Hi all

This is something I have been working on with my Ozzie compatriot Steve.



This is an ork version of a real world vehicle called the Buffel... a mine-protected vehicle (MPV) used by the South African Defence Force in the Bad Old Days

The Buffel was basically a unimog chassis with a custom body and was done in lots of versions, including a flatbed one called a "moffel"



This is the kit that the orky versions are based on:



I am considering using this for my catachan army

There are a ton of other pictures here including a short video clip of the real vehicle http://nothingunpainted.blogspot.com/2013/07/buffel-moffel-mine-protected-vehicle.html

Cheers
Neal
