More Boyz for the Mob

 
More Boyz for Waaagh Scrivs were completed over the past few days with another two units added to the warband.


Some heavy hand-to-hand hitters in the form of 10 Beast Snagga Boyz. Led by a Nob with Power Snappa, eight Orks with Shoota and Choppa and an Ork with a Thump Gun.

They are great models with some excellent details, each one is draped in the hide of some great beast and the figures are festooned with "teef" and glyphs. 


The Beast Snagga's are an equal opportunities mob, physical disability is no bar to membership, most of the figures have bionic limbs and eyes and there are signs of lobotomies and many scars from hideous wounds.




I liked painting these so much that a second box has already been purchased.

Having got a couple of games under my belt, I've come to the realization that if you are going to use Grots in your Ork force then you should go big or go home, so a couple of packs of Grots were bought and added to the force.



These Grots are certainly grotty models, the finish on the raw models is like a cheap plastic toy and there are loads of mould lines to be cleaned up. But, after a extended cleaning they do seem to come out ok.








There are not so many areas on these Grots for me to go nuts with the rust theme, but, I've added it where I can. 

Once the additional unit of Beast Snaggas are painted this will bring my Ork Mob nicely up to 1000 points with a few options for force selection. But, as I've so far only got one HQ choice, no Elite choices and only one each of Heavy and Fast Attack choices to go with the six troop choices I can see a few other bits and bobs being added.
