Back at Xmas a relative got me a new Ork Battlewagon so I set to making it post apoccy. The work on it so far includes a cab, a shield on the gun, most of the Orky stuff shaved off and the wrecking ball assembly removed. Here is the gunner, he is a mix of mordenhiem and cadian bits with a westwind biker head. Looks nice and wastelandy dont he? I kept the boarding ramps as this vehicle is going to be used in road piracy actions. I added extra bits to the roll cage and some goodies to the back. The rear shows a nice rolled up tarp. The other side with resin goodies. I am not too sure about the tyres on it. I dont like the spikes on the wheels and I am debating to shave them off. CnC welcome.

I think that was GW's spike fetish coming in to play there ("How do you know's its a GW figure? It has spikes on for no explicable reason!") Apart from that, it looks pretty damned snazzy! I'm looking forward to seeing it in paint!

	The sun went down and the ground started sort of grinding. A blinding light tore across the sky. A cyclone swept the landscape and left it completely flattened out. And several twirls of smoke unfolded like gigantic flowers. The way the morning broke was quite unusual.

Thats it they are coming off. Thankfully the wheels are removable so it shouldnt be too much of a pain to do.

I think they make nice little wasteland buggies or personal transports. At around £1 a car you cant complain too much. Get routing through the toy car bins at your toy store. Note: the weapons on the vehicles are a class higher at hotwheels scale than at 28mm. A nice little rig from the Sungods auto gang and was a Hotwheels Greased Gremlin. Its got a flamer and a heavy pistol mounted on the roof. It needs more dirt and rust and perhaps a name change. This little rig could seat two behind each other, or it could hold some cargo. Its a Matchbox dune buggie. Nice little sword on it for running into soft targets. A bolt pistol is on the roof. This weapon would count as some sort of auto shotgun. It needs rust and more dirt. This rig can also happily seat two 28mm minis and is a hotwheels Rollcage. There is a machine gun on the front mount and a 40K RT era rocket launcher. The rocket launcher will have to go, maybe a twin LAW or LMG will be mounted instead. This needs more dirt and rust. This machine was a hotwheels 1/4 mile Coupe. Makes a nice little roadster. There is a las pistol on the front spar and a 40K RT-2nd Ed las cannon on the roof. Needs rust and dirt. I might remove the weapons and fit something else. This is a WW2 puma based mobile field gun. Or it was. It became a heavy for Axels and Alloys. If I tweak it and remove the gun it will make a nice little ATV. I might be tempted to donate this to the Smoggers. This is a majorette chevorette Corvette. What do you think to the size? It looks a wee bit small, but it matches up scale wise to a 28mm version of the car. I found this Phatwheels car at tesco for a massive 79p. Looks interesting. Not too sure what to do with it though.
