Subject: Ork - Scratch built and Converted models (and some Chaos)
He is currently working on a Super Grot Tank.
I had the pdf for the 'experimental' Forgeworld rules which i sent him. But i believe that there is now an official version in one of the newer Imperial Armour Apocalypse books.
I guess that as its a model you buy from Forgeworld as a kit, that the visual weapon loadout is exactly the same? How can it be any different?
I doubt he is bothered at all by any changes that effect gaming. Just any details to how it will look.

No problem mate I like the rest of the model, I just think you could do something better yourself with your skill

Cheers wazz! That is nothing short of magnificent! Beautiful piece to "go out on" if indeed your new job prevents you from modeling the way you'd like.

well after spending all day reading through this thread ... i do think i am on information overload!
Now to figure out what i want to try to make first ... I only casually play 40k ... and to me looks come way before what is actually part of the game
I do beleive the first thing on my plate is going to be doing something with all these defkoptas i have sitting around my worktable .. to bad 3 of them are glued together. i have always wanted to make them into bikes or some small 4-wheelers (not quite buggy sized) ...
Now to check and see what sort of supply my LGS has on styrene before i order online.
Wazz'er mate i hope this is not your 'last' model? why doe's it have be? maybe fit a few hours in after work? and then there's weekends, you may knock out less! lol but it will still BE quality.
