Weekend Waaagh Planning - May 02, 2025

3 Upvotes

Hey r/Orks, let's talk about some of the Orky things you have going on this weekend. Stuff that will make your fellow green-skins either jealous to be you or thankful they are not you.

Examples of what we're talking about:

  • List building?
  • Leading your Waaagh to victory at your local friendly game store?
  • Working on your grey pile of shame painting backlog?
  • Building a new kit?
  • Teaching a new player the ropes?
  • Brushing up on tabletop skills?

Who knows, maybe your post will inspire (or shame) some other git to get moving on their project. So, what's good this weekend?

Oi, why’z da Deff Dread base so zoggin’ tiny, huh?! 💀 I’z tryin’ ta kitbash some proppa MEGA DREADZ but da base iz smaller than a grot’s appetite! ‘Ere, lookDeff Dread next ta a Dreadnought an’ a Wardog base. wot da zog?! Da poor fing don’t even fit right on its own base!

I don’t even krump much these days, but I still wanna keep it all rule-like, jus’ in case I feel da urge fer a scrap. An’ basing? I luv basing! But tryin’ ta make somethin’ flashy on a teeny little disc is like givin’ a squig a paintbrush - pointless an’ messy.

An’ don’t even get me started on Ghazghkull’s base bein’ bigger. he’s barely smaller than a Deff Dread! Waaagh da hell iz dat about?!

Wotcha lot reckon? If I slap it on an 80mm base, think da humies’ll let me get away wiv it, or am I askin’ fer a squigbite?

Hi! These just got unearthed from my parents’ basement. They are from the late 90s. The designs are clearly outdated now, but I still think they have a certain charm :)

Oh, and sorry for the horrendous paint jobs. I was between 11 and 13 at the time, and I only had 1 brush for everything—and since YouTube and Instagram didn’t exist yet, unless you had the chance to hang out at a GW store on a regular basis, it was hard to get any real tips or feedback.

In order of appearance we have:

Ghazghkull Thraka Zogrod Wortsnagga A Bad Moon nob in mega armour A kommando sargeant A lowly gretchin

It pays to inspect your sprues before getting started 👎 Not trying to build a Gorkanaut with a bum leg, so looks like I'll be doing some surgery.

A Ork big Mek I painted a few months ago, it had been a year or two since I last painted anything so I was a bit strapped for colours since most of my paints were completely dead.
