Da Ork Angelz
Welcome to the first pictures of my new Warhammer 40K Ork army - Da Ork Angelz. Blood Axes through and through, Da Ork Angelz have based their gear and taktiks on those of the ‘umies - but not any ‘umies - the Dark Angels Space Marine Chapter.
Pictured below are a couple of shoota boyz (two boyz with shots from front, side and rear) from a Taktikal Shoota Boyz Mob, currently in progress. Note the dark green armour, red weaponry and details, and bone white markings. The rest of the orginal ten boyz pack are on the way, and are pretty much a tester for the paint scheme and my painting skills. It includes another shoota, two sluggas, two ‘ard boyz sluggas, a big shoota, a rokkit launcha and a nob with slugga and powerklaw. The nob has bone white details and shirt.
The army will eventually sport Da Deff Wingz (Mega-armoured Nobz in bone white armour with red weapons and dark green markings) and Da Rav’nwingz (Warbikers and Deff Koptas in black armour with red weapons and white markings)
Thanks to a parting gift from UCB (an Ork Battleforce), the horde should continue to grow (slowly) over time…

Ugly little spuds! But I guess someone has to like them.

Good to see you’re getting back into it all :o)
You’ll have to let me know what the new rules are like (if you buy them). I’m currently very slowly building a Dark Elf Fantasy army which I play against Miles about once every couple of months. We also still play 40k, with me usually going Eldar (still) and Miles going Tau. The new Eldar codex came out recently, they’re a far cry from the first release, but still a lot of fun!
Hope you’re doing well!
