Ello... This little project has taken most of this year to complete... its been a challenge! I would highly recommend getting a pin drill as this makes the process a lot easier - mainly for holding the rear cog wheel and the 3 small road wheels in place when attaching the track pieces. I'm happy with the construction, though ended up with a few bits of track left over - including my green stuff piece!       |

Holy crap! A whole year?! Either way it looks quite good. The shininess of the black is cool, but if I had painted it I probably would have added in some extra spots of colour like having those tusks a bone colour and some of the piping different colours. I probably would hav done a glow effect in the turbine whatsit on the front.
Either way it looks proper orky!

I'm impressed by your patience! Knowing myself I've would trashcan it after 2 days! Really like the orkiness of it!
And if I'm not mistaken, those tracks is from a KV or a Is tank. Or am I completely wrong?
Now, hurry up with the painting! I want to see it done!

love it. I keep wanting to do an ork armoured company, I love the forge world vehicles like this one, just so expensive if you wanted half a dozen...

Damn, I wish I could throw down for one of those. Oh well. Just means I have to not be lazy and scratch build one like a proppa mek would. (Not to disparage Tread's diligence in building/converting this beautiful piece. Also, if it doesn't get painted red in the end, yer a stinkin' grot.)

I will, when my lottery numbers come up tonight And I know that this did not happen, so it's time to turn to the alternate plan we discussed...  Really sweet model, Tread! Can't wait to see the finished result!  |

out of interest what rules do you guys use for your super cannons, I don't have the imperial armour book so I count it as working the same as a basilisk cannon.

The flames have come out well. Looks like it was a good call.

Very nicely done! Very Orky. Liking the red flames Though I think it doesnt quite look finished, maybe more of a "patchwork" of colours would make it have more of an off the scrap heap look. A very nice piece, keep em coming |

That looks pretty scary, Tread.

Now THAT is an Orky vehicle!
It looks like it will shudder apart after the cannons fires one, and yet powerful enough to knock out anything! Great work, Tread. Will it be killing some of Emptys Orks soon?

I'm digging the flames. Empty, you need to get some Imperial Fist shoulder pads looted and get them on your boys. They'd fit in nicely |
