WWPPII - The Big Green Reach Around - Update list on pg. 1

[Nekron99]

I would like to announce the Waryammer World Painting Project II,

or, as I have affectionately come to call it, "The Big Green Reach Around". It garners this nickname because we will be painting Orks from the Assault on Black Reach Box Set and making Waryammer into WaaghYammer!

Here's how its going to work:

1. Obtain an Ork item from the Black Reach set (Boyz, Coptas or Nobs)
2. Paint the Zoggin' Runt
3. Put 'em in da box
4. Mail it already!

Here's why I picked Orks:

1. These minis are everywhere, and that makes them cheap!
2. They're plastic, so postage will be less since the box will be lighter,
3. Ive seen some of your paintjobs, and they would look great on Orks!
4. I scored a bunch of boyz online, and I am willing to send you one if you dont have/cant find one.
5. I think we should have a gang of Orkz representin the Boyz (And the token Gurl) on the Yam

How easy is that?

There may be a few details to work out, but thats the basic deal. The plan this time is that there will be a painting contest when its finished and the winner gets the box. Ill mail the box as soon as we have a working list, and we can get this moving. Hopefully it wont take two years this time!

So if you would like to participate, reply below.

Bring me in a model tomorrow. Maybe it'll get me some motivation to get back into this. I did a quick looksee online as I know NOTHING about "the Green Skins". I was only inspired by the "Snakebites". As Warpaint and Tattoos struck a cord with me. Maybe being born in the Year of the Snake has something to do with it, or that I'm cold blooded and surly in the morning. I'll jump in and give it a go.

DA YAAMUH IZ FULL UV BLOOD AXE BOYZ!
I knowz cuz I iz one, and I haz over 200 uv 'em....
... we gots lotsa armie boyz 'ere, and dey knowz grand straturgiez. Dey uze kammo and got da know-wotz..
..az such, Yammer will be Blood axey.... just like Rex "Dakka" Talon....
Remembah though, a WAAGH can conzizt uv many klanz... but 'dey don't trust wun annuver all 'dat much....

[Kilcin]

I voted Deathskullz since we have so many members that love to scavenge for various odds and ends from other kits to get their awesome personal projects going! Funny at this time of posting their is 4 votes, 1 for 4 different clans...

I'm in; I was planning on selling off the Orks from the two box sets of AoBR that I have, but I would rather use them for this project. With that said, I'm willing to mail Orks to people that want to participate but don't want to or are unable to buy Orks themselves (crummy economy!). Just send me a PM, note though my Deffkoptas are already given to a friend.

'Erez da rundown:
Bad Moonz- Tend ta be da welffiest gitz around, wit da best e-kwipment. 'Dey like da dakka, and tend ta be flashgitz or shoota boyz. Nobz always 'ave da best gear, like mega armor. Nazdreg iz frum diz klan.
Blood Axes- Tend ta be smartur den da rest, and will leave da battul if they ain't winnin. "best ta fight den run away, so's yah can come back and SQUISH DEY BRAINZ IN WIV MORE BOYZ!" You tend to see them more in the ranks of Kommandos... dey sneaky and not truztwurvvy.Lotsa Stormboyz from dis klan too Snikrot and Zagstrugg are frum dis klan.
Goffs- No nonsenze gitz dat love krumpin. No stratergiez except get in 'dere and bust skulls. Thraka is frum this klan.
Snakebites- Dey don't trust tek too much. So dey tend to rely on boyz more den anyfing elze. Ya see a lotta nutterz comin frum 'dem. Weirdboy psykerz is about all 'dey 'have. Not sure if Zogwort came frum dis klan....
Deathskullz- Lootaz galore. Dey iz fairly superstitious as well. THe color blue signifies luck in the Ork kulture, and it's their main color. Lootas, looted wagons.. really anything with the word "loot" is because of them...
Evil Sunz- Wuz forgotten in dis.. But I won't forget 'um! Dey got da wheels, and they like ta go fastah! Lotsa flyboyz come frum 'ere. I mean, aktual pie-lotz... Red wunz go FASTAH!

[Prophet]

I wiff Billybob on da Blood axe boyz. But if we iz suppoze ta paint a git up to be reprezenten ourselveze should 'dey be reprezenten our screenamez? Eiver way I iz wit dis all 'de way tru!

[RexTalon]

Well, I'm an actual Pie Lot, and I'm in the AF, so I guess I have to go with the last one, but I'm flexible because I really don't care.

Wait, do we all have to do the same clan?

EDIT: The more I think about it, the more I want to do an orky pilot. Can I convert one and have someone else paint it?

[Karadek]

I'm in. I voted Goff since they're the clan I always played in Epic.

[Nekron99]

Y'know, after I look at it, the klan that represents us all is ALL Klans. So since there is a Motley Crue of different types of folks here on the Yam, there might as well be an assortment of Orks in the Kult of Yam.

We need a name for the gang. Thoughts?

[RexTalon]

Maybe we should poll Tim for a name?

[Tyggrr65]

How about "GobStoppahz" for short "Gobbahz" or since it's the Yam "Taterz". It's all I got.

[Prophet]

I wuz dikkin "'De Yammers" an haff ta symbol be a big ol Grim wit da lower jaw gubbins.

[IraShaine]

I will play. Send it to me first i am the closest.
