Well, here we go then just to get you lot of my back a thread of nothing really that good or interesting …… just some suff that I chucked together over the 3 or 4 years nothing finished or painted but you get the idea.

I am trying to be more committed so maybe this will help, updates will be few and far between but I will try hard to keep this going with something that might or might not interest you .

Here goes

Excellent! Your Green Stuff Skills are really good! The grot on the cooler! LOL Looks like a pilot or something? The Land Boat looks like it would make a GREAT Battle Wagon!

For someone who didn't want to do a blog, you got some great stuff!

I origianlly started one to help get motivated. It was for my World Eaters army. It didn't really work, but every once in a while it does make me feel guilty, so I do a bit more work on it.

well...about time mate!

i am still shaken by the fact that you thought you could go on posting here and not sharing all that...STUFF...

would love to get my hands on that big thing...

and boys...didn´t you knew what that is?

Land boat...it is clearly a...wait for it...































LANDSHIP
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landship

yeah, that´s what it is!^^

and i would love to see this completed soon... the materials alone for the prow make me all edgy to see it done! man i have to rethink my own airship idea completly...

and your GS work alone would have been sufficient to make a new thread...

by the way... i am not sure here as i have not the knowing of orks models, but is that a kit of an orktank or a scratchbuilt??? can´t tell anymore with all that black paint over it^^

we definatly need...yes neeed to see more of your work...well i think you got yourself way deeper in your own undoing^^ glad you finally did the right thing...!


cheers, vik

Landboat...Landship....
Doesn't that depend on how many masts the vehicle has? I think 3 masts or more denotes ship...if the same holds true for the land variant, I do not know.

I do know awesome though! And the Plastic Card work on the prow so far is awesome!

Thanks guys (blushing in the corner )

Now let you into a secret, I stole all the pictures of the internet hah aha ha heh no I did not and I will try and get some other stuff up soon.


But to be honest thanks to you crazy bunch of misfits you have given me the balls to do this so I will try and keep some updates soon


The only down side is answering all this bare with me

The top one was a scratch build except a few pieces GW and blood and skulls awesome tracks and some wheels (big thanks there)

Yes, the grot / goblin is a pilot he was to go in the plane I grotted up, but after a bit of detail added he would not fit in

The land boat tank boat or whatever is the start of my own grot mega tank, I loved the FW one but I wanted something a bit more classic ship feel, so the basis is going to be a pirate ship in metal on tracks with a few twist's.

I may need some help with things on this, so get you're thinking caps on chaps, and I will be using the maxmini grot pirate heads for my crew (with bodies of course) as they are friggin brilliant.


Incase any one is wondering as no one has mentioned the little thing with yes ZINGE INDUSTRIES excellent wheel on it is the start of a side car for my ork bike squad (yet to build) and it needs more rivets

I will update soon but I need to check everyone else to make sure they are pulling their finger out now, instead of telling me to pull mine out.

oh you bet...i like!

i had a fleeting feeling that this might be a sidecar to a bike...but was too unsure so i didn´t ask^^ in fact the agle of the pic was so bad i couldn´t tell heads or bum either^^

that tank is brilliant! bloddy brilliant at that... must have costed an age to make it done...

as for the landship...first question is...are you up to do a sketch of what you might want to go for a look?

what i can come up is you need to think about turrets... and maybe some ramps and such things...and a ball on a chain...really i think monkeytroll should be answering this...he is da man for such ideas^^

Well, to be honest that was my first real try at scratch building, it turned out not to shabby I think

As for the ship if you imagine a pirate ship, well I want that kind of look to it the old galleon (don't think about masts yet ) however I need this in metal plus land tank form.

So the issue I have is layout, where does the engine go, exhausts, crew quartos, weapon layout ect … I will have masts of sort as I want to do something that will answer the fuel problem …… and I want a crows nest for sure.. …
I like the idea of turrets as i have considered these for a couple of options, Ramps I am not sure as to what you mean or ball and chain can you elaborate on that please ...

Drawing a picture aint my strong point, tried it on this project to start and the idea was completely wrong (ended up drawing a cross between a battle ship and a tanker ) so that will be no, I find it best just to cut glue and see where it takes you..,,

Amazing scratch building skill You got there
For sure for the landship You need a grot to the steering wheel with a hook and a peg leg, plus, engine and exhausts at the back, like the rudder.
Don't forget the figurehead and a lot of nets with scrap metal in them, kind of fishing them up!

mate, if you put up more shots of your landship i bet i could make some mockups for your to use as a guide... i think i have some nice ideas coming up just as i type here...

sidecar looks very cool...and as for the shabby tank of yours...well it is shabby, but with orks and gretchkins...that is where you wanted to go for... and i have to tell you...making scruffy or worn out out stuff is sometimes a hell lot more difficult that creating even and smooth fittings...

i hope you feel the back of my my hand slapping your neck...all this stuff...brlliant i might add and you still didn´t want to make a thread...*shakes head...* peeps with low selfesteem...*shudder*

these grots are full of character... seems you have chosen just the right army for your talent!

gimme some pics and i see what i can come up with...

Thanks guys for all the positive feedback …… should have started a blog earlier

@ Ghostflame Yes, cant put my finger on the name of those film's either as for Gorkamorka skimmed through a few times, more a fan of the models than the games.
Have to say you have inspired me with your thread to do a couple of things now and one with a take on Jawa's and those grots with ghouls heads ……….. enough said for now

@ Hmelrose Thanks, thats why I love the green guys so much fun tinkering with stuff, plus if it goes horribly wrong it still works LOL

I hope the Pirate boat tank will be to everyone's liking

@ Vik the creator of my doom, Please do, will be intrigued do see the madness that spills from your over creative mind but beware it does need to have the feel of the old galleon to it that is a must for me……. Hows the punctuation now LOL …..

But make sure you don't suffer your own work at the hands of mine , after all still waiting for that walker to be finished, and an update on those guard

First of all You should finish the railings till the back at the same height of the front and in the back, like in every pirate ship a higher platform with the ship commander that shout orders.
I would put the dakka out of the sides, like cannon in a pirate ship as well!

I was thinking of something similar with the Dakka out of the sides, hatches with shooters possibly along those lines.
The over all look will be based around a traditional Galleon, but turned on its arse, after all its grots.
There will be a higher level at the back with two half towers on the back corners, lower down will be the engine and exhausts.
I am thinking one mast in the middle, with crows nest and power source will, explain that later not 100% sure how this will work.
I am wondering if I should add a grot cannon on the front deck, what do you think on that ?

Well thats the plan at the moment, just got some news that maxmini have released their bike wheels for sale, YAY! means I can start scratch building my Ork choppers

Vik yes they are creed's with a little alterations, I did the first one with the Maxmini head as I bought a headless creed of evilbay , then I had another idea for it and was about to start again and found another creed, hence the second general.

Poll starting time I feel ….

As you crazy bunch of misfits pushed me in to this show and tell, and have helped to resolve my self-esteem issues "Thanks Vik , Dave and mxwllmdr" in your tough love way.

I have decided more as a bit of fun/training exercise to build 2 yes 2 more wrestlers.

However you choose who, so add you choice after say a couple of weeks, the highest vote will go into construction.

So start voting

So far we have

Macho Man Randy Savage ( I hope wins )

Mankind (also a hopeful)

Junkyard Dog ( have to look that one up)

Mean Jean Okerlund (Ask Dave )

Andre The Giant ( ogre model )

Jake The Snake ( old school )

Also, do you have more pics of your models? just snap up some shots with your camera and get them up here.

MOAR!!

Don't worry about your camera or set up, I use a couple blank sheets of printer paper taped to the sides of carboard boxes and a desk lamp pointing straight down on top of them. My camera is my cel phone's digital camera without a flash, I get in real close and have noticed that the camera picks up light differently if I angle the phone differently. I take a ridiculous amount of images of the same models and then I delete the blurry ones and upload the better ones.

Just keep the cam handy while you work, you will naturally take short breaks after doing something, so while you do that, snap a pic and move on. You make things much more difficult than they need to be bud.

Errrrrr I wish I had not started this now ….. I will add the votes up, only one choice I am afraid per person so use it wisely.

As for the ring I thought that myself, but it was going to be a surprise but you buggered that now

Steel cage maybe, folding chair a definite what about the belt that has to be some where …….. Ref ok that has to be in there, hanging micro phone that means building a box, so thats a no …..how about the crowd no only kidding.


Now first things first rowdy piper how could I forget him, sorry Vik but I new some one would say undertaker eventually …. But what style undertaker …..

either doing a tombstone...but that would involve a second(third) mini or preparing to give the choking grip...as seen in my linkpic... outstretched hand...


the belt should be ling on one of the corners of the ring...as it always was on belt matches^^

don´t forgett about the cane...^^

and a full audience of catachans serving as hillbillies^^ with lots of big wavy hands made from foam^^


as for rowdy piper... i recently saw the movie they live again...so i thought...he should get a sudden hommage piece^^

The feedback has been informative all though a little over zealous ….. but i am up for a challenge "cough splutter "

Vik as to the shotgun "I stole the idea " its pretty easy really all you need is the empire musket arms, bit of a trim a little green stuff hey presto….. I will do a how to tomorrow for you mate

Well, great suggestions, but this was just a side project so 2 wrestlers for now ……. and maybe the ring to stand in.

I like the idea of loral wire for ropes, seen something done with that before that would work great, so thats in

i know that is just a mere sideproject... and it is mostly fun to jump to new ideas^^ kinda dakka tradition... as dave.,.. he always gets jumpy whenever peeps urge him to make lots of molds of cool stuff he did^^...

i twisted the floral wire with my drill...just put three or more wires inside the drillholder screw tight and bind the other point of the wire to a door handle or something similar...or heck a vice^^ and then just drill^^... after a few moents you have a thicker and good looking big wire...

did that a coupla times...

Hardy Boys Maybe

Tori Wilson and Kelly Kelly I think I might get lost in the build

Vik here is the shotgun walk through :

First you need the arm holding the crossbow from the Empire detachment box set.

Next remove the bow section from the main part of the crossbow, the parts that over hang.

Now you need to trim the front of the crossbow down, cut roughly where the under belly starts to curve up, this will be the belly of the shotgun.

Now you have to trim the top section, roughly slice a section out so it stops above the fingers and before the small raised section on the top of the crossbow.

Now take a good flat modelling file to get an even surface, making sure not to file away any of the fingers holding the crossbow, this is your level guide and the detail.
If you go past them bin it and start again, now file the end round so you have a realistic looking belly for you shotgun.

Now it is starting to take shape, simply add two pieces of plastic rod as barrels, you can use hexagonal for more ornate or antique look.

Then once you have the desired look a little greens stuff to cover any holes or for a little design.
If you want the same look as mine you need to use the barrels from the Empire Pistolers .


Well thats it done hope that helps, if your stuck just let me know.

Vik just been looking at my General of " The Lost Legion "

I think I remember the parts now. So here is the list : torso and legs are an old set of Col gravis Resin Pretorian cavalry Guard, he made a while ago I have a load nocking around, the head was as mentioned correctly earlier FW veteran Guard head, the pointing arm was from the Cadian Guard HQ set (with shoulder pad cut off ) the other arm was from the tank sprue and so was the bino's he is holding.

Other than that was GS braiding on his shoulders, also very fine picture wire for ceremonial braiding hang from his chest.

The horse was from the Empire Pistoliers range but 2 horses converted to get the stance, also GS for the stringy edging at the back end, picture wire for braiding again as well and brass etched eagle at the front.

I think that covers all that

actually i think this is a sweet car... to orkyfy it it could be a bit hurting... in fact i think it looks more like a IG command vehicle...but that is just me i think... the tires would work for your purpose tho...l but i might add here it needs then new fenders...

by the way... the first pic looks like a perfect way to make a flying car...:

Errrrmmmmm

I have 2 more of these ( black and purple ) so maybe an idea for the future …….. Mind you the guard idea is a no no due to the scale its to big, I know its 40k but even with that in mind its still to big

This idea is for building soma gangster Orks, plus I was thinking of using a couple of ogres as well, just for the heavies

You know Pinstripe suits, fedoras, knuckle dusters, tommy guns that kind of thing ……. when I found these cars I was like that would work

hmmm...when you want to keep the fenders...i think for the look the wheels need to be inside/at the right place to the car... i like the fenders as they are too... maybe use some other wheels? but then you would loose the orky feel...dang, thats a vicious circle^^

the tommygun concept sound very nice... also the ogre use... well i PM´ed you something about ogres^^

how big are the cars anyway? a reference shot maybe?

Land Ship looking good! I would say the back needs to get moved back a bit, so it's sticking out past the tracks...just a person prefference though!

Well, to be fair it's not stuck down it was just to prove I am slowly working on it honest ……. But it will be further back when it comes down to fitting .


Vik I think you have to look at most races you get larger and bigger than normal people, so really I guess it's a case of horses for courses


I have started working on another wrestler can you guess who he is : early stage and still working on the face, a bit of redesign needed call it plastic surgery LOL

Any way here it is

Slowly !!! Have done nothing I am afraid to say

Got a couple of days of this week so fingers crossed will get some work done, having what I like to call a "Dave work week" fething arse hole bosses pushing us , figure this one out we have had a very successful week got the cost below the target (profit margined is on the up) but we are not pulling our weight

We have done better than the other 2 shifts (which have managers ) with less staff and more productivity …….. But the problem is we have no shift manager as ours left in January and has not been replaced, so morning shift managers are overseeing ha ha our shift.

Get the impression some managers are worried about there jobs

Woww some one posts and you leave this gak

No updates of late because work is really destroying my sole at the moment, even though some of the middle management are going (redundancy ) the place is still a bag of gak.

However with what little motivation I have had left, I managed a little work but nothing worth showing

But I will get some updates soon

Dave I was only busting your balls as you always inspired with your work, which in the process got me of my arse to some, now you have been engulfed in the world of FONV the updates had run dry.

Vik I have been looking at some parts for my SP inspired ( thanks to you ) IG have some things to show you and your view on what you think


Rouge afraid no fat men any more, totally busted on that front, however feel free to continue the poem, never inspired any one to write poetry before


So nothing serious just a bunch of arse holes that I have the unfortunate pleasure of working for and with

"Warum hat mir niemand gesagt, das mein Hintern so fett aussieht?"

like so?

oh and i have to say... the german version of mel brooks is quite good... they did a fairly good one with all his movies... tho i have to say... i expect a lot of yiddish in his movies in the original version...that one wasn´t used in german...

There was one where Mel and his friends were supposed to do a mission as they were theater types, and Mel was dressed as Hitler as he was an exact spitting image for the movie, Mel played the Jewish actor who looked like Hitler attempting to escape, AND Hitler the confusion that occurred was awesome!
