HAZZER & Awesome: thanks!

Oadie: That's a great compliment for me, humbled

monkey: I already chopped a part off the back side, It's the one in front of the dakka turret eheh. I don't plan in any more cuts really.

Dabedman: cheers mate, I need that kind of support and I'll wait to find mi copyright pieces in your minis. Thanks for the shout on the blog too.

I'm planning to go ahead with the half truk, while I finish the few details on the first ten hardboyz, then an other rush of hardboyz and then who knows, I'm waiting for bits

Got a bit of work on the half truk.

C&C are welcome

I'm sure you already know, but be sure to leave the top easily disassembled! Its pretty hard to paint the driver through that little slit,

cheers mate, I didn't glue anything yet eheheh

Hmm i would say more armor plates on that jeep!

Count on It, now I'm working on the dakka and then the engine, after that, only armor

Looks really cool! love it!

More work on the Truk, added the dakka and the gunner with bluetack, plus a little fella eager to shoot sum hummiez.

What do You think about the position of the gunner?







Thanks for checking!

Looks really cool!

This looks better and better.

position is fine, what i really like though is THOSE GUNS, DAKA DAKADAKADAKADAKADAKADAKA DAKA DAKADAKA DAKA.....DEAD.

very nice, liking the face on the front as well

Yes Bigfish, I'm pretty pleased with the dakka on this model

TaWaaaagh and Hazzer, thanks.

Here also some progrss with the hardboyz paint job. (I actually have 10 in this state, but I'll show You only a teaser )

I think your 'Aardboyz would be an excellent opportunity for you to custom build some simple armor to set them apart from regular boyz. Thigh plates would work nicely and they'd be easy to do with bits of plastic tubing, plasticard or green stuff.

Thanks Git, but they are already apart from the rest of the boyz.
They are the only ones with shoulder plates (also looted from SM).

What about the coloring? Any other tips for the next bunch that You can see at this stage?

Not fully sold on the banner-waving gunner yet, but it's certainly cool, so I'll run with it

Also loving that front shot, with the gaping maw

Armour's looking good on th'ardboyz, but like Gits, I reckon you could have a bit more armour on there to beef 'em up a bit.

The Ork Glyph plates are also good for 'eavy armour. Is the colour red or orange?

Blazing orange all the way!

I understand, I'll see what I can do with a bit of extra armor then.
Can You please give an example about the extra armor done with plasticard?

Thanks for stopping by guys

P.S.: Monkeytroll, the banner will be attached to the turret, so is the gunner that hold himself to the banner

I'm not sure about the orange pants.... think the orange would have more impact if it was limited to the armor and weapons...

I love that turret on the 'aff-trak! And the 'ard boyz are pretty cool, the chipped paint detail on their armor is very well done.

Thanks for the replies.
Git: I will use the orange on trousers on a few models only (2 out of 10 at the moment and probably an other 3 for the next 19 boyz), but I get your point and I'll be sure to not overdo the color. I want to try to paint different kinds of higlights with a wide range of colors on this squad and having fun on It at the moment.

About the extra armor, I decided that GS will be and GS is, so expect some modification at soon I'll recive It in the mail.

Sounds like a good plan Selvaggio, I'll look forward to seeing your work!

Very nice work! I love the kopta-kan conversions, very imaginative, and very orky.

Check out my P&M blog... I think our warbosses might be distantly related!

Like the 'ard boyz, orange is always good!

Looing good! I'm liking the chips of paint on the ard' boyz!

So, I discovered to have some GS around and I jumped on the attempt of build extra armor on a spare harm, here the pics.

cool, you going to the rest of him like that then now?

Looks good - might be worth trying to cast those if you are going to use a few...

Yes I know, I need more GS first and this prototype is built on the harm tough...

I'll try one on the Nob that will lead the hard boys, on his hip, wish me luck please eheheh

Looks good, but I wouldent bother doing this for a whole mob of orks! I it would just take too long!

Okay, I see that now, all's good there then

Nice job on the armour plate
