This is a BattleWagon I made. Let me know what you think.

why soo much blue?

The engine looks silly hanging out over the front of the thing like that. How does the power get to the wheels?

I like the look of the trukk side panels over the LR hatch openings, and the platforms on the top of the sides in general.

A bit of weathering would do wonders to the wagon. A bit of mud perhaps.

I'd have to agree with the comment about the engine. It wouldn't actually do anything stuck out at the front like that.

Yea Id move that sucker to the back or somthing. BUT other then that, thats a pretty sweet battlewagon.

Ork philosophy: Looks cool, is loud, is dirty, is great.

I agree with Faux Pas! I assume you're going for the simple ork paint job look and I like the Loota Blue and "red wunz go fasta!" idea of a paint scheme. The custom bitz look great on top but it does seem too clean.

I think that it would be better if the engine were simply moved back, along with all the platforms. That would solve the issue of the engine not being able to actually power the treads, and would make the whole vehicle look more stable, and balanced. Other than that, i like it. Very orky, for sure

It needs battle damage and weathering. Drybrush/stipple boltgun metal on the edges a bit and maybe carve some gouges in it with a craft-knife to make it look battle-worn and rugged.

Other that that, it's pretty sweet. Love the 'splashed' paintjob. It looks downright Orky.

weathering suggested

love the idea of the cab just hanging over the front of the model though.

Ya, every saying you need to add weathering whick is true cause orks aren't the best at maintenance. also the engine needs to be moved. Oh ya, ADD MORE DAKKA

Good start.

A bit of attention to the various details and some washes would finish it off nicely.
