Very nice work guys.. Thanks just the motivation i need to get my Meks butt working on stuff agian. Agian very nice work to all
Thanks for the words of encouragement typhon, we're all here to help each other out, and I for one am glad that this thread is inspiring your inner Mek. I'll be throwing a couple teef your way, just as a kind thanks and also in hopes that next time you'll be joining in on the Scrapyard madness.
*looks at Cheesy's post, Long Whistle* Wow that Rocker Wagon really does the gubbinz! Great work Cheesy! I know I'd like to see some more pics of this beauty, and I'm sure that others will agree on that as well, but I have the feeling your holding out on some of the finer detail pics until after that bad boy is expertly painted.
And everybody be sure to give Valar a hand for finishing every one of his pledges! Better paint work than my best, and not too shabby of konverzions either, I rather like the poor Grot that's about to get squished underfoot!

Projekt Update
GAH!!! 1 Week Left and I don't have any Paint on stuff!!! I'ze need to find a way to double time it between pick up rehearsals, work, and painting the room that is about to start being rented with people moving in on Saturday!!! Mork and Gork Help ME!
Ok, spazz out is over, I'll find a way to do it, I have to I'm a Boss, and I'm not
that far behind. I've got some WIP stuff for you all to take a gander at, so lets start with the SAG Spiderz...
Here's 3 of them, each approx 65-70% complete. The one on the far right is the prototype one in case anyone was wondering. They're coming along, but the next two are a bit more impressive.
This SAG utilizes a classic Ork Maxium of more = better, at least in terms of Spinny bitz. It's not bad, but he still needs quite a few gubbinz (although not as much as the other 3
And here's the 5th SAG, the most complete at the moment, and only one so far with some wirework. I'm rather glad to have found a large bundle of old wire while cleaning the house, and I must admit I can't believe I never thought of twining a couple wires together before, it makes the wires detail look even more effective than ever before.
What good would I be without a group shot though?
But that's not all that I've been working on. I've been putting in more than a few hours on the big scratchbuilds of this challenge, the Big Trakks, and I recently figured out how to allieviate a bit of my lack of GW gray problem
Here you can see my new 'turret', a Big Shoota Boy with a modified base that can fit on any of my newfangled rotating turrets, as well as stand alone on the tabletop. With 2 of these guys on a Big Trakk, I can switch them into the Spanna Squad to have a proper 20 squad of Shootas for the standard Dex.
I also thought it'd be nice to see where I'm at in the builds with the two Big Trakks.
As you can see, there's still quite a lot of work to be done overall. I still need 1 SAG spider, finish/build all their SAGs as well as Cybork detailing and kustomized Basing, add the Trakks to the vehicles as well as their weapon systems + trim the side platforms down to fit the proper scale, and paint the whole lot including the Kopta, Warboss, Meks and Spanna Squad. It's not like I needed sleep anyway (although a few extra hours of sunlight would be awfully nice)
Peace
