Cheers guys! Thanks for the kind feedback! 
Lord Kaesar II wrote:Woah. I just heard wind of this thread today, and, having read through it, have already had some inspiration from your orky creations. I love your big boss and mek, especially in their whole 'never too much' attitude. If I may, I might suggest you could, just about, build some special character rules for them off of the rules for Deff Dreads. May sound a bit silly, I'll allow, but really, what are orks if not silly? I wait in anticipation for how you build this skullhamma of yours.
'And so he proclaimed, "Magnificent," and desired that Deff continue his craft, building more and more inspired works in the name of... whoever.' -excerpt from Kaesar II, an autobiography
Thanks mate, I'm glad my work is of inspiration to you!
I will definately make datafax's for my boss's when I get round to it, hopefully sooner than later 
Not much work, but I connected the two tracks together today, I also widened the hull by 20 mm, because the massive tracks seemed to dwarf the hull.
Sprue also helped re-enforce the bond
Cheers

If and when I get a Baneblade for my Guard I am so extending the tracks like that. It looks awsome. I can't wait to see 'Da Mek' finish it. Lovin' all the other stuff too.

Thanks mates
'eres anuvver update.
Progress on this is going rather slow, there's been alot of head scratching going on with me wondering what on earth to do next.
Nonetheless I still managed to settle with something, so I suppose im going for a battleship-ish type of look, lots of turret guns, small vision points and all sorts and a zogging huge turret. Something sorta like this:
so I decided to mount the gun housing onto the front of the skull'amma as I wanted it to look like it was really integrated into the tank. I also build up sections of raised armour to add to the battleship-ee feeling
I also made and painted an interior... for the ease of painting I painted it before I assembled it together.
Sorry about the bad pictures, the lighting is really bad in my room right now and I couldn't get a decent picture of the interior I made. I'll have to wait abit before I can take another photo for you guys
Cheers

Looks terrific Deff! Really coming along nicely and good heavens what a beast!
I'm just wondering if that extended ramp won't become an inconvenience during play as it could well be opening on top of your opponent's figures.

The ramp will be magnetized when it is finished, for now blue tac does to the job
I got some pictures of the interior, sorry bout the pics, I had to use flash and therefore the colours came out all washed out.
also used an LED on a miniature for the first time:
I painted the interior beforehand so I wouldn't be a hassle when I got round to painting the whole thing.
I kept the colours to a minimum to go with the industrial look.
cheers

Cool interior, especially the led. you gonna have this 'ere skullhamma have some transport capacity, then? Call me crazy, but I personally always love to see some ingenuity of a most orky sort when it comes to adding what shpuldn't be, and in this case an assault component to a big, bad tank. But yes, excellent, and a magnet does sound a good idea.
And so, I, Kaesar II, do exalt, and say "Keep up these fine efforts"

OK, so Necrons are on hold until the new codex comes out.
I picked up an Ork codex...well all I can say is between the sweet options in there and the HUGE potential for conversion and scratchbuilding im an Ork convert...starting to full on feel the power of the WAAAAAAAAGGHHHH.

There is an attitude that not having an insanely optimized, one shot, six stage, omnidirectional, inevitable, mousetrap of an assassin list army somehow means that you have foolishly wasted your life building 500 points of pure, 24 karat, hand rolled, fine, cuban fail. That attitude has been shown, under laboratory conditions, to cause cancer of the fun gland.

I personally like the battlefortress-ee look, because I have been playing orks since the previous editions, the 'new' 20 troop capacity for the BW, plus the new weedy lil' plastic kit, I like my tanks nice n' solid
Just a personal preference

Nevur said dat e' couldn't take it, just dat he can't have things like SAG's or KFF's when he has mega armour equipped.
And a big mek wiffout a KFF and a SAG is going to be seriously under-armed
Well, in other news...
Big update, gave him a Power Klaw, a Zzappy Staff, and not to mention a nice big banner!
