| I lucked out and acquired a Forgeworld battlewagon kit in a trade (thanks, Krum!), this was a big boost in production, to say the least! I was starting to wonder how I was going to finish everything in time (I still am, but less so). Most of the grunt work is already accomplished, so all I have to do is tweak it to my likings. The BW will be equipped with a Zzap gun, two twin linked Rokkit launchas, Deth Rolla/Krusher, extra armor, spikes and blades, force field, grot riggers and red paint. |

At this point it is still quite rough. I am focusing on the general layout before I do any real details (bolts, rivets, damage, repairs and what-not). There will be a second rokkit launcha to the left of the Zzap gun. I managed to crack the left side skirt when trying to un-warp it (oops!) |
|
I have added a buch of extra blades onto the Deth Roller to make it look "extra killy". The drivers compartment is taken from a Forgeworld looted rhino kit (thanks, Oddballz!). Expect to see more spikes and blades in this area. I plan to model the driver and gunners to look similar to my 'ard boyz. |
here are some detail shots on the Force
field. People seem to not like the 'fins', so I may fiddle with it if I have
the time.

Made some progress: I added a lot of weathering overall (damage and pitting), added a LOT of spikes and blades to the deth roller. I continues the low wall along the sides of the troop compartment. A couple of headlights were also added.

A closeup of the deth rolla. I think I might wrap some barbed wire around the shocks. I added a lot of pitting the the rolla, as I see it receiving a lot of punishment.

I gave the side skirts a bit
more history. More to come...
