More Cowboy Times In Space!

So while I was working on my cowboy themed Ork Stompa, I was also printing parts for another Ork unit, the Gorkanaut/Morkanaut! I had a lot of fun converting and painting this model, probably more than the Stompa because this thing is more reasonably sized and easier to paint. I'm so happy with how the giant sombrero with Grot Sniper turned out! More photos under the cut!

The belly hatch also opens so I added another Grot along with some skulls, beer, and a guitar!

And here is a size comparison of a normal Ork Boy, the Gorkanaut, and the Ork Stompa. Eventually I think I'll pick up one more Gorkanaut/Morkanaut so I have a full Lord of War detachment. I'd also like to have at least 3 Deff Dreads for this army, but those are projects for another day. Here's the list of 3d printer files I used for those interested!

Ork mecha are the pinnacle of engineering

Killa Kans and Deff Dreads? Incredible. Iconic. Make your most disposable into a killing machine twice the size of a Terminator.

Gorkanauts and Morkanauts and Stompas? Immovable. Can't tip em over. Gork and Mork are proud. Knights could never since their god is dead on a big gold toilet

The Ork Temple Gargant? Possibly the greatest machine invention to ever exist. Unsurpassed technological innovation. 10,000 Arby's car parks attached to wheels the size of Luxembourg.

Played a game at local games workshop. Lost horribly on points but did manage to grind the marines down to a single combat squad - nice!

Getting orks across the table in one piece is, I am learning, the trick. Really want my Morkanaut to arrive so I can cram my meganobs into it.

Could always stick 'em in a trukk...

PS A Warboss in mega armour is a beast, I have learnt. Snaps for this guy:

(He has an axe now, and is slightly more finished. I just think he's neat.)

I wanted to make my looted knight more orky! It kept being confused with a chaos knight.

And here we are, the best Bad Moons Morkanaut that teef can buy. I'm really happy with this; the level grit, grime and rust is much further along than all my previous attempt. But my goodness, the amount of time I watched paint dry was ridiculous. All the chipping, the oil and enamel paints needed longer dry times. Not to mention all the coats of varnish to keep the various levels of paint protected from each other.

Here’s the next project.

This month’s paint competition on DakkaDakka is ‘Suns Out, Guns Out’. Hopefully, this guy is close enough.

The new Ork rules seem fun. I haven't been keeping up with everything about 10th edition so I don't know what all the keywords mean but I'm mostly liking all the changes. Here are a few standouts that I like.

Nearly all the vehicles have at least a 6+ invul.

Killa Kans have a chance to start attacking nearby Orks (lol)

Squigasaur is still great but now I think the Beastboss on foot is super killy on his own.

Transport capacity for the Gorka/Morkanaut got increased to 12 which is fantastic.

Flash Git shooting got worse, but I like Kaptain Badrukk's new rules (they gave is radioactive gun an Aura lol) so I'm probably gonna take a unit of them.

Big Mek in Mega Armor can heal dead Meganobz!!!

Deffdreads are still good n stompy

Mek Gunz seem pretty good, especially if you have them behind a Mek Workshop and babysit them with some Mekboyz for +1 to hit.

Overall I'm very happy with what we're getting. I definitely want to try out a lot more units and start fielding more infantry again.

Gorkanaut/Morkanaut mystery

Hello, I have a mystery I think that needs to be solved.

So I recently started to build my Gorkanaut and before I put on the head I saw that there was a weird slot on the back of the head.

Looking at the instructions, there is nothing that says why it's there and looking further into the model I found that the same slot is actually on the chest.

There are 2 little slots by the hole that the weapons/light was maybe going to be fixed in place but changed at some point so they could be rotated.

The weapons/light that slot in the chest can also be put in the head maybe an idea they had before but scrapped it and left it on the model.

Would like to know your thoughts and ideas about this.
