I see you are already in the appropriate spirit!

Hopefully will start getting my WIP entries up this weekend

Even funnier when someone else posts one of your pics and you go 'Oh yeah, I'd forgotten I was using that part'

schank - The servo-grots have already laid many jam-based snares, which in conjunction with the cyber-pike, sharks with you-know-what's and grot-koptas will ensure that even if you manage to create a pile of spare parts, they'll never get back to your lair

Arakasi, I've done my part of our bargain, time to do your part!

i want in, although i dont think i can compeate with the transformer truck.... that is just too cool

I think you'll find it's a Battlewagon And currently not being entered (I don't know why not...) - so no holding back!

Now, what this thread really needs is MORE PICTURES OF TRUKKS!


Ready to rumble!


Boarding planks at the ready!


Whack! Whack! Whack!


Da Inna Circul prepares to re-embark their Trukk after dealing with sum peskie 'umies...

Ahhh. But there is one the you fail to realize. Hey whats that over there? (points off in the distance and runs away while monkeytroll looks the other direction.)

Adding to the Trukk Showoff part of this thread - some pics I took at Warhammer World from the 'Eavy Metal display cabinets...

Here's a Truck I build out of a Revel model and some leftover parts:



It's almost bigger than the Battlewagon kit.

Oh I see. Show the pictures of your trukks blowing up my chimera why don't you ;p

@Anung Un Rama: Cool Trukk!

@endtransmission: That just *happened* to be the best picture of my Trukks for the day

Just another generic Trukk.
This one is magnetized like a mofo, so every arnament can be removed.



More pics over at http://amadmodelersblog.blogspot.com/2011/05/ork-trukk.html

Looks like Arakasi is pulling out all the trukks for this one. I mean pulling out all the stops. No pulling out all the trukk stops. Hehe

@oveku: Nice "generic" Trukk. It would be interesting to see it in pieces (mine are also magnetised, but as my first forays into magnetisation, can be a bit fiddly on the game table!)

@ceorron: I *know* you have at least one Trukk - where is it?

Fiddly? Don't you mean holy gazillion parts batman will it ever get on the board.

I have a converted trukk to paint, when that is done i'll post my trukks then.

Actually, that wasn't *quite* what I meant - and has actually been quite useful - how else am I supposed to transport three Trukks in two Trukk slots in my Battlefoam Pack 420? Looking forward to a Pack Air with room to hold all 4 in ready to play form...

@ceorron: Looking forward to it!

Easy get a Tardis... it's bigger on the inside

You know they don't just leave those lying around here right?

To keep it Trukk related, early in my project blog their was a discussion about doing a Drop Pod Trukk. Anyone want to enter a Tardis Drop Pod Trukk? I guess that would have to be a Deathskulls Trukk Even better idea than a Bad Moons Taxi Cab Trukk I'm on a roll! (or not...)

Here are my three completed Trukks!

STOCK!


MODIFIED!


HUMMA!

I rather like that (Humma truck)

I'm subscribing to this, time to work on Trukks for July!

Love the Humma. Much better than mine.

You know Artsoldier35, I must have seen those other two - but had forgotten them waiting for the Humma to grace this humble thread I ripped your front grill idea off for my GMS Trukk for you Is the Ork driver painted?

Dez - get on it!

Your Humma has its own unique charms Anung Un Rama! Is that Wreckin' Ball halves for hubcaps?

Need to get you both to post how-tos

Keep'em coming Big Meks!

do you know how mad this makes me I WAS GONNA MAKE A HUMMER i have a toy one and everyfink

Nope. Plastic Ogre belly plates.

I'm not an Ork player and thus my opinion is not green-tinted, but the one made of random bits of junk by glomscient is my favourite.

prototype_X - don't get mad, get even! Make/loot a better one!

Anung Un Rama - I definitely wouldn't have thought of that!

troy_tempest - Spektatas are always welkome! You are free ta join in later if you change your mind, uvverwise - just mind you stay out ov da Painboyz hutz - no matter what dey tell ya, it *won't* be gud for ya!

Hmm, a drop pod trukk, you say? Why not just eliminate the pod and have a drop trukk? Might not survive the landing too well, but that's why you 'aim' it to land on a nice and squishy cushion, like some guardsmen. Or orks. Works either way, though you'd need a lot of extra plate bitz and some respirators for the crew. And it could also double as a boat... no, a submarine...

So I have two questions.

1. could it just be a rules wise truck, or does it have to look like an ork trukk? I have an idea of what to make for a trukk for when I revive my ork army, but it wouldn't exactly look like the tradditional ork trukks...

2. Where do I sign up?

good luck to everyone in the competition
