i need some photo's of scratch built burners

ORKY that is

anyone help ?

Hmm... I've got one. But I don't think I have photos of it.

Basically, take the one Shoota in the Boyz box (the one with the sort of ray-gun look to it, with the longer bottom than top barrel cover and the little side vents), chop the barrel a little, remove the magazine. Then take the tip of a disposable pen- one of the hexagonal ones with the smooth caps that have the hole in the end- take the tip, and carefully trim the outer cylinder of plastic from it. You get a really cool nozzle.

I have a bunch of old Cadian IG models. And of course, since its all melta, all the time, the flamers don't get used. So just a little snip to remove the front of the shoota barrel, a little snip of the flamer near the back of the gun, glue them together, add a glyph plate to cover the 'transition', and you get an ork burna on the cheap (because you can get LOTS of IG flamers for cheap.)




Here's a picture of them from the back. The photo quality is so poor I thought I deleted it, but you can see what I was going for.

That airship model is outstanding. Keep up the good work!

thanks mate

i was looking for photo's like this one, but maybe of how they did it so well

Nice a challange from Klaus, not Santa. Love to see your take on the model Wazzoo

I would love to say, "Mine will be bigger and better", but i think i'm just going to say "Mine will be bigger and Different", i'm thinking Crab, rather than spider, i'm also thinking centipede, if i can be assed to make all them legs (think it might be crab)

Go Crab that will look better with Orks (why, I don't know but it will) Plus you could do Grots ridding mechanical shrimps next to it

How about "scorpion", with a huge load of dakka on the tail?

I'm trying to stay away from the Grot side of things, coz I've ran out so will need to go and buy some more.

OOOOOOOOOOOO scorpion ???? now thats an idea, might just have to make that next.

It's just basic shapes layered and a lot of gouging the edges with an xacto.

if forge world can make a centipede you can make one better. plus it would be a nice centerpiece for your army

How about an army of Bugz? Invent a new clan that only uses multi-legged walkers..... Kans, Dreds, wagons, trukks.... That's something to think about! Someone has to do that lol

My primary Battlewagon is called da Boomstompa- it's based on Looted Defiler legs, and features a Killkannon, Big Gun, and 4 Rokkits.

And I built it that way before 6th came out.


Anyways, walker vehicles can look really, really cool.

thanks mate, glad you like


here is my WIP, at this angel you cant real see the pose im going for, i still have 2 legs to go on it and the feeder, which i my just use Burners to make this look, there is still the armour to bang on it too, so really this is a very basic shape at the moment.

that is really, really sexy orky style!
i also really love all the chipped edges you put on everything!

LOOKING GREAT nice detail and loving the roughed up edges, the wire rapped around the claw feet was nice touch.

This is really going to be a great looking beast

What he said x 1 000

I hate you Wazzoo. I really do. I build things and think "Hell, that looks pretty nice" and give myself the thumbs up. Then you come along and make a basic shape, that poohs all over mine

Wow, that's an excellent start!
Super details on the pistons and hydraulics - probably a bit too organized, but most likely that's because my Mek is such a chaotic one
Great start really
So the other two legs will mount the burnas?
Cheers
klaus

Wow really nice detail.

Pivot points, pistons, tubes. Masterful!!!

awesome conversions and painting, but I think you already now that. Keep up the good work.

BTW, this spider is a nice cross of spider and crab:

HOLY SQUIG! These legs look incredibly good, wow! How long did you work on them?

2 days so far

Dood- That is Killer work! Really ACE! I love the pistons and hinges, and joints everywhere, it really looks like it would work! Excellent work Sir!

Ok Spider fan's, day 2 conpleat, back legs on, i made them different to the other six, as they being the back legs they should be a tidg different.

today i will make the feeder legs things, the fangs im going to put to Burners there, i will try make them from scratch, also the pilot is going in, im thinking of using a deathcoppa cut right down, till i do the cutting and put it in there, i'm not sure yet what to do.

ive also start adding some small bits of plating and again, i'm still not sure about it.
