40 Ork Warboss by Zach Lanier

Description	:	This was my demon entry for Baltimore '06. It was a fun project for me and I got to try a lot of new techniques. The gun is pretty much scratch built, the backpack is a major modification, the left arm was heavily modified and other bits were added and sculpted here and there. The base shows a flower growing in the one spot of light allowed through by a break in the metal plate above, and a charred and burned hand on the base is grasping a second flower that was just picked.

Not a bad job, I think the fire extinguisher needs a letter to show us what type it is. That power fist would look nice with some freehand on it, and wait a moment, wasn't this one of the disquallified entries? No, it is just your usual flawless level of painting. Beautiful.

Wonderful! I love the rust, wear and corrosion. There's a really great mix of textures and effects here, all of it painted with evident skill. There's not really anything I can see to suggest for improvements!
