Hey folks,
This is my first WIP posting so bear with me. Its an Ork Trukk I got from my wife for Christmas. I was looking for a way to put lights in it, and since it didn't have any lights on it (okay, there may be one piece that could be a light, but it was one of the last things I put one so I didn't notice it) I put them in the engine. Here are the pics.
This is the trukk all together except for the crew. I'll paint them separately.
These are the two 1.5 mm LED's that go in the air intake.
The engine block and the work I did to put in the lights.
The engine put together and lights on. (My wife says it looks like Wall*E)
And finally a closeup in the trukk itself.
I hope to add to this post as I put in the batteries and paint it.

Well, maybe not. But I've seen them lit up in the US. Here's an advertising photo for a Kawasaki ZX6R Ram Air INTAKE LED. Not quite the same thing, but there it is. Perhaps my big mek likes tuner cars....
As for the cylon, the old cylon eyes used to move back and forth, but I can't do that here...

I immediately went "knightrider" as well . Paint it black, and give the driver curly hair!

All Black? Heck no! Any self respecting ork knows that red goes faster!Waaaaaagh! 
Plus I like adding bits of paint from my favorite enemies, so expect a little ultramarine blue.
I apologize for my country for the shame that is Knight Rider, and any resemblance to that shame in my model is purely coincidental . I was thinking more like tuner car.

n'oublie jamais - It appears I now have to highlight this again.
It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion. By the juice of the brew my thoughts aquire speed, my mind becomes strained, the strain becomes a warning. It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion. |
