I just finished this after 2 long weeks of constant painting, I personally think I did pretty well. Although I really wanna know what you guys think! TELL ME!!!




Its even Magnitized!!

You need to get some simply green and water together in a bucket and submerge the thing for another two weeks. Start over.


JOKING> Seriously this thing looks great. Way better than the one I junked up a few years ago. Your reds are amazing. I also like the blue triangles hanging down. They almost look like they were pieces off of a ultramarine tank or something. I am glad you magnetized it as well. That will come in handy especially if you ever buy some of those Forgeworld upgrades.

I was in a good mood. I am glad my little joke spread the mood. You want to know something else? I have actually thought about stripping a model down completely with simply green even if I thought the paint job was really good. I bet if I did that and painted it again, the second paint job would be even better. Too scared to try it though. I might try it on that battlewagon I alluded too though.

Fantastic! Lovely red, with just the right amount of grime, well done!

Wow. Lots and lots of detail and color changes. That must of been a PITA. Very nice work, really impressive. The only thing I think could be added would be some kind of dirt weathering to the wheels like it's been driving through terrain but that isn't really necessary, that's more personal taste I think.

I was thinking about doing some weathering. I don't know any ways to, care to share?

Dat's wun sweet ride!

I love the slight variations in the red. That really sells the model.

My only suggestions would be to paint over the decals (which show a lot of decal edges) and to consider doing a little more paint scrapes on the business end of the wagon. You know the orks are going to be trading paint with enemy armor with this battlewagon, so I would have a few more scrapes painted on the ram.

It's a great color scheme and a great execution. Really, really nice.

There's a ton of how to's on youtube.

Waow! This is an awesome piece of work. My Battle Wagon looks a little bit like yours. Yours just look 10 times more appealing and alot more interesting to look at! How did you make the different variations of red on the wagon? But deffinetly nice and awesome work! You should be proud to field such a thing

Well done, nice work

The Red makes the orks stand out really well but where are the grot riggers

Incredible work. I love the tone of the red you chose. The detail is excellent, I love the weathering too. Needless to say, that was 2 weeks well spent!
