While massed infantry can overwhelm the foe, it often falls to Heavy Weapons Squads to deliver the killing blow. These teams of gun crews swiftly set up their mobile heavy weapons as their comrades advance, providing the firepower to bolster battle lines. With access to an arsenal of portable armaments, they can offer close fire support with adaptable loadouts of precise – or indiscriminate – firepower.

Across the three teams are a lascannon, heavy bolter, and an autocannon.

Shading the Heavy Bolter Cupola

There are Orks who have looted Imperial weaponry. Not only can they use Space Marine weapons they can also borrow the transport. I wrote about my Ork Looted Rhino and where I was in progressing it and then added the tracks.

When I was constructing the Ork Battlewagon I decided against using the included turret. So I decided to have a go at seeing how it and some smaller turrets looked on my Ork Looted Rhino. Having painted the turrets, I gave the Heavy Bolter Cupola a wash of Agrax Earthshade.

This wasn’t quite the effect I wanted, in order to match the existing Rhino body. Close, but not close enough.
