Someone call an ambulance, I think im having a Heart attack!!!

Just fricking WOW wazzoo.... Its just awesome.

Yeah, I'd say those prices are resonalble.... Did you consider putting it up on ebay?

I'm close to doing it, but people who go on eBay including myself use it for the cheap ness of it, so even tho I feel I'm quite cheap, I don't think eBay buyer will pay what I want, plus eBay take 10%.

So I'm not sure about eBay yet, I get asked to do commissions about 2 times a month, funny thing is tho, 50% of the people asking are 10 to 16 years old and have no idea what cost and time goes in to these models, then when you say "£100 for that mate" not knowing there age, they never reply back lol

E-bay might work if you did a load of those buggies, that way yo could produce say 6 at a time and see how well they sell

I have bought a few conversions of ebay through my years, these days I would rather do it my self plus now a days I have the wallet contents of a 10 to 16 year old …… or as I said before a cheap bastard LOL

I think your best bet would be make a few models that you like to build, then show and tell them here with the interest to sell, that way it could be like market research.

I would like some of those buggies you did, but I think the price might be a bit high for me


Glad the little man is doing well and glad to here he is being railroaded into this craft, pushy parents you have to love them LOL

Put em up on Ebay but factor the 10% into the cost... it still may reach more customers. Obviously not the ones interested in cheapness, but who knows, somebody with a boatload of cash might want to build a huge cool-looking ork army

Here you go guys, a commission I'm doing for a friend i know here in the UK, this is my trukk mark II, i will have 3 basic shapes of trukks by the time i finish, trailer will be made soon, hope you all like.









and before you all ask, im not giving him mates rates, like i said, if i do it any cheaper, then i would almost be free hahahaha

Oh my god, that thing is going to e epic! My plasticard attempts are lousy in comparison, I guess I'll have to print out some pics of your work and spread them on my desk for inspiration....

I think you inspired me to build a scratch-trukk army!

found this at the car boot sale, 50p, ill convert it later and post a pic

Beautiful work on the semi... going to be spectacular!

Awesome work as always. Tempting, soooooo tempting....

WIP

Clean work mate nice , have to ask what do use for cutting circles in PC if you don't mind sharing

Oh wow!! All of this is awesome, great work on the conversions and the painting, I'm digging all of it!

And.. I want to see more!

Not sure on the look of this trailer yet or what guns to put on it.

Do I go weapon platform ??

Big guns ??

Lots of small ones again ?? (bair in mind I've done that already)

Oooo what do I do ??

I would go transportation for most of the trailer, then add some small side railings with panels ( your specialty ) then a gun section at the front of the trailer with two machine gun sponsons either side and a massive gun in the middle

This way you can transport that tank once converted Now how do you cut your circles and what tool do you use please

Just too damn awesome. I'll be checking this thread a lot now

looks like a good starting point for a big gun platform if you ask me and I really love your work very cool.

Plus I love the ideas you are giving me for my orks very good mainly I know what to do with all these freaking deff koptas

lone dirty dog wrote:Now how do you cut your circles and what tool do you use please

i draw around some thing or use my compass, i then trim and file.

Fantastic work all the way through this thread. Thanks for sharing your awesomeness

Regarding Da Artik, can you fit your buggies on the back of it? You could do a Knight Rider style mobile Mek Workshop. Alternatively you could probably fit a battery of Orky Artillery on the back of the thing like a land-bound Spectre. It might even be usable in-game if you did that

Cheers for the feedback on that , well I have to say you do a dam good job using that system.

When I try that way it no longer looks like a circle anymore LOL

You can use a compass with a pin on both ends, then you just score it and then snap it and file, most plastic card is easy to score and snap.

not your coulor sheme though, so It might not be yours.

Ok guys, WIP.

Doing a back ram plate thingy, so what ever it is, it looks kool and like its going to kick ass


The bits i've ringed, are just supports, the way i've made these one just make it stronger when i stick it to the back of the trailer, the bars move freely too, so it can move up and down, makes it easy for painting and looks good, like i new what i was doing with it. (i don't think it serves a purpose)



when i drilled the Deffkopta rotor blades i started in the number order, i drilled number 1's, all 5 at once, so the line was straight. i held them all together then drilled number 3, then last of all i drilled number 2, i always drill with my smallest drill and the build up to the drill bit the same size as the bars i'm using. Then one by one, starting in the middile, i glue them in place with a very small amount of glue. (dont forget to put a bracket in there if you want it to move up and down, DONT glue this.



then i stuck it on, making sure it moved right, nice movement up and down.





This pic is showing the bracket that i made to look like a piston that would push it up and down if it was real, i think it looks ok, but i would re-do it if i was to start again, but hell its ok for this one

I know its pricey, but I would use the trailer to transport some Kanz to the front. Have some grotz strapping and chaining some Kanz down for transport would look great. Besides, when it comes time to unload, all the driver has to do is slam on the breaks and cut the wheel hard! No fuss.

Love your work! I have seen your tutorials before, I plan to make some weapons using your technique. Also, My WIP Battlewagon is going to get a Deffkopta Pilot for a driver!

Sorry for the little threadjack, but I gotta share this here so the master of converting can have a look at it..... You work inspired me to get plasticard and start working with it. The rear part of this is my first plasticard attempt!

Also, remember when you commented on the unpainted version of this in the gallery a few months ago? That comment made me look at the models of its creator, and I loved them! I think I even told him to start a P&M blog LOL

hahahaha seen this a while ago, thought i said i liked the new paint job, makes the model look so much better, i am copying that next, but adding another trailer with it hehe

Ok more WIP, hope you like

on this pic, you can see the guard rails on the side, it also show's the nice low profile i'm trying to keep, as i think it looks good, feel free to take this pick and photoshop what you think i should do and repost it, i still cant make my mind up. i am thinking tho of a tank turret at the front with a 360 turning circle, then 2 sets of dakkadakka's on the back, what do you guys think ???


this is the side rails again, i really do like these, im not going to put any more armour on them, like the last trukk n trailer.


the under belly, thought i would do some detail here, so put in some brake cables and on the other one, more armour plates, did this quick so its not great.



this one is just showing the air brake cable, one more to bang on yet.

Thanks wazzoo! Feel free to make one! I didn't think about it before, but it could make a pretty good Ork walker, too big for a Kan, too small for a Stompa, but I know there are in-between ones, I just can't think of them.

Dam, this looks epicified, very cool very original

Holy Crap. Awesome stuff per usual. Your attention to detail is phenomenal. Please make more!

Duuuuude, that air brake cable is an AWESOME touch! That whole trukk will be more than epic when its done!

These trailer rigs are just awesome.

Amazing work and lovely attention to detail.

im doing a big gun, and O.M.G !!!!!! its epic !, i'm dying to take a pic and show you guys, but you will have to wait, sorry.

Fantastic job with the cables man!
Can't wait to see the BIG GUN on that thing.

Basically not much to look at the moment I am afraid this was an old WIP, has moved on but not much though.

I was going for a cross between a galleon meets a tanker get it I have moved the back back a bit and added some basic sides but thats about it

Love that ldd... you have pirate orks to go on it? Some Flash Gits perhaps?

Waz, great work fella, Oh and congratz on the your new arrival. Keep up the great work, youre an inspiration.

Man I'd love to know how you build the cabs of those trucks, they are fantastic

I have just read and looked through the entire blog and let me tell you, You are AMAZING, WIP is your calling in life....

i really like this, i was ask to do a commission on some thing close to this, but i was going to use 2 stompa's and my basic shape, and make it like a airship, close to my one.

but this is what i would do with what you have, see the pic below.


always room for more Dakkadakka's.

Well, pretty close to my vision and like the idea of the dakkadakka port holes I will use that idea, I had the idea of a large cannon on the front platform , was going to use a FW one but decided to scratch build my one.

The only issue is the portholes will be in line with the tracks ( it has altered slightly since this photo ) which would not make sense so I have to alter the side section to accommodate these but I have a plan for that.

The back section is totally different to what you have envisioned, as a little bit of alteration has happened there as well, but I am hoping this will look good in the end.

Thanks for the input always good to get some one else's view and seems lIke I am on the right track

Land-ship! It's awesome, but you knew that before you posted it.

ok boys and i think girls, here is mark II trukk and trailer, not yet painted.

















hope you like

I dont like it ………… I LOVE IT miles better than I thought it would have turned out

Really good job and so looks the part, great use of bits

That is bad ^&* I love it. Might have to try and do something like that here soon.

100% Awesome!! That is just insane...

Fantastic stuff!

I've recently joined DakkaDakka and I must say, seeing your work is one of the reasons I decided to join. Much easier to follow the latest builds.

Absolutely mindblowing mate!

Waz the truk big gun looks ace. but i cant help thinking that the trailer base needs some supports for the big gun barrel for use in transport.

So much detail and character. Now where's my jaw gone?

Awesome work - again! Thanks for the close up of the gunner too - interesting way to fit a regular Ork's legs in the cupola - it's hard when Ork legs and hips are so wide...

that is incredibly impressive work. one random thing that jumped out at me is that the guard rail on the back of the trailer doesn't seem very orky. they don't strike me as the safety-minded type :p

awesome stuff. subscribed!

Almost enuff dakka... almost.

mmm, i think you have to add some support on the transporter, cause it can happend the truk can be separate from it (if not in the game, in real) to move freely.

something like this

Interessing! really curious to see it!

Dam... Thats the definitiion of an epic battlewagon

This question has probably been answered already, but all of the texture you put on the plasticard, what is it from? I think some is cardboard? Not quite sure...

It's all plastic card

Beautiful build sir!

This is OFF THE HOOK !

Normally i only lurk these blogs. But here i just have to comment. This is definitely the best stuff ive ever seen. There are no words to describe how awesome this is.

thanks

Subbed! these are awesome!!... Gonna dust off my orcs I think.

wait... not the bolts and stuff, but the bumpeis that go on industrial flooring. those little ridges that are all criss-cross. how are those plasticard.

You are thinking of diamond-pattern, right?

yep all plastic card

I never usually read awesome ork vehicle blogs, because it makes me want to convert all of my models to looted ork stuff.

here you go, a quick Commission i did (its wasn't that quick btw)










This is one of my fav's now, can't wait to paint it

Great stuff as always. Big 'n' brutal, just as it should be.

As it's a comission will it be getting a different paint job to your usual?

Really really impressive work on the trucks. I look forward to seeing it painted up.

I've made 2, this one is my own, the other was sent off this morning, I should of said really, I'm not very clear am I

Ha, it looks great, I love the design. And awesome plasticard and scratchbuilding work, as always!

Thats fething awesome. I convert some wagons and trukks myself, but that is a piece of art. I salute you, sir.

You sir have some real skills there! I'll be following this thread for sure!

Hmmm...

You should do an ork garbage trukk. With an extremely lethal garbage crusher in the back...

Death dread I have planed in my head, but am looking at doing a big airship type aircraft carrier thingy mi bob.

some thing i thought you guys might want to see, "THIS IS NOT MODEL RELATED" just abit of fun

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZ83pD8xEms&feature=plcp

Looking great Waz! That trukk is fantastic.

thx

here you go guys, got a deathdread thingy, thought it needed to be converted, so made it so haha, hope you all like.








tell me what you think, i'm still not sure about the base, but i love the lean it give the model, was trying to make it look like it was stepping into a trench.

It's very lanky, but I think that it suits it. I also love the assault cannon. Maybe if you put a guardsman underneath it, cowering in horror, it might make it more believable that it is a trench. Other wise it looks awesome

I love it, but the legs need to be beefed up a bit. There's just too little structure there to believable support what's above. Some extra armor at the least to give it the impression of being more massive in the legs.

Gitsplitta wrote:I love it, but the legs need to be beefed up a bit. There's just too little structure there to believable support what's above. Some extra armor at the least to give it the impression of being more massive in the legs.

Well, if the Mek told them the legs would hold the body up, it would right?
But I like it all! The legs do look rickety, but I like it.

I love the spindly legs. It has a cartoony touch to it, which I think works with Orks.

RSJake wrote:Well, if the Mek told them the legs would hold the body up, it would right?

Touche'

Very nice!

Some excellent work on the limbs and assault kannon

thanks guys for all your comments on this model, but i will say, the legs are staying, i think there fine, i might add some more armour plates on them, maybe, but not much, i love the look on this one. i got the model coz some one asked me to do a commission on one of these guys, so i wanted to see what i would come up with, to be honest, there is not much you can do with this model, it is how ever a good bits box model, lots of weapons and bits and bobs.

Well wazzoo, I'm slowly running out of phrases to express how I awesome I find your work..... theres just so much to admire!

As everything you do, that dred is great! But I think the deff dred model looks too hunched. Have you ever thought about putting a head on it?
I did that on mine:

This is so coool, your conversions and scratch buildings are really nice....

Spoiler:

yeah i thought about a different head, but i was only trying to convert it a little using a small amount of time and plastic card, anyway i like the head thats on it, and lets face it, you get so many bits with this model that you can do 3 different heads from them before you have to make your own.

I know you have plenty of options for the face, but no actual head. The face is on the torso, wich annoyed me, so I built an actual head.....

anyway, I love that scratchbuilt gatling gun, mate! It rocks!

Yes, but don't you find that the face is on the torso as to keep in with the ork look and feel if you raise it above the torso it no longer has that much of an ork feel.

But thats just my opinion, looking at orks their head is lower than their shoulders.

looks awesome, although i agree that the legs need beefing up a bit, maybe liturally just some scrap metal put on or some trophys or somehting. but anyway really like the trench base, very cool. keep up the good work.

I love the deff dread!!!

The assault cannon is awesome. How do you cut your tube? The really thin bits that go around the exaust for example.

tipios wrote:How do you cut your tube? The really thin bits that go around the exaust for example.

not sure which bits you on about, but most of the time i use a sharp knife and roll the tube and put the knife of the tube and try to keep it as straight as i can, of use a razor saw from GW or any good hobby supplier

Yeah that trukk is well orky good skillz!

Thanks for the tip!!

thats awesome converting skills dude! keep it up!

ok, did this yesterday, not 100% finished yet tho, please stand by for another update, i must add, i dropped this just after taking the photo and it didn't with stand the fall, its its being fix as we speak, but its looking ok, i don't think you will beadle to tell i dropped it lol

Ouch !!! that hurts when that happens

It was looking great hope it still remains to do so

Looks good! Nice work. Unlucky with the drop:(

Nice work, Orks always get better everytime you have to rebuild them.

Nicely done! I agree with cormadepanda... the more smashed up and re-assembled looking an ork is, the better.

amazing stuff wazzoo

just, amazing...

Looks very nice. Even with the very thin legs Your additions to the arms are great, and I love your assault cannon.

Only thing I would say is, flamer barrel could be drilled, and a little turquoise wash on any brass bits.

Again from someone else. That Assault Cannon if freaking awesome.

that dreads legs make me question its awesomeness, but its awesomess

It's a sprinter, fast moving, there running legs

Update on my Grey knight DeathDread, now before you all bang on about things i need to do on this model, im going to say this, this is not "FINISHED" yet, there are some little things i need to re-do and some stuff ive missed, looking at the phoro's has made me pick them up, as im sure you guys will with all your keen eye's that you have.








this photo ive put on, coz it my first go at sludgey slime filled water, and i dont think i did a bad job, feel free to guide me or add links on this, thanks guys

That's a spectacular build mate... and I don't think the paint job is bad at all (understatement). Odd base for a 40k figure, but if it's a display piece it doesn't matter.

Gitsplitta wrote:Odd base for a 40k figure, but if it's a display piece it doesn't matter.

Don't tell me they have rules on bases as well

should of said with the photo's, i re-did the base, as i wasn't happy with the one i did with it.

Nice job again

I love the big gun, did you make that? I've gone for revovler style weapon on my defiler.

What water stuff did you use for the base? It look good

We need more stuff to 'bang on about'

come on!!!

hurry

40k uses round bases. oval monster base is what that awesome dork knight would use. The base is bigger, and gets you in assults easier. But for display it is sexy. I love it and things it awesome even the big ass gun.

tipios wrote:I love the big gun, did you make that? I've gone for revovler style weapon on my defiler.

Yes i made that from scratch, just using plastic tubes and card, also some 40k model bits, i love it to, i will copy this gun for another model i'm thinking of doing.

Well done, I like the fact that you've got the motor on the front for turning the ammo, and the firing pin at the back. Those details really make it stand out!!

I think the "rule of cool" will cover you on the base... but yes, there are actual rules about base use as variation from the norm can give figures certain advantages.

My favorite blog! )

Yes, dam cool conversion ……..AGAIN !!!! I am so sick of saying that

But the hand cannon is a cool design, the motor on run ammo distributor is a really cool touch I might have to borrow that one in t the future

just got myself a new ork fighter bomber, will have to buy him a wing man hahaha, i said to myself im going to convert it to hell, but it dosn't need it, its the best GW model ive ever owned, i love it so much, i may have to have all 3 type

I have to agree they are the best models!!

I'll have to put on my wish list

That Dread is amazing. Like Gitz said you did a great job on the conversion. And your paint job is really damn good as well. Great job. Cant wait to see what you do with the fightaz.

Looks fantastic Wazzoo! Everything looks great. If you planned on using it in a game, I hope you can find a solution to the base issue.

I just picked up one of the Ork Bommer kits as well. Actually, it was an early Father's Day present. I feel loved.

I also thought about some conversions. I thought of combining it with a couple of LandSpeeders to get two or three Bommers out of one Ork kit. We'll see. Use of Land Speeders as looted Bommers would fit with my DeffSkullz clan, but the base Ork kit is awesome too.

HOLY...



This stuff is the best I have ever seen! I will be stalking this thread from now on...

I'll tell ya what i did get as well "A Space Marine Stormtalon Gunship" and i will be converting this soon too hahaha

Is there a cheaper place and better place to get paints and washes from, I only use GW so I'm a compleat n00b when it comes to paint.

I hear good things about the Vallajeo Model Colour paint range. I've seen a rack filled with their paints and there's easily 2 times the colour variety, not to mention all the differnt paint types they have. Off the top of my head they carry clear paints for blood/water effects, as well as thinners and flow changers. All of the paint bottles also come with dropper tops, so you can control paint mixing and thinning drop-by-drop.

hi boys and girls

i know there are going to be loads of photo's of the bombers coming out soon, so i thought i best do some myself, these are not converted in any way, they are as god intended them to be. i think the models are the best think GW have do, so they don't need converting just yet.

this makes me happy, cant wait to do his wing man

All those checks... YOU'RE INSANE man! But brilliant! Wonderful job, very inspiring!

Your are right there will be many of these models, but I don't think many of them will look this awesome. Outstanding details and weathering and many checks

Wazzoo, your too talented by half.

Thx

Looks great Wazzoo! I really like the effect you get with your red. Fantasitc!

I like the paint job to look rough as if the orks them self have done it, I see paint jobs on dakkadakka all the time and there to perfect for my liking, and some people ever class a model as finished with out any dirt on it, now I don't get that, so if your like me a basic painter, then abit of mud and wash makes it look well kool

The paintjob on the flyer looks really nice, i like the checks. Maybe I should use more checks myself....

got a treat coming up for the end of next week, keep an eye out on this post

Incredible army! How bout a picture of the bomma next to the smaller planes you made? I bet they look awesome together

Ok I'll sort that out

Wazoo! Man that is badass! I am most impressed by how small you got your checkerboard! Strangely, I too am painting my Dakkajet similarly, but I am having a hard enough time with much bigger checks

The touch-up is never ending, and then when I think I have it, I notice something else crooked

Dear god wazzoo, your skills are amazing. Do you do international shipping for comissions?

Can't do any costum jobs at the moment, full up and working hard, ask me again in a month or two.


Also just finished my mk II truck and trailor, I'll post the photo's tomoz

Here you go Boys and Girls, hope you like.


















i want you to choose your Fav/best bit of this model, i love this model, it was so much fun to build and paint, the hole truck and trailer comes apart for easy transport.

This is a great model. I love the little tank destroyed tally on the inside of the gun emplacement.

Love your stuff. It is very motivational

Fan freakin' tastic! Amazing work mate.

OMG!
You sir make me green with envy
This is why the IG don't get nice things as all the skills are on the side of the Orks

LOL you just made me chuckle so loud the dog ran out the room barking

i would love to start a IG army, and make it British, but my orks keep me going hahaha

I just imagine what you could do with the Sentinel kit...on second thoughts don't, that's my turf

Haha I'm working on my airship now that I started after Christmas, I'm going to get it done before it kills me.

Thats the spirit

That is amazing man! Absolutely AMAZING work!!

The kannon says Boomstick, but it is being used by orks. Oh, the irony.

That trukk is fantastic! Extremely well done!

That truck is awesome!!!!

can anyone remember what i was going to call my air ship ??

The U.S.S I'm Fuggin Awesome?

Now what was the names for the Airship, i know we chatted about it, cant fined it tho.

Wazz! That airship is great! Fantastic work. Whatever you call it, we're all impressed.

i need a good name, come on guys, what did we call it ?

"Red Stunty"

"Da Ahab"
"'Endenburg"
"Da Plunda' Awk"
"SPF 5000" (Cuz it blocks out Da Sun)


That's all I got. I think it needs a deff rolla though.

Haha, those are all pretty good, I like the first two though.

Haha there good

Wasn't it O.S.S.A.H (Ork Supa Space Assault Hamma) Dakka-Bringa

hahaha no way, but i will say this, its not going to be that close to the ground, when you see the finished model you will see what i mean, im dieing to show you guys some WIP pic, but i want to do a big "BOOM" when its finished. by the way, its changed since the last photo.

MuHahahahahahaha

waz out

Give us a clue at least

Call it "Ug above"

think of "heavy assault bomber"

a flying mother in law?

Gitsplitta wrote:"Red Stunty"

This made me giggle

I love these conversions...

That name is in the top 2 hahaha

Well, I'm glad someone got it... I thought I'd completely whiffed on that one. It DOES kind of look like the "Red Dwarf" (and besides, any chance to reference one of my favorite SciFi sit coms.... OK, probably the ONLY SciFi sit com... is something I'll gladly do!).

The S.S Dead Killy

Ok guys, here is one of 3 weapon platforms, i've put it in a spoiler just in case you want to wait for the finished model, have fun, i hope you like

Now your just teasing …..….. although looking good so far and I see the Ork bommber kit being used

Lookin' real nice. The only thing that bothers me is the relatively correct spelling everywhere. I'd expect orks to write a lot more phonetically.

great stuff, really, you should do up an army photo of which ever list you actually play. units with units you know ? I would like to see how it all looks together.

TiB wrote:The only thing that bothers me is the relatively correct spelling everywhere. I'd expect orks to write a lot more phonetically.

i dont play the game nor do i follow any Warhammer 40k "RULE", i make the models coz i like them and there are nothing else like them out there. these models are made to my spec, if i do a comission job, then i follow what they ask for.

so in i nut shell, my orks can read and write

Cant wait to see the DA Belly Buster pics and glad I could help

Just pure badassery right there Wazoo!

here you go rat fans...................

x infinity

even on my best day, a single section of your works outshines all of mine

WAHNSINN!
This is really a great build and a super paintjob!
I love the Belly Buster

Beautiful work! Love all the little grots and such running everywhere... very appropriate. Bravo good sir! An inspiration to us all!

Wow Wazzo..... thats AWESOME! Every single part of it is pure awesomesauce. Your best piece so far dude, kudos!

<Mind the language, please; our filters aren't perfect --Janthkin>

by the way, this was my Inspiration for this model, this was done by the user "Santobell"

..Just absolutely amazing Wazoo! I don't know what else to say! I can look at this for hours, catching new little goodies!

its all comes apart to, all the weapons are held on by magnets, so you can have it as a troop carrier

How many hours would you say you have in this project? If I were you, I'd enter it into a GD category at Games Day..Seriously...

i was going to do that "Armys on Parade" till GW York fell out with me lol

Your conversions are breathtaking. I want that huge ship!

Nawww. not AoP---I'd enter it into the actual Golden Demon if I were you..Vehicle, Diorama, or open categories!

If you just want to enter it into the GD conversion contest, they want it unpainted to see the bitz.

Forgot to ask before: where do these bombs come from?

MrMerlin wrote:Forgot to ask before: where do these bombs come from?

the new ork bomber

What glue do you use?

I'm scratchbuilding with 1/8" sintra and polystyrene card and using testors blue and GW superglue. Neither seems to work very well. I have greenstuff, but haven't filled with it yet (because I'm trying to make sure I have enough for other model conversions).

Just curious how you get it all to hold together and not worry about breakage.

If you are truly using styrene..testors blue or PLastic Weld will work, otherwise you need to use CA if it is some weird plastic.

GW superglue sucks..throw it away and get some good hobby CA, I'd recommend getting thin, gap-filling, and thick CA and some accellerator.

BLOODY AMAZING

i dont use any GW stuff, chuck it all in the bin, they may well make good models, but thats where it stops. i use Milliput as all my filers, there are loads of different types, so you cant go wrong, i also use a supra gun i got from a model train shop, its like water, and very good. the plastic glue i use is again from the same place, i think its Hummbro liquid cement.

hope this helps

Very nice waz... A+ mate.

I like it but needs more Gak not Orked up enough for me, but I do love the general look and the smashed cockpit is brilliant.

I just think a few more scrap coverings and some rivets would look better.

damn... that's an awesome idea. reminds me of the v-22 osprey.

Let you of then Don't get me wrong it looks good and all just more Ork to it, so really good start

Well, it had to happen sometime.. I love it though; very orky.

why are you so good, i hate your good ness. >.>

I think I LOVE IT! Actually, I'd rather see that in the hands of the Orks than the stupid marines, they already have one flier, why the hell did then need a 2nd before anyone else?

should be all finished and painted by tomoz

here you go boys and girls hot off the press











hope you all like, vote on one of them too please guys, as im really vain

Damn son, that's a lot o' dakka. But as every good Ork knows, can't never have 'nuff dakka!

That is EPIC! Well Done!

Wow. Another fantastic piece of orky awesomeness... I love the broken windshield!

Such a cool model!!!

How did you do the windshield?

At first I was like Hmmm then I was like Errrmmmmm, now I am like WOW

I cant believe how cool this looks, I take it back totally ORK !!!!!!!! would have liked to make it large but that gets me in the gak

That... is completely freakin' amazing wazoo... my hat's off to you. Wow... just wow.

The voting thing is tough. I don't know how you loaded them but double-clicking on them does nothing, which is how one usually gets to the gallery to vote.

When you post a pic and use the URL link, don't put the {img} around it. This will let every one click on it.

if you just copy and paste the "FORUMS" link in the Gallery, you'll get a clickable, zoomable pic.

I'm making one of these at the moment, this was made by "Klaus, not santa" he makes some bad ass stuff, he totally inspires me.

Secret Weapon Washes are great, GW's new washes are premium, and if you've a hankering for the old GW inks, Didi's Magic Ink!

For washes you could look at the Les Bursley how to make washes in the tutorial section on DAKKA. Apparently they are fantastic washes, and easy/cheap to make.

I do find that they leave a way glossier finish than the old washes, which is annoying.

If you are getting a gloss finish from the new GW shades, you're not mixing them up right, or putting them on too thick or something. It takes multiple, light layers to do it right. Gloss coats are not always a bad thing though. Be not afraid, since you can always dull them down (and should always).
