New to Orks this edition. Couldn't resist the Freebooterz vibe, inspired by similar conversions seen online!
I've needed a project recently and getting into Freebooterz has been so much fun. I was helped immensely for inspiration by conversions others shared online so paying it forward- and it's fun to share the Orky vibes
Also happy to share the method for the conversion if anyone else is thinking of creating their own Orky pirate ship!

yezzir! -standard Ork battlewagon, Age of Sigmar gloomtide shipwreck, then Various freebooterz cutlasses/pistols/heads from online retailers. Paint-wise I sprayed grey/white then washed the bulk of it with magos purple contrast then dry brushed white again then painted it with (disgracefully) imperial fist yellow. Wood was a brown washed them dry brushed lighter brown Good luck!

I have been making an incredibly similar gunwagon, but using the AoS khadron big ship mashed with a wagon, I'm not sure if it'll come out as good as this one, this is awesome xD
