Gerork - Just a regular ork from the G squad




Right, so for plenty of good reasons, I haven't got to sit and paint a model in a while so I took the opportunity to fix that this week !
This felt almost awkward after nearly two months so I decided to paint an ork because they're one of those happy places.
And because I wanted it to be festive I picked the most stupid ork I had in my collection : an ork farting in his hand /scratching his butt (never decided which it was).
For the colours, I just picked the same colours as all my boyz so no brainer. I did paint the bolter in a very Red era style though, simply because I wanted to paint red. ^^



Now this guy is probably not going to te be alone and he might get friends in the future, a special unit I can't quite speak of now but let's call it the G squad :


Oh yes, the G Squad...


Let's let him play with his friends for a bit before some more fun !

  3. Great work--a triumphant return. And, bolters should always be red.

    1. I'm not sure I'd paintthem all red but every now and then there's a good opportunity to paint them that good old red. ^^

    2. I guess not all bolters need to be red. There are Blood Angels after all who would look a bit funny with red bolters ;)

  7. Nice! I don't remember the guy with the big water cooled machine gun. G squad looks like it will be fun. (I had to fight not to type G-Force.)

  9. To add a third possibility: maybe he's sat on a cold bench and he's stood up to check if it was just a cold bench or if was also a wet bench.

    Forging narrative!

  10. Ce choix de langage du corps un peu cruel le fait malheureusement passer pour un gland alors que le sculpteur a réussi à faire passer tant de vivacité d'esprit dans ces boulettes de greenstuff qui lui servent d'yeux... Bref bon choix de sujet pour ton pinceau, malgré tout je te félicite, j'espère qu'il y en aura d'autres :D

  12. It is so hard to get back to the table after a few months off . . . and I find I am ALWAYS in that place. (Two gobbos on my table right now for exactly that reason.) Nicely realized sir, and good luck reigniting the . . . mojo. Maybe give him a hand flamer? Pointed back, else he end up carrying your own nick?

    1. To be honest, I've only had a few pauses hobby wise over the last years so I've never had to regain mojo like this. I do tend to exhaust myself on big projects but completing them usually pays off in the end. ^^
      I've always find treating myself with reward models every now and then keeps the enthusiasm high !
