CLINK-CLANK-CUNK

The Ork Mek Boys reveal the result of their latset tinkerings.

Arrived this morning in the post was a GorkaMorka 6 wheel Trukk:

Added to this was:

Reinforced Ram - made out of old sprues.


Wrecking Ball - Made from Foar, matchsticks & left over fantasy battle bits.

Boarding Plank - Made from nail files, matches, string & a Grotling herders claw.

Reinforced Armor Plates - Made from left over bathroom tiles.

The rest of the stuff was pieced together with more matches, the weave from the bathroom tiles, bits from some old WW2 truck and left over bits from models.

Shonky. Ork Style:

New recruits of the Black Museum

They only need to hear a few words that were written in that book that day to join the good fight. This guy Miner Artes though, knew something was up straight away and joined the 13th Irregular battalion with thinking twice.

Plastic Gasmask Heads from Maxmini, Other sandman heads Pig Iron, and metal GasMasks heads from West Wind

Take Cover!

Sandbags Bunkers are ready for use, need a little accessorizing maybe. Perfect for some Ratling sniper encampments.

Craft day

Browsing Ebay i saw some tasty bunkers, all seemed to go for about £10 a time. Cue 500 grams of  Das Clay and a couple of hours making little sandbags and bingo, two bunkers ready for the Black Museum Guard to take cover in. Looking forward to finding a moment to painting them.

Big Blast From The Past

This guy has been stomping around for years. Origionally painted last Millenium, he's been dug out of an old loft he's back to lead a new Waagh.

A bit bright for the new 'dirty' orks that'll mamke up the rest of the army. but still kicks arse.

A Trip to the Post Office

Last night I was working on this Out Of Production Necromunda Bounty Hunter. I think he makes a pretty cool Commander character for the BMD.

Ok some lazy stuff here, my first pre-stuck together, prepainted Black Museum unit. I bought this guy for £9 on Ebay. I just am not into Sentinals they aren't hard enough, fast enough or can infiltrate or do anything useful. This guy looked so badass and went for cheaper then a new unit I thought he might change my mind enough to stick my own ones together.

Now this is the best Conversion piece I have ever seen... SO MUCH CAN BE DONE WITH IT!
Is it going to be a Skull shaped Bastion that is the entrance to the Black Museum, or can I convert it to an Artillery piece, or even a Manticore style rocket platform. Either way the best 99p I have spent with 40k in mind.

Buildin' Big Gunz

Gunz Gunz Gunz.

Gotta have 'em.

The more shonky  the better.

These guys were made from 'bits left lying around'- an old battle cart here, a piece of an old ork trukk, some stereo jack plugs, cigarette filters - whatever was at hand, in true ork style.

Frakking Flamboyant Space Marines

These guys look so nice it will almost be a shame to blow them up. Sports just came round with his fledgling new Marine army, the rules of his army seems to be as frakking flamboyant as possible. He has got his hands on some of those Space Hulk Terminators too.

Rebel Guard of the Black Museum Desparadoes

Using a mixture of Cadian battleforce, Forgeworld renegade bodies, Pig Iron heads and backpacks, The Gasmasks from Maxmini.  The Miners of the Black Museum come to life on the battlefield. Dealing with Xeno and Unbeliever with the same unyeilding force. Just lucky they dug up all that old Plasma technology... Now if they can only keep it from Blowing up.

Sounds Like War

From the dawn of time, armies have marched into battle to the sound of the drum.

Today we go one step further....

Spotify Playlist - 'Music To Battle To'

(warning: included lethal sound effects- and Namby Pamby Ponsy music for the Eldar);

Gas Masks skulls and 40k keeps the doctor away.

How do you keep a bunch of unruly militant miners in check?

Wtih spindly spandex clad chicks in gasmasks thats how!

Model from Secrets of the SS

Black Museum Desperadoes

Putting together a Renegade imperial guard group. A mining colony that discovered an ancient underground city. Empowered them with the words from a book written a multiverse away about how the Empire came to pass. They fight to tell the truth that they discovered and how man lives enslaved by Emperor himself, they believe they have been told of a better way.



All the defenses of the planet were ravaged by a nasty bit of Zombitus. Instead of Conscripts the Black Museum Desperados have Zombies that they herd towards the enemy.

Welcome to a whole world of geek

I got a new camera, making even the most shoddily painted figures look badass.Got a Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7 bought an extra copycat battery as well. Be warned they no don't work as Panasonic has updated their software to scupper them. Means you have to pay £40 for an extra battery... Grrr but spent fortunes on stupid tanks anyway.
