Just one corner of the fantasy games week hall. Please note the vast quantities of coffee drunk during the week! Here I work on my latest mob of Ork boyz.

PLEASE WAIT FOR THE IMAGE TO LOAD

The Ork Fight-Bomma Conversion.

 

 
You will need:
 
One 'Matchbox' model of a Bristol Beaufighter. I know their hard to get hold of but you can get airfix type models on ebay. If all else fails you could try a deHavilland Mosquito model or a P-38 at a push.
 
A mixture of arms
4 Ork heads
3 Space Marine Torso's
3 Ork Legs
2 Grots that come with the Kannon model
13 Shootas
4 Bolters
5 Space Marine Shoulder Pads
A Sharp Knife (very sharp)
Superglue
Poly Cement
A Paintbrush
Mithil Silver, Chaos Black, Midnight Blue, Boltgun Metal, Snot Green, Dark Angels Green, Blood Red, Snakebite Leather.
Thats it! (there is a god!)
p.s and It's me.
 
1) Build the Bristol Beaufighter exactly as the instructions say. Undercarriage down.
 
2) Using a Stanley knife of equivilent (no cheaply plastic snap-off-when-they-go blunt knives, get yourself a metal one!) carve out a cockpit, large enough for a shoota boy to sit in the nose of the plane.
 
3) Glue an ork head to a Space Marine torso and ork legs, uand get the Space Marine bikers hards. Position the ork so that one hand is holding on the the edge of the wing - to simulate him 'falling off'. You may need to use superglue. Use the same process but attach another Ork to the tailplane.
 
4) Using an ork without legs, place him in the cockpit, with a Space Marine shoulder pad and a shoota. Position the canopy over the top of his head.
 
5) Along the leading (front) edge of the wing position the 12 shootas - 6 on each side. Cut off the handle and glue them on this way - there is a larger surface area to stick this way.
 
6) Position 2 bolters on top of each engine housing (the hump in each wing)
 
7) If you have a Jerry Can model place it on the right side of the plane, about 2" from the tailplane on the fuselage.
 
8) Position the two grots on top of the wings - one on each side. The one holding the shell behind a suitable big shoota, and the one pointing can go between the two bolters. The torpedo underneather the aircraft can be counted as a bomb for Warhammer purposes. There are rules for this in the Armegeddon codex.
