RT Ork Dreadnoughts

New guys today, being part of the Rynn's World Campaign.

This one appeared in WD#94, as the leader of the Ork forces for the Jadeberry Hill Battle: Ulruk of Mergabenurga, the albino Ork.

 

Albino Ork. These were the things that happened in RT

 

According to the background, this vicious Ork was a serious threat and he had to look really ugly. I tried to represent a vitiligo affection rather than a complete white Ork. Maybe I shouldn't had tried, as it's tricky and quite difficult to represent in a realistic way, but it was fun and challenging.

But I told you I there were Dreadnoughts today. I wanted something 'scenic' for this one:

 

Wait, didn't you say it was a Dreadnought? What's going on here?

 

Oh, you meant that Dreadnought!

Hulk Smash!

Aaaaaagh!

And this tiny can has a little brother:

 

Paler, but equally effective

 

I decided that they had of course to look shiny and bright, as they are meant to be for a Rogue Trader era Ork army. The white colour scheme was funny to choose; I did not want a generic 'black dread' (another one) as everybody has. I thought it was worth it to risk myself with some brighter colour. I think it fits it reasonably well and it's a change for good.

Cheese!

It was enormously fun painting these models, I enjoyed a lot during the process, as I do with every piece from that era.

But, as you can imagine, this is not the end of the RT project. You will have more soon... Soon...
