So far I've just kind of been randomly acquiring things based on what looks cool to me in the moment when I see them in a store, which feels like an appropriately orky way to build an army, but I figured I should maybe start applying a little kunnin to my burgeoning WAAAGH
So where would yooz gitz go frum here?
I'm thinking a box or two of gretchin will probably be my next acquisition, which leaves me with 200-some points to fill
EDIT: Based on comments here and a bit of googling, I think I'm looking at getting
2x10 grots
1x Beastboss on squigosaur
1x10 Boyz
Which will get me to 975 points, good enough for me

This is what I do, hasn’t done me wrong. If 82 dudes with jump packs is wrong then I don’t give a fuck what’s right.
Not too familiar with orks, but gretchin look to be a good add for some objective capturing and blocking fodder, maybe grab something to hold your home objective. All depends on if you’re looking to capture points and grab mission objectives, or if you’re looking to play accurate to the lore and just drown your opponents in the WAAAAAAAAGH! There are no wrong answers.
2x10 grots is definitely a good choice. You can get a beadtboss on squigasaur for the squighogs to get a really high treat blob. Getting some basic Ork Boyz is also always good if you are getting into orks. Eventually you will want more trukks and a warboss. But getting what you vibe with is definitely the general best way to go.
There are also a couple Ork discords you can join if you want.
Grots are always a useful addition.
What to suggest next really depends on whether you're looking to build a specific force (e.g. green tide) or have fun with whatever takes your fancy.
Mostly just looking to have fun, not planning to get super competitive about it, just trying to have a good time fucking around with some little green dudes.
I'm about 75% in it for the painting, but I wouldn't be able to justify the cost of minis to myself if I wasn't playing the game too.
