Title: Bluu in da Phaes (updated 18 July 2009)
Post by: moc065 on June 8, 2009, 02:28:34 PM
I know I spell Knob incorrectly, its part of the fun.

Hey guys, I play a number of armies and here is where I am taking my latest Ork list (full convertion theme with lots of AOBR)

I got a fair bit built/designed and loads of older stuff to use as proxies until the new stuff gets converted; but I finally got some primer done on some of the stuff converted and I wanted to know if I am going in a decent direction with them...

Bluu in da Phaes @ 1K

I would add battle damaged and patched work to the lower hull on the front and the size (the non gw parts). At the moment they look too clean, but other than this, this trukk is truly awesome!

Hey! Isn't that the Clampett's truck from the Beverly Hillbillies TV show?? I'm sure many of you are too young to know what I'm talking about....

Great looking conversion!

I agree, though it could work with just a rugged/rusty paintjob.

Thanks guys, the comments are appreciated.. the front end is from a 33 Ford. I don't think that I will give it any Battle Damage as the paint should suffice, and this Trukk is Rock 'Ard so it wouldn't get hurt much anyway.

Any ideas for the second Trukk or my Warboss on Bike ?

So, wait... Those bikes are what, hoverbikes? Snowmobiles? Waterskis? Whatever they are, they rock.

If you want Trukk ideas, why not make a trukk that's like one of those, scaled up? Y'know, a Mek saw one of the bikes and thought... "I fink i'd like wonna dem fings, 'cept bigga 'n blastia!"

Thanks for your comments.

The bikes were Deffkopta's, now there Def-Bikes... one Ski and one Prop (and in a weird Ork way they should work well enough on the Battlefield ~~ well actually they are bike size and the unit works very well)... I sorta like your idea for the Trukk, so lets run with it.

How about a trukk with 2 ski's in the front for steering, then have the rear end done up either a Half Track style (snow Mobileish), or maybe go the whole Hover thing and do a set of props or turbines ?... idea's, drawings, anything to help out (or tell me I am whacked and we go back to the drawing board).

that truck is just orksome! i love it... where did you get the parts for the front end?

as for a second one... hmm...

i like the idea of a british style rubbish truck... the ones with the enclosed rubbish compartment and rubbish crusher... like this rather orky one:

(https://www.40konline.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fsingaporeseen.stomp.com.sg%2Fphoto%2FgetMediumSizePhoto.do%3Fid%3D63154&hash=7ade5bd3b3cb2fd201b6fb2fc08c394b3bb32c55)

of course, that might not work so much as an open topped transport!

something like this might work much better... plus - lots of wheels are cool... and must make it go faster right?

Like I said, the front end is from a modle car kit "33 Ford"

O!nk, I like the bottom Idea, with a bit of the Snow jobber posted by 'Steammotion'

I'll see what I can pull together.

PS.. The Garbage trukk idea is more Battlewagon if you ask me (closed in)..

The idea of snow vehicles for an ork army really rocks.

Surfing the net you can find amazing designs for tracked vehicles that you could use as inspiration for your trucks and bikes. Here I give you an example.

(https://www.40konline.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.menstech.com%2FUserFiles%2FImage%2FAugust%2520mid%2F082606hyanide%281%29.jpg&hash=3e52dd8737d2e59846d7758749215239419a7314)

I hope it helps.

EDIT: By the way, you can also find a lot of good inspiration in the old GorkaMorka websites.

Imagine this front end...

(https://www.40konline.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.instablogsimages.com%2Fimages%2F2008%2F08%2F12%2F9_PFQH2_58.jpg&hash=78b706465a8752470f59bcec6b295a0c24fb98e1)

With the arse end done up like Oink's truck idea

(https://www.40konline.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wired.com%2Fimages_blogs%2Fphotos%2Funcategorized%2F2007%2F07%2F23%2Ftruck.jpg&hash=d9cdb7d22e2395168891ca8982063c3f438ead8d)

Now that would be a good Ork Trukk.... I think... and better than the hover idea.... prabably more do-able conversion wise as well.

And then the Warboss goes straight onto something like this

(https://www.40konline.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.menstech.com%2FUserFiles%2FImage%2FAugust%2520mid%2F082606hyanide%281%29.jpg&hash=3e52dd8737d2e59846d7758749215239419a7314)

Only more Orky...

Yup, thats were I think that I am going... now to try and find some Tracks... Tread heads help me out please (or somethin on the shelf is getting chopped up for parts... Wait, I have an extra Rhino or two... those could lend plenty of parts, and the tracks)....

Cheers

hmm... rhino panels over the ork trukk chassis could be used to give a good looking rear section...

for the front you are going to want to create something that looks similar to the techmarine thunderfire cannon... thingy... magigy...

I'm sure that with all these ideas, and moc's good work (at least for what I've seen) this army will lead to something completely amazing.

For the tracks you should take a look at you local hobby/model store, above all some of those that sell tank models for World War. One I visited in my city had spare tracks with all the necessary for making the tracks with the shape you wanted. Also with you good green stuff work and a bit of plasticard, sure you will get what you want.

Good luck, mate.

I am going to try and stick to mostly GW parts for all of this army.... and the Rhino got completely dis-assembled today with very few issues, I also got the truck and all those 33 Ford modle parts as well, so the "Trukk" will begin fabrication next week.

The Warboss Bike will happen later as I am still gathering parts... So far I have another Defkopta, wheels, some Track, and some SM bike parts as well as several AOBR Boss's to work with... etc etc... but I am actually considering adding some Vyper Parts as well to "high-tech" it a bit more... something along the lines of the SM High-Tech bike I did earlier if I can figure it out and pull it off.

Cheers... and watch for updates on the Trukk next week.

I know I was supposed to building a trukk (and I am)... but my tiny Ork Brain got sidetrakked and I finished up the Squad of slugga's to go into the first trukk.

Not a load of work, as 11 of them are striped down old Goeff Ork's dat only needed der gun barrels drilled out, and some cleaning... Da Knob on da udder hand took a few minutes extra... tell me whats you all tink of dees guys, and I tink dis is da direction me Knobs in units are going to be going, as I like em, and I got enough crap to do the 3 more I needs (simular at least ~ no more Goeff Orks, 1 squad of dem is enough).

Trukk got its chasis chopped and front half flipped over to allow for higher track system, Trak rollers have started their assembly, and the Engine is being put together and transmission modidfied to fit into new chasis... the Glue is drying on this stuff so tomorrow sees more work (and I'll try and post pics).

Holy Gorko!!!! How old are those orks? 10 years? almost 15? I still can remember them from a friend, but I did not see them for a long time. Good stuff anyway. It is always a pleasure seing those old models.

The nob conversion is really good. I would have liked more with a Power Claw, but tha double chainsword also is really good.

The only thing I'm not completely sure about, is the combination of a new style nob with the old style orks. Wouldn't it be better to convert and old fashion or into a nob? For what I have seen in your works you have good skills with Green Stuff, and also you seem to have a lot of ork bits, soit shouldn't be that difficult.

Thanks and an Old School conversion up to Knob Status has crossed my mind... but I can do one later if I find another Goeff Ork to play with (ha ha)...

OK here are the updates on the latest Trukk.
Trakk system starting, and the Frame... Flip the front end over...

OK, I found the Trakk system a little too long, so it got trimmed as I added the third Wheel (trakks come next after I booil them to bend into shape)... I also got the Engine put together, flipped the exhausts to fit them in there with the frame etc, and actually got it all to work well enough so far. Here are todays pics.

I like the Idea of the crazy Rims for the Trakk system, and the size feels good for now; bit it will be triky to fit the axle etc and get the rear wheels to fit a the right height.... once that is done I will proceed onto the Cab and Engine bonnet (was thinking of using the 33 Fords bonnet to go over the enging with a spare Grill I have as well (Hot-Rod-ish)... the Cab will be tricky though, so any ideas are welcome.

Comments and Critiques are always welcome.

The Mek Boyz have been very busy, and the second Trukk is aproching its concept.

I added the Tracks, and built the front cab up including the driver and gunner (on the box)... but I also gave them doors and an engine bonnet (still need to do left side exhaust).. I then added the rear cargo box (with O:nks garbage trukk idea stuck in my brain ~ btw) by using the Rhino and cutting it up a fair bit (more room inside, etc)... I also added side panels to match the wheel wells and few other tidbits here and there.

I still need to do the roll bars and a few other items, but the basic concept is there now... Ork Garbage Trukk built for the snow. Oh and I think that I will do cam nets over the Roll Bars of both Trukks using first aid Gauss, so they look more imposing but are still "Open Topped"

Here are the pics.

Those pictures are a pity, altough it seems that the model is really on the good direction. Also I can see the pictures we were posting have definitively been a good base for inspiration.

Woo, I think I missed this thread.

I love the bikers Moc.
I'm not feeling the trukk, but I'm sure it will look 'smashing' after it's done and more Orkified.

My 7 Cents.

Thanks for the replies guys... The trukk sorta grew bit by bit, and with the Cam net, etc it looks a lot better. Its near completion now, even added suito working side doors ,,, (so pics will be soon)...

Warboss is also coming along: used another Defkopta, but wheels/trakks/something creative will happen. Also used the AOBR Boss, so its been tricky to get him to fit (cut more off and Greenstuff should do it though ~ again pics will come soon)

Cheers

I like the Herse style shifter,
The fact that its not all glued so painting won't be to bad,
All the doors actually work, and the hinges are unique and I think there Orky,
It still looks like a trukk, but has the garbage truck and snow machine incorperated,
And the two of them are about the same size, and very different from each other.

Feel free to comment, and the Warboss work has already begun (pics soon).

Thanks guys, I really do appreciate the comments.

Work on teh Warboss has progressed well, with the front end of the bike near completion, and the boss coming along well enough so far, I even found a little stash of Tracks I had tucked away, so the rear end should go well enough.

I am also building the Shoota boys to go into the second trukk; thus I should have the first 1K done, for the Newly renovated
Bluu in da Phaes
Incedentally, I was thinking of keeping the army mostly white... Red flames on vehicles of course (so they can go faster). And the Orks being a lighter shade of green... Bluu in da Phaes of course (so they look meaner ~ its their power colour).

More pics in a day or two, as I am renovating the dining room as well.

Cheers

Here is da start of da Warboss's Bike.

Note dat I used da skids for his steering, the old rotars are for da trakks to go onto, and I will use anuder set or two for da front end of da trakk. I also have da handle bars done and da boss's torso chopped (for the most part)... and I think that its starting to gets its own feel and look to it already; but tell me what you think.

Once da Boss is done, I will have 1K built... then its on to some paint, while I continue the builds with a squad of Defkopta's, two more squads of boyz (in boots), a Big Mek, some killa kans, maybe some Kommandos, and some Grots (as I have 30 or so of the olde metal ones laying around still). Oh and I will try and do as much as possible from the AOBR box sets, as this is a Cheap army build.

The Warboss is most certainly going to be trakked.... And here is the proff, as I actually finished him. (he is primed white now too; but you get the ides)

He is pinned and a fair bit of greenstuff was needed to get his waste and wrist to match up decently...

I will also post some pics of the units, and the army as it stands... at 1K.

I really tried to stikk to AOBR for many of the items, and aside from the old Geoff Orks (which I love) and some Grots (which I happen to have), I will build as much as I can from AOBR as to keep it cheap...

But now I am off to continue to build it up to 1250, 1500, 1750 +++ as I feel the need for about 2500 pts of Orkies eventually. 5 Deffkopta's, 30 shoota's, 20 slugga's, Big Mek w/KFF, half dozen Killa Kans, 15 Kommandos includine Snikrot, some Grots, and any thing else I have the bits left over to do up... when all that is done.. I should have enough to do some Knobs, or Loota's too; but their way in the future...

Comments, suggestions, etc.. at always welcome.

Cheers.

Mini report, BIDP vs Necrons (Pitched Battle, 2 objectives, 4x6)

Necrons
(200) Lord with RO and VOD
(140) 5 Immortals
(180) 10 Warriors
(180) 10 Warriors
(60) 5 Scarabs
(235) Monolith

995pts, 2 SU`s, 6 KP`s, PO = 6/26 with 32 figures.
     Now the battle went well enough as I face the Necrons and simply went for phase out (anyone using a Monolith at 1K really needs to consider his choices better, or have some seriously developed tactics). I actually spllit my force into 3 sections (Boss and Knobs, Trukk Slugga's, and Trukk Shoota's). I had the Trukk shoota's hang close to my objective and shoot what they could reach, (popped a few scarabs and scored)... The Trukk Slugga's drove like crazied Orks to get into it with some Necron Warriors (I killed a few but actually lost the squad on his return round as the Monolith sucked them outta CC and re-rolled their WBB's prior to rapid firing my Slugga's)... The Boss and Knobs finished off the scarabs with their dakka, then took a lot of his firepower in his round (Warriors, Immortals and Lord), they then ripped through a squad of Immortals and a Warrior Squad (Lord attached) on my next round.. and finished up by taking care of the remaining Warriors to phase him out on the start of turn 5 (and would have scored his objective as well)... The Monolith did help him with re-rolled WBB and pulling Warriros out of CC (once)... but in reality it dropped a Trukk, returned some Warriors, and helped me to phase him out faster. In my opponents defence.. he did the right thing to VOD the Warriors and up the number of shots into the Knob-Squad.. but the Orks were too tough on that day, and it made for an easier multi-assault on my return.

My 1750 varient has done rather well on Vassal, so I am looking forward to playing actual bigger games, and the 2.5 list does look like fun too.

Comments and suggestions are always welcome, and thanks so far for all the kind words.

Cheers.
