This muddy, dinged-up, industrial orange beast took me a little over 2 weeks of evenings to build from flat & round stock, with enough GW parts to hopefully make it look more like a manufactured model than something that started out as a heap of while plastic.

The curved front of the hull is from a Basilisk, the engine cowling is Rhino parts, there's a few doors and bits and bobs on there to decorate it and then the worst ever job of applying mud effects to ruin. .er.. polish it all off. I'd intended it to be about Rhino-sized but it's as big as a zoggin' Land Raider and I'm fine with that.

I haven't done any 40k builds since the Trukk model came out (and haven't done much since The-Waaagh faded away) so rather than ease slowly back into it, I challenged myself to build a classic bit of Ork history with a few updates. Hope ya like it.

Excellent scratchbuild always liked the Gobsmasha. With the mud effects probably a bit more thought abot gravity wouldhave helped basically they'dd concentrate at the base of the wheel as mud would fall off the top.

Great model.

Love the vibes - great yellow too

I zoggin love that mate - great work!

DUDE

Beat me to the punch, I'm going to build one of those myself as soon as I can get enough lids for the wheels Great weathering, really sold it
