These are simply Flakwagons with gunners from the Ork Buggies.
Ork Airfield Defence Force
I have had the following ideas for units in an Ork Airfield Defence Force:
Flak Gun Emplacements – stationary flak weapons (converted Flakwagon Trukks)
TowTrakks – for towing aircraft (converted from Wartrakks)
Heavy Weapon Emplacements – similar to IG version but with Orks

Forge World Sisters of Battle Repressor
This is a picture of the Forgeworld Sisters of Battle Repressor that I took at the recent Bristol Conflict event.
Though I do like the Witch Hunters army concept, as I still have quite a bit of work to do on my Daemonhunters army before I even start on a Witch Hunters army. Having said that I have always thought the Repressor is a really nice model and would make a decent transport for Inquisitorial Stormtroopers.
If I do get a Repressor I would probably add extra armour, but use homemade armour using mesh rather than the Forgeworld armour kits.
Also Forgeworld do make nice Inquisitorial doors for the Rhino which would work well on the Repressor.
Heavy Weapon Ork Buggies towing Big Gunz
Here are two Heavy Weapon Ork Buggies towing Big Gunz.
The Buggies have had their gunner replaced with a Flak weapon from a Flakwagon, whilst one of the Big Gunz is a conversion of a flak weapon from a Flakwagon).
The Buggies were given a black undercoat, dry-brushed with Tin Bitz and Chainmail, details were picked out in red and orks painted green.
The Gunz were given a white undercoat, the black elements (the tires) were painted first, before the rest of the model was painted red. They were then given a thinned chestnut ink wash.

Textured Wallpaper for free…
Textured wallpaper is great for adding texture to flat surfaces.
An easy to get some is to pop to your local DIY store or even department store and get a sample of the wallpaper, you could very easily get at least a metre as a sample.
Pop to every store local to you and you will have more than enough to last you for lots of projects.
Furuta Star Trek Models
I recently talked about how I had found some new Star Trek models from a Japanese company called Furuta.
It would appear the boxes I saw were from the second series of models that the company have released and that my first assumption that they contained only the original series USS Enterprise, it now appears that each box contains a random ship – which makes it annoying if you want to collect the entire set!
