Actually dantay xv neither, it fits snugly over without touching:


And I thought about the orcette but the night goblins are the hoodie wearing scary fans

Thanks Theo, I'm going to strap some kegs on, never fear also think maybe another set of wheels?

If you wait a few weeks there will probably be plenty of tracks available IM LOOKING AT YOU TAUROX, though I wish I wasnt

Yay! Yay! And thrice yay!

Animosity orcs fit beautifully in there And the stack's looking good too.

The space on the right of the lastpics wheel is indeed wide enough to suggest one more axle...hmmm or a bigger set of wheels altogether...

I don't totally hate the taurox. I would consider just having tracks along the bottom of the whole.

Cheers mt. I do love those orcs! I didn't even realise that one had an arm ripped off. Glorious. Think I need one more ork sitting on the track rim brandishing a whip to beat back the hordes!

Yeah, vik, that was my thought too. Run another axle from dowel and add the chunky armoured battlewagon wheels.

Just a bit of gap filling and need an extra shoota sticking out one last corner, then on to the spraying!

If I was going to do anything with the taurox, I'd rip the back coer of and have it like a pick up truck on track.

I think the design team were trying to act like they had a sense of humour over the vehicle... Tau rocks?

Yup

I quite like this angle too:

For me that angle doesn't make sense, what had happened a second before? What made the valk get into that odd angle?

Take off! from dropping troops on the battlefield. It's more that you can totally see the Ork's expression but it's not like the Valkyrie's glued onto the base anyway.

Flying at low level, then "OhMy GOD, where did that bus come from....!!!" Pull Up.

All looking brilliant, so good, love the orks, got to find me some of those.

At cam, where gave I seen that scene in a movie...

@Cam

I have just worked out how to upload to the gallery straight from my phone! No more photobucket for me, I think. So, oveqr excited, slightly too dark pic of the broadcast array:

Everything is coming along dude! really nice work so far!

I love it, I can imagine the orks inside the toor buss, going "Wot da zoggin eck dat noiz? Oi you lemmy, go check it out!!"

He pops the hatch. Sees the Valkyrie barely scrape by... "I got ta get me wun a deze !!" he exclaims "But in red an blakk!"

He drops back in da buss "Boyz, da preshow entatainmet just arrived! Lets go!!"

Meanwhile in the Valkyrie Pilot to jump troops "Smoke ahead, we are at the LZ, prepare to drop".... "Wait... WAIT!... WHAT IN THE THRONE?? Pull up pull up PULL UP!!"

Nah, they wouldn't have heard it with the stereo blasting inside the bus...Lemmy just happend to choose that moment to go see if there was more beer......

I really feel one of them needs moles and facial hair now.

Oh, believe me there's more beer

So, I think the Battlewagon's built!




Bit of gs filling to do, but basically there. C&C?

That's an AMAZING build my friend. I think you missed out on your true calling. Well... OK. Your true calling is keeping the Mrs happy and being a great dad to the wee ones. But other than THAT.... I think you should be teaching at a Mek skool.

Good job Graven. Very Orky.

What gets me is when you start setting up your army you can just put out the bases and your opponent will be like

Opponent:"WOW!!! that's the coolest Ork army I ever faced"

An then you can then say "I'm not playing orks, I just had all these parts in my bits box going to pot." Starts adding the Valkyries

Opponent "thud. Thud" sound of jaw hitting the floor right before they hit the floor from being blown away.

Well orks always were my first love I do have another crazy build planned with the boy. Really high praise from such an orkmeister as yourself

That'll have to be closer looked at later on on my desktop....but looks nice even at the phone...

Ha-Ha!

Done, for now:

Lemmy's happy to see the extra keg storage there

I'm quite fond of the grot hanging off the back fender

Great battlewagon - even better base

And the valk is somehow better for not being so green anymore

Looks beautiful graven. Like the brown weathering.

Fantastic job all round, Valk looks awesome, and that wagon....

Agree with Theo 100%.

That shows you have class

Where'd the Battlewagon go? You gonna Loot that valk now?

Kind words chaps!
So here's my to do list:

I was worried the valk was too brown, I might add some more mud spatter at a later date though. Battlewagon is getting primed along with the menoth ordo xenos retinue and simulacra bearers. Looking at what's there, I'm pleasantly surprised - it's not too much. Aiming for the lot by end of June, but more realistically by start of August. We shall see!
