I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite thread on DakkaDakka.

how to make a scratch built hatch for you Orky Army.

First off get some 0.1mm plastic card, I've tried my best to make the hole thing out of the same sized card, so to keep it very simple, cut 3 1inch by 1inch squares out

Stick 2 of them together and dill holes in each corner, this needs to be bigger than the plastic rod you will be using later to make it look like big rivets in the holes. the stick the last bit of card to it.

Now with your GW knife, roughen up the sides like I'm doing, this will make it look like its been cut with a welding torch.

Cut up some more card, this is going to make the sides of the hatch, so up to you really how high up you want your hatch to sit.

Build up the sides like I'm doing.

Now make some re-enforcements just like I've done and stick them on, you may need to file them a little just like i had to.

do this on both sides, you can make the base bigger, and do this on all 4 sides, up to you.

Now file the side at an angle, this is where the hatch will sit, it also makes it easier to stick and stronger.

in the picture above there are some tubs and rods cut to size and ready to be stuck on like in the picture below, these are going to make the hinges.
i also filed down a little of the hinge to make a flat area to stick the hatch, just makes it stronger again.

make the hatch doors to size and stick it on, also make up so detail, ie I've put some card inside the hatch to make it look a bit more real.
the area's highlighted are area that again I've made look like they have been cut with a welding torch, just do this again with you modelling knife.
These bit will be stuck to the out side of the hatches.

Cut a small bit of Tub, the same stuff as before, this will make part of the hatch handles.

then cut some bits like i have and stick on like handles.

make some rivets now by cutting a fin peace of card (square) just bigger than a smallest plastic rods you have, you may need to us you modelling knife to pick these up at they should be very small.

are now paint.




hope you like, just file down the edges before you paint as this will help it not look so new.

Wow just wow.

some guys have just so much talent at their disposal...man!!!

Once again great walk through top work so clean and great finished hatch, now the buggy how to

Best tut on the net, glad You decide to share your talent, thank You again!
