Adrian’s Birthday Nobz
Adrian re-started his GW hobby before I did, but has had a hard time finding time to do painting… so I decided to help him along as it’s his birthday next week. He’s started collecting Orks, but giving them a Dark Angels theme : “Da’ Ork Angels”
So what better conversion that adding actual Dark Angels bits from the Veteran sprues onto some Nobz; plus it let me try my had at Deathwing colours as well as ork skin 
I just want to say - these are awesome! And thanks of course! They are huge too - larger than the ork nob I am working on from the plastic boyz kit.
I really appreciate the effort you went to to follow the theme I am going for. The Dark Angels bits worked out better than I had imagined (and I thought I had imagined pretty good!) The paint scheme clashes a bit with my existing boyz - these guys are grittier where mine are more clean cut and cartoonish. I had been a bit worried about that previously, so I think for my next batch I’ll aim for something down the middle - which should mix well with both.
The worse thing is that its making it harder for me to put off elaborate customisations…
Big thanks again!
Adrian
You’re welcome
I had fun putting them together. Not sure I’ll be doing cream again in a big hurry though
[...] I have managed to start basing the miniatures Paul gave me for my birthday and have some more of my own with there base coats complete. I needed some bike bases - so a Games [...]
Wow!
These look great! - Fantastic job! Just a pity I probably won’t get the chance to kill any of them :o(

I’ll try my best to do that for you when we’ve both got workable forces
