Hi folks. It's finished-ish (depending on helpful C&C )

This is my third vehicle - so I'm still learning. Always wanted to loot a Leman Russ, but as its my first heavy konversion I kept it pretty simple.

[Here's my second vehicle - a battlewagon - if you're interested: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/448310.page]

I think it looks great I personally would add a few extra plates to cover up the supposed damage caused during the "smash-and-loot"... unless they simply sneaked in and stole it ;P
Good job on the painting as well

thanks =)

Congratulations on a very orky tank, the little orky bits on it give it nice splashes of color and I like how the paint on the tank has that faded look, good work, hope you manage to kill many emperor lovers with it

thanks folks

Pretty nice lookin mash up there. Checkers look good with out being too straight, plenty of holes and stuff out of place, grots....check, Orks...check...jobs a good 'un. the flames on the main gun are my fav part. Well done man.

the flames we're an afterthought. I hadn't done any before but I'd been naughty & left a mold line right in the middle of the barrel so had to do something! Glad it paid off!

That is only your third painted vehicle?! Holy poop man, that looks great!

Dat looks ded Killy!
Helpful C&C?
Paint all your other models like this.
Well done!

A very cool model. Gives me some inspiration for my own looted russ that still needs some orky stuff going on

This makes me want to go back to my Ork army; a brilliantly executed conversion followed by a complementary and equally fantastic paint scheme.

If you plan on looting any other vehicles, have a go at bludgeoning them with a blunt object, then fixing them back together as best you can with ork bitz. It's great fun, and with skills like what you demonstrated here, you should be able to pull it off pretty nicely.

thanks for the encouragement & ideas guys! really appreciate it!

I've got two more trucks, one more battlewagon, and a looted basilisk to model& paint, then I'll be all done .... .... for a while 8-)

I love the checkers, I really like how suddle your conversions are and yet thy still look amazing. The paint scheme was done very well, it looks really great.

=)
