Description It's been a while since I submitted any of actual 40K models and I was particularly happy with this one.

So yes, this is one of my Warbuggies, I've built all of them so far from bits and pieces I had lying around since the actual models are so damn old and expensive. Most of the body is made of Plasticard based around an old Cavalry base. The wheels came from and old slot car as I long ago ran out of actual Ork wheels. I might go back and do a few touchups as the photos have revealed a few mistakes I didn't notice, damn cameras.

If you're interested, here's a picture of it before It was painted and a look at the next buggy that's awaiting painting

They're not that hard to make, you just need some plasticard and a handful of spare parts.

Thanks a lot.

And if by that you mean the old version of the Trukk then yes, that's where I got it from

oh of course the trukk. in german it is called pikk up. why they translate an english word with an english word?
GW nobody know what is going on in their heads.

Ah, yeah doesn't make much sense really, would assume they'd just use whatever the German word for 'truck' is (I am sadly completely ignorant of the German language) and spell it as an Ork would.

GW rarely feels the need to make sense.

in german it named lastkraftwagen
but every german knows the word truck
german orks sounds like they have a berlin accent
and that is the reason why i am proud to be a berliner^^

for example
german: "Evil Sunz mögen zwei Sachen am meisten: Schnell seun und Zeug plattfahren. Darum sind wir so gut darin"
orky german: "Evil Sunz mög´n zwei Sach´n am meist´n: Schnell sein un´Zeug´s plattfah´n. Darum sin´wa so gut darin"

Well, you can fire one bullet and probably hit or fire 3,000 and a few of them just might.
Quantity sounds pretty good sometimes. 30 enemies, 30,000 shots...

Well it probably would be rocket powered like the Batmobile if they could find somewhere to attach a "uge rokkit".

DAT FRONT SPOKE!

That rusty texture you usually incorperate always adds to the authenticity of the Ork tradition of stealing and scavenging other people's vehicles. I also like the effect of the paint being chipped. Awesomely done, dude!
I await with anticipation for your SKORCHA!!!11!1
