I have spent a lot of time and effort working on my Ork Looted Rhino.
Having finished the base coat I gave the Looted Rhino a wash consisting of Chestnut Ink, Scorched Brown paint (which helps remove the gloss of the ink) and some water to thin the wash down.
It seems to have worked quite well.
Next stage will be a drybrush. See the full workbench feature on the Looted Rhino.
See our gallery of Looted Rhinos.
I have started work on an Ork Gunner for my Looted Rhino. I have used a resin Twin Big Shoota from Forge World. A plastic Ork body and an Imperial turret ring.
Here is how it is looking with the gunner. Not sure what I am going to do with the other hatch space.
I am quite pleased with how the model is looking, I still need to do a lot to the paint job, but conversion wise I like the result so far.
I decided looking at my Ork Looted Rhino that I really ought to finish the basecoat. Here is the Ork Rhino as it was. Just the side and front plate needed doing.
This actually took me less time then I thought it would. Here it is with the hatch off and the rear ramp down.
Next will be to give it a wash of dark ink with some paint to offset the gloss of the ink. Here it is “closed down” with the hatch on and ramp up. The hatch was scratchbuilt.
Another view.
More.
Some more work to do. See how I got to this stage on the main workbench feature.
I have done some more work on my Ork Looted Rhino.
This is the opposing view.
I still have to paint some more of the detail black and finish off the brown basecoat. I will then give it a wash and a drybrush before adding more detail.

Ork Looted Rhino from the Forgeworld displays.
I have some photographs of the Ork looted Rhino which s receiving its base coat.
This is the left side. You can see I have also done some black on the front panel. I have started the brown with the hatch to see if it worked. I liked it so the whole vehicle was painted. Work in progress.
I used Snakebite Leather (it was this colour or I was thinking of using Vomit Brown I used on my Ork Fighter Bommer).
Another shot
More soon…
It has been some time since I posted an update on my Ork Looted Rhino, so here is one. I have painted the tracks black.
I drybrushed the tracks with Tin Bitz and Boltgun Metal.
I did something similar with the wheels…
… and one of the Ork’s added armour panels.
At this point I then decided to do the exhausts in a similar manner.
The next stage will be painting the basecoat.
As you can see from this picture I have painted the black metal parts of the top and back hatches.
The back hatch also has the green for the internal side.
Having painted the black, I drybrushed with Tin Bitz and Boltgun Metal.
The hatch will be the same colour as the rest of the Rhino, which will be….
Well that is still to be decided…
I have painted more of the interior of my Looted Ork Rhino.
I have painted most of the extra bitz now.
I also want to put inside some Grot Riggers as well.
