So, I've had the idea of a battle fortress for orks based on a very awesome example that I saw recently

So, how to get started?

Anyone know where i could get a big tank cheap?

If you're good with plasticard (or want to become good with plasticard), I'd suggest go to a toy store/2nd hand store/charity store/yard sale/etc and get hold of a toy tank of roughly the dimensions you require (skullhamma is about the size of a baneblade IIRC), then get yourself a load of plasticard (different textures, thicknesses, I beams, L beams, tubes, rods, etc) and a bitzbox that Orkimedes himself would be envious of, and go to town...

Toy stores and amazon/ebay would be a good start. Also a Salvation Army or Goodwill is a good place, because I always see big ass tanks sitting around. Also I remember that being posted, and it still makes me giggle.
