Well this first one was meant to of been finished Monday night. However I had no free time for it either Sunday or Monday and only a few hours since.
As such it'll be Friday probably before it is finished, but I thought I would do a quick update now.
Turret has had some more armour plates added (on the rear half), the Big Shootas are now magnetised - though the barrels need to be drilled out yet, and the Kommanda is done and magnetised. I had to rebuild his shoulder a bit and reposition his hand to get it to lie correctly.
Alas you may notice there is no hatch yet, I am waiting for a new circle cutter to arrive before doing it as my existing one died without hope of resurrection a week or so ago.
At the front the drivers viewport has been added (though may change slightly yet) and the front supports for the reinforced ram are in place including the GS welds.
Underneath the remaining gaps from the crappy build job have been covered up with some Orky GS welds.
The rear access ramp is in place but I need to add the lowering mechanism (something simple and straightforward). The original Chimera mechanism is no longer used, they are just therefor the hinge, Orky teknology has replaced the need for them.
And a quick pic with the turret in place.
Very nice! Love the work you've been doing on the wagons, really gets me thinking about starting another ork army. Must... Resist...
ReplyDeleteKeep up the great work!
The wagon looks cool but I'd like to suggest if you could raise the orc a bit higher. :D

ReplyDeleteCheers for the comments.
ReplyDeleteMordian: Go on, you know it makes sense.
BRA: I actually want him lower, but due to Ork body shape that is the lowest i could get him. Ideally I wanted him peeking out but I had to compromise.
lone dirty dog: I won't put be doing an update on the Vets until I have the backpack arrive from the States.
