With the guys getting back into Warhammer and me playing LOTS of Dawn of War 2, I’ve had the itch to get back into painting.

It's shooty and stabby.

So, Sam messaged me the other day and asked if there was any way I could dig out the looted Ork tank that I had been working on for him.  This was just the excuse I needed.  So I finished it up and took some pictures.  I forgot how much I loved this tank.  I can’t wait to get back into painting my own army.  I’ve got a lot of mans that need a lot of work.

I'm not sure what that stuff is, but it can't be good.

It was really fun being able to put the little Grots in the little tank doors.  If they had been plastic instead of metal, they would have been easier to manipulate and there probably would have been far more of them all over the tank.

Both sides of the tank, now suitably Orky.

This was a really freeing model to work on.  Instead of having to worry about every little piece being put together just right, I got to make it look like Orks had put it together.  The doors hang off the hinges, the edges are all scuffed up, and the painting is messy.  I love it.  Hopefully I’ll be able to find a bit more time to work on this stuff soon.

A note on the term “mans-ing”.  When we all started getting into Warhammer, we would refer to our armies as mans.  Therefore, the process of putting together and painting them became mans-ing. I know, it’s silly.  But that’s how we nerds roll.
