rather like the shape of it. |
There's really not much you can do with the posing of the killsaw arm from the nobs box. This is about as dramatic as it gets. |
The right-hand kill saw is from a Mantic kit. |
Ah, exhaust stacks. What ork could bring himself to leave home without them? |
The other killsaw-ist. |
He does not appear to be friendly. Happy, but not friendly. |
This is probably my favourite of the engines. |
Ah, the ork who started it all, and continued it by looking like Claptrap... |
Behold his mighty engines! |
And how his mighty klaw shadows his mighty face! |
Here we see all four together, and I am reminded that I really want to have about ten of them... |
Here's a closer shot of the mek himself. |
I really do love jeweller's chain... |
To help him blend with my bikes, he's fitted Winged Huzzork wings to his squig. |
Note kustom forcefield projectors made, as always, from wire wrapped around tubes with domes on the ends. |
The mighty Power Hammer. No rules can encompass it's glory, so it's just a choppa... sigh... |
The rider was painted separately from the squig, and the two only glued together about an hour before these photos were taken. |
Once more, the kind of face only a mother, or a mek could love. And since orks are fungus, and have no mothers, this is a good thing, or no one could love it. |
