Thank you all.
@ Grim, thank you, playing a trick I hope here.
@ Waaazag, thank you, and thats great, kinda what I am after.
@ Red, Marv was a great experience, did it for a competition. Got no hope in that one the others are well out of my league, it is mainly a painting competition.
@ Anpu-adom, Thank you
Well here is a little update for you, at least on what I may post.
A little fluffy bit....
Irvy da Mech looked at the derelict and shook his head. It was a wreck from a long time ago, not even Imperial. He would not even bother using it at all. But the huge chest of Teef , he had from Sniggar da Runtherd said he would pimp out this wreck for the grunts to keep up with the boys in.........
Interior finished.
Thanks for dropping in, please feel free to comment.

Nice little tank/transport/thing.
You're getting very good at those recessed rivets.
Nice interior too.

Brilliant work on Marv, great blend of Ork and Miller Nice job with the coat.
Transport coming on nicely - although I don't like how fast you do these things Interior looks great, agree with GrimDork on the lighting
Although a little disappointed as from this shot .....
.....I thought you were going to build a Tron-mobile

Those rivets are looking better and better and I really like the bottlecap turrets

Stealing those turrets in one form or another, it's too clever.

Those turrets look like they need a little substance under them. The shelves don't look like they could support a functioning turret. Paint job is awesome, though.

The shelves support the turrets because the Orks *believe* they'll support the turrets.
I really like the look of your recessed rivets. I'm going to have to invest in a nail punch.
Oh, and Marv is outstanding.

Thanks guys, and I might look into strengthening the shelves.
For now the back door just about sorted, will see about the mechanics of it next..
Oh and this for the front, you know as some kind of fender/bumper.
Thanks for looking by.

Update time, did a bit of work on the Grot APC.
Not finished yet, need to sort out if I am putting a turret on it or not, and got to put a framwork on the back door to look like it has been strengthened.
The thoughts here are that under normal use this vehicle would be a heavy transport, say 20 guys, but for grots 30 seems reasonable.
Thoughts on the subject are appreciated.
Heres some shots of how she sits at the moment..
Thanks for looking in.

Good job, Cam. Liking the orkifying of it.
That's quite a large hole inside the door for someone to trip over?
Nice rust, graffiti, and hazard stripes.

Been far to long since I have been here. Sorry, I been distracted.
Firstly thank you for your amazing comments.
Been working on a little something, taken a few days to get together anything worth showing.....
So, my thinking here, Combined effort really. I have wanted to do a proper Warboss for ages. I have done Warbosses, but my true Warlord supreme is Thunderfarter. this is his Third incarnation. So here comes Thunderfarter da Turd....
Now part of this is looking at the models out there, not many represent to me a true image of a Warlord, someone who rules absolutely by physical power and presence, the codex describes him as 10ft of brute power. Capable of ripping people apart with there bare hands. Now this puts in my head a true horror, massive, powerful, brutal. Now don't get me wrong, Ghaz is a great model and big and brutal, but not what I want. Thunderfarter may end up with armour, maybe even mega-armour, but I am going to do at least one incarnation with hardly any armour, charging in to battle fearless and terrorfying.
Made a mold, to make more if I need.
A bit more....
He will be about 45-50mm tall all in, by my calculations thats about 10ft, true-scale.
Any and all comments and thoughts and ideas are most welcome here.

Thank you guy's, means alot.
@ LDD Sorry, put some strides on him now....
I know his forearm is a bit long, but when I decide what I am doing for his hands will cut accordingly.
I know also the basic is a bit nude, but I figure if you want it to look right, you start from there, and got to say I think his Arse end looks better for it. This way I could change out the clothing, make him Fantasy, Make it armoured. At least I am not bulking out over clothing that is already there.
Anyways, as it happens I am on a sicky, dying of manflu, so am chaining myself to me workbench and enjoying my last few moment of life......
All thoughts and critique are gratefully recieved as always..
