Inspired by Mad Max: Fury Road, I wanted to build a war rig for Inq28 games. The Necromunda Cargo-8 Ridgehauler seemed ideal for my purposes.

I started by building the fuel pod:



Then I built the cab section. I replaced the existing cowcatcher with a dozer blade from a Basilisk kit. I decided to save the crew (and cab roof) for later, as it would be much easier to paint them first and then glue them in place.



Here are all three sections completely built in their basic forms. Still some details left to add:



The complete Cargo-8:



The cab section, with plenty of skulls added:



The cargo section, relatively sparsely decorated:



And the fuel pod, again pretty simple, though there's a loose hose on the opposite side:



Next step: Priming!

Wow, that looks cool!

What a day! What a lovely day! I'll be watching this with interest.

Models gathered in their masses
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot construction
Sorcerer of mind's combustion


Mind-blowing work here. Just looks so cool! Looking forward to seeing it come together.

Primed most of the parts with Chaos Black:



Except the containers, which are primed with Wraithbone:

After some delay, I've drybrushed the parts I expect to stay black with Celstra Grey.

Progress! We're blocking in the basic colors.

I put a few decals on the cargo:

I did some sponge chipping:

Lovely photo references. Your work looks great.

Thank you!

I painted more Leadbelcher. So. Much. Leadbelcher.

Added copious amounts of my homemade carbon black acrylic wash.

I adorned the vehicle with many, many skulls. Now I must paint them. Plenty of Wraithbone was used.

Kitbashing looks delightful. Those models really do extend out a ways, don't they?

I rather hurriedly painted the five crew members. Need to get it done by the end of the year!

Filling in all the little details...

Final assembly of everything that's going to be glued in place.

Looking great Pariah Press.

Thanks CB!

Added rust 'n dust:

Varnish and final assembly:

WITNESS!!!

That turned out pretty damn cool! I love all the weathering on it, makes it look like it's been traversing the wastes for a long time and yet it's such a mighty vehicle that it'll continue to do so for years to come.

Well done Pariah Press. It has really nice weathering. Loads of detail. Exalted.

Cheers,

CB

Lovely work on fine models, especially the weathering.
