i was making the squiggoth ages ago (only reason its not made is because i have still not resupplyed my hobbie stocks).

and yea the battle wagon should be a "wow" model (hopefully).

UPDATE ON THE BATTLE WAGON

so work has been slow as i have been revising for A levels and all of that milarki, but after a solid 4 hours of revision today i felt i deserved a treat of sorts.

Thus BATTLE WAGON PROGRESS (crowd cheers "wooo" "yay" ect)









so i have been looking at ways of scratch building a deffrolla for a while and this is close the final creation. i found that one of the main problems when making it was that the structure was'nt strong enough when hollow. so this lead to me basing the armour plates around some old wheels i had lying around to keep the rolla round and sturdy. this on the down side has lead to it being quite heavy though which is annoying as i am going to have to use a lot of surport structure on the plates holding it in place.
at the moment it is detachable and i am not going to attach it untill its painted, mainly so i can paint the bits behind it with out having to take it apart anyway.

i also did some work on a engine for this a while ago, this is PART of the engine which i plan to mount on top (as the back has to be a door for boyz to get in/ out of)



andthe last thing was that i changed the deffdreads crush mace arm for a tyranid talon. it just felt a lil messy as a conversion.



its only bluetacked for now but i will glue it after i get somemore glue.
i have liturally run dry on: super glue, plastic glue and green stuff and on top of that i need to buy the blues for the slightly different deathskulls scheme and the reds for the speed freaks theme i am doing on the black reach ork boyz and kopters. but then again tommorow is my last exam (psychology) and then shortly after its my birthday so that should replace the funds i spend on the supplys.
anyway ho hum.

This was quite a long update but if you read all or even some of the text thanks, COMMENTS WOULD BE GREAT, ESPECIALLY CONSTRUCTIVE CRITISM.

thanks

Pretty much I was talking about the Elephant turned Squiggoth. But the Looted Wagons are all awesome in retrospect.

UPDATE of sorts

the update is above but it joined the posts so it did'nt come up as a ne post which is reall quite annoying. but yea this updateis the update from before.

Runna@ Pretty much I was talking about the Elephant turned Squiggoth. But the Looted Wagons are all awesome in retrospect.

thanks .

Lol!

Lootaz appear, things vanish

Have finished my first 6 lootas and i based and finished off the big mek with KFF.











i think its a improvement compared to when i first painted them almost a year ago.....



anyway comments are always appreciated.

constructive critism is also must appreciated.

and thanks for looking.

I would honestly keep the base on the front bearing in mind there's a huge gaping hole in the front! In my opinion I think it looks better too!
And yes defiantly an improvement...The reason why my plog hasn’t been updated is because I don't have any internet connection at moment so I can't upload pictures easily. (I’m Thinking of goffs next!).

I do have to wonder why you ended up with such, well, generic bases. Those original ones were Orky Awesome!

Really? i thought the one on the big mek looked so messy and ridiculus. i am agreeing with HAZZER though that hole is a bit of an eye sore, i think i might do something on the big mek then but i dont want it to be too static.
The old one was so he had a lil bit more cover as all he used to do was sit at the back with the lootas and give them some cover, but i hardly use him like that anymore so he is useually in other units that are running down field dakaing stuff.

AND i only did 5 of the ones i kustom made with the shield bases, none of the others (just because i usually put them at the front of the Mob anyway ).

but hmmm

OH and HAZZER, i will be watching for when you get your internet back online dude

I like the newer bases. Makes the models stand out more.

UPDATE

i have stared doing the other kustom lootas.
These are just up close pics before i paint them.





with these ones i was thinking about doing them highly tatooed and blued up as thet are the only kustom ones without shields.

THIS ONE IS MY BESTEST ONE


i just like the red button, which will defo be staying when i repaint.

Nice update. And lots of new pretty ork stuff to look at. Some thing I havnt done is a while. Those lootaz are very nice.

Good stuff Big
I can't wait for the next update

UPDATE ON THE BATTLE WAGON!

Thanks guys btw

Riiiight so i resupplyed and started back on the battle wagon. Pics below











Its getting to a stage now where i am thinking "dam this is getting big"

i have also been working on the 2 big shooters on it. the main thing when making these was working out how to make them pivot and detach with what i have. i have used a simple solution and i think it works ok enough.
the big shotter is on a round base which is slotted into a hole in the panel it sits in, this then allows it to pivot and be detachable. i was thinking about using magnets but tbh they are a pain in the ass imo.







i am planning on having it mounted on the front. But anyway.

Commments and Constructive Critism would be great

Thanks for looking

BATTLE WAGON

More work on the battle wagon











I am toying with the idea of having a back door that opens so orkses can get out and you can see inside. but i cant think of a good way of getting the door to open/ close?
This is what i have at the moment.



And then maybe with a face on it so it looks like its opening and closeing its mouth. but hmmm.

The turret is working well and i think i am going to mirror it on the other side and then use it as 2 big shooters and in bigger games as 4 bigshooters. oh and i am thinking about adding a kannon somewhere on it (detachable).

Anyway thanks for looking

That's looking brilliant. Equal parts Looted and Skratchbuilt, and absolutely Orkiliy inspired.

Youz bin tutched by Mork, you 'az.

How about a pulley either side of the door, to raise and lower it portcullis style? If you had a hook halfway down the body (either side) and 2 knots or loops in the 'rope' you could hook it in an open or closed position?

I cant decide what impresses me more. The conversion or the fact you are using a Rogue Trader Land Raider.

Honestly i had to check to see what a portcullis was. I was thinking about it and i dont think i am actually going to need it to phsically move. so i am thinking about haveing the portcullis sort of design but without the chains pulling it up and then just taking the door off when i want to use it open topped and put it on when i want it to be ard case.

lol. glad to be impressive


On a side note
So i have been basecoating the lootas today and also started repainting the deffdread with scything talon to they will be up shortly. im doing the deff dread in a different scheme i am testing out which will be used on the battle wagon.
Oh and as well as that i did a lil work on the battle wagons rear hatch. i really wan to have it as a skull head and jaw. anyway

thanks for comments, more stuff will be up soon

Good, GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!

Big The door is really cool and making it a skull would make it even more awesome
Also the big shoota really looks well
I may loot that
