Flying Battlewagon, which is a conversion that was entered into the 2009 Golden Demon awards.

This bizarre flying ork Battlewagon was an entry in the GamesDay 2009 Golden Demon awards.

It uses many parts, but a key one appears to be an Eldar Falcon hull. Not sure if I like it or not. Quite a dramatic pose and quite a good paint job, but there is something that doesn’t sit right with me. Not sure what it is, maybe the concept, I am sure Orks would salvage Eldar equipment, but would they conjure something like this up? Of course this is Warhammer 40K and to be honest most things are possible.

I got this model as a Christmas present, it combines the plastic Battlewagon kit with a resin Supa Kannon. See the full workbench feature on this model.

Drybrushing the Deff Rolla

I did buy the Ork Battlewagon Upgrade Pack and decided to add the Deff Rolla to my Ork Battlewagon. Having given it a black undercoat, I drybrushed it with Tin Bitz.

The next stage was then to drybrush with Boltgun Metal.

Taking the masking tape off

Having undercoated the Battlewagon, leaving the mask on, I gave the model a basecoat of brown paint, using a Humbrol spray. I then removed the masking tape.

I then put the model together with the wheels and tracks to see how it would look.
