Very cool Vanvlak. It really captures the quirky nature of those Ordinati. I like the little tank next to it too! 
Cheers!

Well now that we all can see it, I do like the Tank, with the SM2 Ork Hull and SM1 Turret from the Ork wheeled Battlewagon/APC ! Neat idea ! I may steal it !

Hi all,
this was a test tank I finished some week ago. This belongs to an Ad. Mech-attached armoured division, as yet nameless. The Fer-de-lance tank is equivalent to a Leman Russ Destroyer tank hunter, and is armed with a single Laser Destroyer. So now you know just where the Mekboyz got the material for so many of their Gunwagonz...
PS - the base is not part of the model; and I really need a better camera!

Minus the blades/jaws/rollers up front, with the bit for fixing these removed as well. I always thought these were too 'oomie for orks - the great big exhausts are of course heat sinks for the tanks' power packs to operate without overheating in desert conditions...
Incidentally, one of these without a turret looks a whole lot like an M113 - or a Rhino, if you prefer..

Yes, I always thought that the Rhino was a "Doppelganger" for a US M113 (I had 14 in the Mech Co. I commanded !) or UK FV432. Those vehicles were probably the inspiration for the Rhino. And if you put an E40K hatch with Stormbolter on the hull of that Bonebreaka, it would make a good "Rhino-like" APC too ! Another good idea for a vehicle conversion !

Hi all,
here's a picture of the coalface - my workbench. You could see the Ordinati, a Baneblade, a Rhino, a Manticore, and some non-Epic stuff if it wern't for the fact that my webcam lead is too short...doh!

Are you that bad, L4? Mine looks like a devastated Ad.Mech vehicle park which has crashed into a giants' cemetry (that's my WHFB Undead); with a WH40K Kroot Atomic Chicken strutting about the place....

Well, maybe not that bad ! I have a workbench and next to it my gaming tables covered with a GEO-Hex green mat with poster boards over that. Then all my new stuff in clear plastic boxes stacked up next to another work space on the tables. I try to stay organized and clean. Try ...

Hi all,
I've NOT stopped my third army - but ashamed of the clutter on my desk, I decided to remove a Gargant by completing it. You could just make out its Bad Moonz banner on my table pic - now it's gone - all it needed was a base after all.
Here it is - Destroarer:
