In keeping with posting my Orky stuff in the various forae, here's my Air Waagh!

It's led by Da Red Barrun in his "Bi-plane", it's my intention to make a mini black and white squig to go on the top wing to act as his "Snoopy" (as in "Snoopy and the Red Baron".)




Here's a few of his wingmen Fightas





Here's a few of the bigger Fighta Bomba's




More to follow.

More as promised above.

And here's one of my Grot Bombs



Some objectoves Flak and Supa Flak guns, including looted Hydras


Some Orky buildings (Evil Sunz of course)



Bombas with Grot bombs



And finally a group shot


I also have a Landa which is here



And this will be used more in my Epic games no doubt. (As will the Air Waagh in part as needed.)

Enjoy, those that haven't seen all my stuff before. For the rest of you, well, nostalgia isn't what it used to be, eh?


HG

Hi where did you get the planes you converted? Nice job!!!

Hi there, thanks.
They're Trumpeter 1/350th scale planes meant for the 1/350th scale Aircraft Carriers.
I've used US/Russian/English planes and hacked and chopped them as I thought fit!

Glad you like them.

HG

isn't one of those bombers that American spy plane?

It may be, I'm not sure now. It's not a Stealth Fighter/Bomber I know that.
Or do you mean the AWAC?

There's so many I've hacked up I can't remember! LOL

HG

I saw some of these trumpeter planes at a local shop, but I think mostly jet fighters and choppers. Gotta check.

I suppose these were WW2 planes.

Mainly I think yes, although there are several later models cut in there as well!

I didnlt stick to the plans but chose bits from all different planes to combine as I thought fit!
A real Orky approach!

HG

Well you already know I like em


Still, you are one lucky git that in AI there is no such thing as animosity-checks

I shudder to think about the effect of a 1 on this plane :

LOLOL @ Quase!

Yeah I always thought that was an amusing concept.
Guess we'd better hope they get along eh?
And the Grot turret gunners too, or there could be some interesting "un-friendly fire" going on! LOL

HG

LOL. Quite nice. How much did it cost? more or less than it would to buy the 'actual' models?

A lot less than the FW models!
I think I was buying boxes of planes between 5 and 10 depending on size, for between £5 and £10 pounds!

My whole fleet probably cost around £25, plus bases and Grot Bombs of course!

Now that's quite a bit cheaper for all those number of models!



HG

Good. I might now actually start an air-waagh based on modern fighters.

EDIT: What scale are the fighters and bombers?

They are 1/350th

For more examples, check my thread in the Epic section where I used the same planes (without mix 'n matching) for my Epic Fighta Bomba Raids

Cool. thanks for that!
