Hey guys,

I have been working on a Battle Wagon conversion and I have uploaded some pictures and conversion details to my blog:
http://theadeptsforge.blogspot.com

Here is a sample picture:


The details on the Deff Rolla I have converted/scratch built for the wagon will be posted soon. I created it from some PVC plumbing parts, old Armor plates from the Gubbinz packs you used to be able to order, wheels from the Siege Tower, and a Pegasus Hobbies Chemical Plant kit (for the support arms). Here is a preview of that:




Check out the details and let me know what you think!

Deff Rolla articleis now on the blog as well!

10 wheeled BW, looking good, although i think the deff rolla couls do with more spiky things, to make it if nothing else, look more killy and stabby, just looks a tad dull atm.

That is sweet!!

Where did you get all your spare wheels from? Are you gonna have another battlewagon with all tracks?

I ordered some spare wheels from eBay and others from various Trukks I have. My second Battle Wagon will have tracks in the back only. The spare tracks are going onto a Trukk frame at some point.

Very nice. I was considering doing that, but decided that I like the tracks too much
The Rolla is really cool too.

cool

JHall, that's really impressive! How did you end up attaching the wheels to the chassis?

sweet idea put something on the wheel put something on the whell like a squished something

Looks sweet but I think the armz on the roller could do with being a bit beefier or having some piztonz or additional bracingz????

So beautiful.

Keep it up, I want to see more.

Looks really nice. I think a relatively easy improvement would be to add a second set of supports to the Deathrolla by fabricating some hydraulics so it looks like they can lift it as needed. Maybe just some pieces of tubing stuck inside each other so they look like hydraulics?

I second the above on more bits for da rolla. Looks very orky, I like it!!!

that looks .... AMAZING!!

I used the connecting arms that go with the front tires for the back two as well. The middle tire is connected to the frame with some plastic tubing. You have to shave of the connections for the tracks to get everything to fit as well.
