Skullhamma Battlefortress 1

Using the Stormlord as a base for a Skullhamma Battlefortress, I started to chop and hack here and there in the usual Orky fashion! I lengthened the sides slightly and cut away the half wheel pieces toward the inside of the chassis in order to fit full wheels, raising the whole model slightly. This allowed me to use some Blood and Skulls Industry Krusher Pattern 1.0 Tank Treads.

Skull'amma:



Digging through my Bits Boxes, I found some left over Battlewagon pieces and used those to create a Troop compartment towards the rear for some Boyz. The Skullhamma Kannon is made from a mix of parts from the original Stormlord kit, Bommer, Trukk and Stompa. The main barrel is plastic tubing from thermal till reciept rolls! (Space Marine used for size comparison.)

Warbuggies 1

As there was and still is no new model for the Ork Warbuggy, except for the old Gorkamorka one, I wanted to try something different.

Looking around on the internet at the time, very few people had made Rat Rods out of the Trukk kit as 'Counts As' Warbuggies, so I went ahead and started chopping and building.

This unit has 3 Rat Rod Buggies, but for now here is a look at the first one I started building;

Sticking with the Deffskulls theme I also started to do the classic Looted Landspeeder to Buggy conversion, but the first build only ever got as far as this;

With some slight trimming the Kromlech Ork Driver fits nicely!

Battlewagons 1

Following the previous theme of Looted Wagons, I felt I needed a Land Raider Battlewagon, any Ork Deffskull Warband isn't complete without one!

Again this was picked up cheap on eBay badly assembled, in the typical Ork fashion I tore it apart and started rebuilding it.

Land Raider Battlewagon:




Due to already having a couple of Battlewagon kits, I utilised a lot of parts from one of them and came up with this design. 

With the remainder of the kit I wanted to do something different with the next Battlewagon and came up with the idea of a Double Tracked Battlewagon.

Double Tracked Battlewagon:




I chopped the front wheel mount areas of both chassis off and glued both track mounting sections together to form the new chassis. 

I had to lengthen the rear bed slightly due to the new chassis length, so built both rear beds and then chopped them where seemed best and glued them in place. I made the 'ard Case removable and had to lengthen it slightly to match the bed.


There were a few gaps here and there but some plasticard and Orky plating will fix that.





Whilst building the cab I then had the thought of bulding an interior with full 'gubbins and worky bits' so made the roof removable.

The rest of it has been built pretty much as it comes out the box.

Since these pictures I have done a little bit more to it, so look out for the next update!
