Various Ork models on my workbench.
Just what every mekboy wants; an even bigger `Dread! A smoke-belching, hydraulic monster able to tear apart enemy tanks and smash a side lesser war machines with contemptuous ease.
These Ork Mega Dreads were part of the Rynn’s World diorama at Warhammer World.
Inspired by the artwork from the original Warhammer 40000 Rogue Trader rulebook, this diorama shows the Crimson Fists making a heroic last stand against hordes of Orks.

I have one on my workbench, but it needs to be finished off… I bought mine at GamesDay 2009 and purchased it with two Killkannons as I didn’t think much of the Rippa-Claw, it looked flimsy in comparison to the model as a whole.
I was looking for something else when I found my Forge World Ork Mega Dread. I had got so far with it, I am surprised I hadn’t got around to finishing it off.
I bought mine at GamesDay 2009 and purchased it with two Killkannons as I didn’t think much of the Rippa-Claw, it looked flimsy in comparison to the model as a whole.
The construction process started off with the body, then the legs and the thighs. The legs were then attached to the body. The weapons were put together and then attached to the body. After constructing the model, it was undercoated. After basecoating the model, I gave the model a wash.  The next stage was giving the model more washes….
I now need to think about what to do next. I think the model is quite dark.
I will certainly add some metallic paint and rust to the engines on the back of the dread.

These modified Mega Dreads replace the big shootas with multiple tool-equipped servo-arms for battlefield ‘fixins’.

These two were part of a display at Warhammer World.
The Ork Mega-Dread is a very large walker vehicle. This monstrosity of a walker is to Deff Dreds and Killa Kans in the same way the Contemptor Dreadnought and its offshoots are to Space Marine Dreadnoughts. Thus these things are actually rare, since constructing one requires a Mekboy of both uncommon talent, and high levels of Orkishness, so a Guardsman won’t be seeing one on every battlefield.

This is from the Forge World stand and is a work in progress.

So after giving the model a wash, the next stage was giving the model more washes….
To continue the process I added some more washes of Devlan Mud and Badab Black, especially over the engine area.

So after basecoating the model, the next stage was giving the model a wash. For this I used GW’s Devlan Mud and Badab Black.

So after undercoating the model, the next stage was the basecoat.
I sprayed the model with a can of Humbrol dark brown spray paint. The model was purposely not sprayed to catch lower parts that would miss the spray to enable the black undercoat to act as shadow.

So after getting all the parts together the next stage was undercoating the model.
