Hi All,

This is my first attempt at converting a model. As a Ork player I was sad to learn that Wazdakka didn't have an official model. Please let me know what you think!

I like the cannon you have on the front as well as the large amount of ground clearance.

Thanks. I was originally going to use a Big Barrel Gun from a Stompa, but decided to go with the Kannon left over from my Battlewagon bits. The way I designed the wheels made it necessary to make the bike much higher off the ground than a typical bike model.

I used a lot of different bits to put this model together.

The main body of the bike is a Black Reach Deffkopta, including the legs of Gutsmek. The blades from a Deffkopta connect the wheels to the main body, and the rokkit engine in the back is from the front of a Deffkopta.

His torso, head, and arms are from the Black Reach Warboss, with a top knot added from a random Nob head.

The "windshield", control panel, steering controls, engine block, foot rest, shield in front of his feet, and some of the exhaust system was taken from a Trukk kit.

The wheels, axles, and kannon are taken from a Battlewagon kit.

The 3 bosspole come from various Ork kits, including the Warbikers kit.

To give you an idea of scale, the base is a Valkyrie sized base.

The whole model was put together using only a bit of green stuff to fill a gap between his torso and legs and its held together by mostly superglue. The only plastic glue was used to attach him to the base.
