Description I love ork armour and weapony, slabs of crudely cut metal bolted and welded to each other, insanely bulky and heavy, but still with a sort of savage creativity and battle-inspired artistry. Geometric decorations and stylized gubbinz abound! Ard Boys are the near epitomy of such concepts, able to slug it out with the toughest of space marines and heavy infantry. Now if only you could build these boyz in Dawn of War: Winter Assault, I'd have some buddies for my mega armoured nobs!
Any nob knows that!

Greens iz Best! Very good work man Im suprised how well you got his legs (I usually have trouble making Orky Legs). Nice work, do you play the PnP version as well?

PnP? What is that?

thanks for the comment! I do have a secret strategy for orky legs, and its thus. I usually end up drawing them a BIT too big, too humanesque, not orklike enough, but i have a tough time bringing myself to get them right the first time
so I usually draw them on a seperate layer, select them, and shrink/squish them 10-20 percent or so. It seems to work, they are bulky but disproportionately short and small.

Draw more orks! And more Ninja Robots (I've browsed though your gallery a touch already)

Pen and Paper my friend, the original dawn of war (btw, the dawn of war novels which I borrowed from my friend (a finatic) were actually pretty good. yes theres dawn of war Novels, winter assault too).

Interesting idea with your ork legs, ill have to try it out (Im still a little new to Photoshop, only been using it for about a year, little less). over all, ive only been drawing for about 2. I hope to reach skill levels of what some of the greatest here at DA (or conceptart.org) hold some day.

And yes, more orks are needed! The green tide shall "Crush Dem all!"

oh yeah, and more ninj-bots, we always need more of them to get those damn dirty Cy-rates.
