Start to finish custom ork trukk

 This is the model I started with. The original plan was to make a buggy out of it but as I progressed the scale was just to far off from what I felt was reasonable. But as I was contemplating how to shrink it and using my actual ork trukk to determine what size it should be I realized it just about fit as a trukk so that's what it is and I am still building the buggy out of some of the spare tiers and scrap I had after I was done with this. 

 I started with striping some of the junk off and cutting off the cab to bring down the size

 Then I cut the bed of the trukk and knocked about of the half off of it.

adding a driver at least a first test fit

 adding some spacers to put a flat bed on

 the start of the bed

 chopping the top and adding the sides

this was supposed to be the start of the rokket launcher base but a lot of this ends up getting chopped back off

Ork Trukk part: III

finished the trukk today I believe I went a bit overboard with the rust and mud but it looks used for sure.
I love what games workshop  has done with all the new Ork kits they just look great the just need to get around to replacing the few old ones left in the line like the warbuggy and wartrakk they look as bad as the dark eldar before there over haul. But that does give us a good reason  to kit bash them out of other things so I wont wine to much.

Ork Trukk part: II

Now that warmachine is all painted up and ready to play it's time to get back to the buniness of the WAAAAAA!!!! some of you might remember that I was trying to paint up 500 points of Orks for an escalation league. Well I  decided at the last second to not buy the new big rule book and wait for the starter set.  That caused my painting on them to stop dead in its tracks with only 2 models to go. Now it is time to fix that and get going again.

The truck looks better each time I add a new color and I think I am finally done baseing all of it. Time to wash it and go back to detail it.   

orcs update

This is what I have gotten done today just a little base coating and base work they look really terrible but most everything I paint starts like this. lets just hope I have time to get them to look at least as good as the boys before the first game of the league.

This is way behind the curve right now but I need it done asap so there should be a lot of progress  soon
