Work in progress Ork Squiggoth diorama

[Awaken Realms]

Hello there!


Today we are sharing with you a work in progress of a diorama with a mighty, hulking through the scrapyard Squiggoth that we’re currently doing!


There will be a lot more on the model’s back. A living fortress is worthy of carrying an orkish fortress on it’s back!

Stay tuned, soon we’ll be posting a finished diorama!

Just great. Base is fantastic, the armor is very interesting color resolved. Skin and flakes amazing too. Outstanding. We are very curious to see the finished diorama ...

We’ve promised you that when the Squiggoth diorama will be finished, we’ll be sharing it with you! Now, we may finally show you the finished piece – take a closer looks at some little touch ups, such as feeding the beast or maintenance work being conducted!

It was a really fun commission, we hope we’ll have the opportunity to make more like this one!

An interesting but effective pallet. I am always impressed by your work, and I've become quite the fan of a lot of your group's paintings. Especially some of the Edge stuff you guys have painted.

One thing struck me as very cool on your shield tutorial. It seemed that the painter never wiped his brush off onto a paper towel. Yet he still had great control of the watery paint. Amazing, I don't know how he did it. Anyway, great job!!!

Absolutely stunning. Amazing diorama and fantastic colorwork. Really amazing scene, full of ideas and imagination. We examine, and we are still discovering new details and new wonderful ideas. Best work, congrats!!! MORE DAKKA!!!

A small update for you: a really big close-ups of the photos (and by “big” I’ve meant really big ). Just click at the model or open the photos in a new tab to see the high-resolution photo. That way you may see every little detail on the models! Can you spot them all?

• An ork doing maintenance work on the Squiggoth’s fortress
• The boss. The Warboss.
• A little pediciure
• Ork pain-vet paying a visit to the little beastie
• A grot almost falling down
• The “hammerhead googles” grot!
• The feeding
• A prophet of Dakka
• A chicken struck between the teeth
• A hazardous Ork Mek
• “the green sauce”

Maybe you’ve spotted something worthy of notice that is not on the list? If so, share it with everyone!

Making such dioramas is really fun! It was a special, stand-alone project we’ve really enjoyed modeling and painting. We like making dioramas so much that for every order that is above the level of 1200 GBP we’re making a totally free diorama for one, centerpiece model in the army – thus not as big and complex as that one.
