Yeah, the OP says july 10 2012, but I'm thinking of making that last entries and making the 8th the deadline.

Yay i can do my bike! Tell you what i will try and get some WIPs ASAP as my build will probably be simplest.

I very much like the imaginative use of card in that battlewagon. Think i will be using similar parts for mine (Monkey trolls lego wheels have given me an idea lol).
Also i just found the solitary 40k ork in my entire collection, yas!

yeah, I know what it's like trying to work with just a few orks. All I've got is the AOBR orks, and I can't use the warboss as he's being turned into ork's version of santa!

Also, does anyone know of any gretchin models that make good pilots or even ork ones as modelling normal one to fit is taking me a long time.

Why is every one making santa...
as for the gretchin query, the plastic gretchin box has some grots that could easily be konverted ta do da job!

Because santa is awesome! And that klaw is perfect for holding a snowball. Plus, since i don't play orks, with a little fishing line he will be a christmas tree ornament!

^

Yeah, I made one of them last year, haven't painted him yet
whenever I go to my gaming club, loads of other young ork players rush around to get a glimpse of him

anyway...
lets get back on topic!

Mat can you put me down for a battle wagon on the list as well, im making it anyway.

Sure

thanks mate

Dat's ok
Now then, you may have noticed I changed the OP a bit, mainly adding a new link to Arakasi's trukk comp.
Anyway, we need more buddin' meks!

You mean my battlewagon?

Supose I might as well show some of my entries (not the RuzzBot plans yet, though)

Converted Warbiker Boss:


No Pics of the Deff Kopta yet...

im gonna start concept drawings soon

Goody!
I'm still doing mine for the RuzzBot...

im gonna do them on monday in school!

you are?
Hmm, thats an idea...
of course it's a risk...
maybe...

I've finished concept plans for the head, hammer, basic outline, and some of the krew.
I'm working on the rest of da krew now.
Then I'll work on the gun drawings.


Ohh, and I bodged up my measurements
the heighest point on the Savage is 85.5cm

I was wondering if the model has to be painted as well for this competition? I'm not the speediest builder but I'm even slower with the painting part (Even with Whalemusic helping me)

Yeah I here you sum1
You don't have to, but it would be nice if it was.
Anyway, just try and if you don't finish, there's always the next one!

so it doesn't have to be painted?
yay!

But if you are able to (start) painting it, then you should!

Just thought I'd ask, does any other meks (orks or otherwise) want to join this ork vehicle building competition?

Out of interest does it have to be for 40K I've just finished scratch building an AI force and am planning on doing a BFG Ork fleet. Would that be a suitable entry?

Yeah, I suppose you can enter it.
It can be from 40k and any 40k spin-off game (although it will have to go in a separate catagory

may we see your plans?

sure, once I upload them

Um, ok after much thought i have decided not to build the savage, it would be to big and complex for me, a simple 14 year old to attempt. i am sorry to dissapoint anyone.

I will however build a landa

im sorry to dissapoint anyone.

Ok, putting you down for landa.
Taking you away from the depths of insanity (if you hadn't relised I put insane next to yourname under the SAVAGE)

Thanks a lot sorry to be awkward!

That's ok mate!

So I've started entertaining thoughts of building a Mega Gargant, been scribbling plans on paper. You might as well put me down for it as there is a whole year and more importantly no entrance fee.
