Hi guys,

Thank you , glad you like the shootas.

Been a bit tired, but tonight am doing a bit at least. The buggies I am calling done, and will be mailed as soon as I can manage it. The 1st trukk I am mucking about with as we speak...

Put a bit of interior detailing....


Little riveting on the outside.


Finished the right hand exhaust..


Right this minute I am working on that boring dozer blade up front.

Thank you for your support guys, sorry I been a bit quiet, getting used to new job.

Dozer blade.



Cheers.

Nice loving the back it looks amazing especially the wood you added, nothing like the real thing hey

Great job on the dozer blade and adding the emblem really rocks totally orc style

Nice work on the truck, Cam.

Good job on making the dozer blade more interesting.

and, as I failed to mention it last time as I blitzed my blog list, congratulations on the promotion.

Just love the halftrack truk Cam. Fantastic idea and your execution is top notch!

That truck bed is a pretty cool idea. I almost want to see some armored plates hanging from its sides to partially cover the half tracks.

Thank you all. Much appreciated.

Well my plan is to have some plates dangling down to protect the track and to put some "fenders" on the wheels at th front. Got to finish detailing the underside. Diffs etc. also need to decide where to put the weapon systems. Probably the roof of the cab. Thinking either an automated turret similar to the buggies, or a simple mount behind a stack of sandbags . With a grot crew!

Back to bed, try and catch another hour before I have to get up. Cheers for now.

Grot crew and sandbags for the win

Great looking truk Cam
Keep up the great work!
Grtz
Mark

Thank you guys.

Bit of work...



and....



Cheers.

Nice - loving the grot gunner behind the sandbags Also, great work on that dozer blade Hope you're settling in and getting enough sleep

Amazing work. I much prefer the Grot and big shootaz over the rokit launchers if I'm brutally honest - both are very Orky though

Really awesome models. Nice detailing.
Very interested to see how the will look painted.
Keep up the good work.

I'm very enamored with the dozer blade and front grille of the trukk as well as the hood. Excellent work Cam.

Very nice Bloodaxe Trukk there man!

Big Gunz and Sandbags

You seem to have a knack for building trucks, heck, wheeled utility vehicles in general. Most impressed.

The sandbags are a nice touch.

Those custom trukks are orksome.

It would be cool if you made the artillery hitch up to em if you ever made arty pieces.

Splendid work sir! Love the shooty grot!

Cam found his inner Big Mek

i went back and re-read a bunch of pages in the 30-40 range, trying to figure out when you started casting wheels. noticed you also cast tracks for the new trukk, and didn't say anything about them...they look fantastic! have been thinking about some grot tanks (wazoo2000 had a tut about them, and Gitsplitta's got a fleet of them...they look fun to make), and i was going to build one tread and make it my first casting, so i didn't have to keep doing them for each tank. when i get to that point, i'll probably ask for pointers. when are we going to see some WIP for the LoER contest?

edit: guess i need to keep up on your other threads...noticed last night you were talking about casting quite a bit over there on another thread.

Very cool . the little touches like the sandbags and the details on the dozer blade really make it uniques.. Good Show!

Thank you all.

I will sort a bit of a tut on my molding, but I highly recomend DrH's or any of the ones that can be found on Dakka.

In the mean time, had a little time today so this is trukk no.1 just about done.





Thanks for looking in, sorry I am a bit quiet, RL troubles, but not to worry. Think I will divert myself a little before trukk No.2 and the scorcher and the wartrakk.

So great, such cool stuff comes out of this blog, excellent work.

Hang in there Cam, you've got friends across the world wishing you the best.

The truck turned out really well. Very 1950's looking. I just really love the half-track trukk idea. Maybe I'll do some converting of my own one day.

Dat truk is da nutz... Paint it red coz red wonz go fasta

Hiya mate... sorry not been through your pages for a while... but WOoooo some incredible work! Real attention to detail and a great sense of character already! Top stuff and reallg inspirational!

Nice work Cam. Truck is looking good.

One thing that I've just noticed; The mud-guard over the front wheel is all dented (due to your heating technique), but has no scratches/chips like the rest of the truck... this isn't a major problem. Also-But (this is what I have just noticed), the sides of the rear truck bed are all chipped and scratched, but not dented, and are very straight.

Maybe a tweak in a couple of places with a pair of pliers will help. Just to take the straightness out of them.

Nice work.
I can only hope that the conversions I have planned will work out half as well.

Thank you,

New project beginning....

But first...

@ Grim, Thank you sir. Much appreciated.
@ Gits, Thank you, means a lot. And everyone should build a half track some time. Would love to see your take.
@ Ruglud, Don't know what colour Nerdy will be painting them. But thank you.
@ Magos, Thank you, always good to hear from you. Really glad to be an "inspiration" to anyone, it is what I would aspire to.
@ Dr.H, Thank you Doc, well spotted and I have done some work on it, but will; do more, Next time you see them they will prbably be on the other side of the world.
@ Anpu-adom, Thank you and I am sure your efforts will be brilliant.

So new project.

LoER Competition Round 13,
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/629845.page

Basically an accident, either happening or happened.

I am going for "Da Indy Burga"

Ork airship, explosion.

First of all I am playing with the airship. So decided to do something different for me, a small scale model.

Intital frame..

Strutts...

Skin..

Stitching...


Bit of string!...


Now I am not happy with this method, especially for a bigger ship. But for this I will persist. I am thinking I will make this a grots ship or maybe a ship used to build the bigger vessel.

Your thoughts as always for me, are very much appreciated.

You are completely mad...
