I've been out of town for a bit so have a lot of catching up to do. Today I finished off the current Ork Trukk (The pic is actually just prior to the last round of touch ups). I'm going to have to retrofit names to these things just for ease of use when playing! This time I added a magnetic mounting to the Big Shoota/wrecking ball so I can run without it but, really, so that its easier to store the vehicle. Works great and looks typically Orky. I didn't make any attempt to hide the magnets other than just slapping some Tin Bitz (Citadel) over them so they look like big ole washers. I've got a pile of legacy trukks that look way out of scale with the new ones. The painted ones I'll keep and use as buggies while the unpainted ones will get cannibalized and built into models with a similar footprint to the new kits. Oddly enough the beds of the different generation of trukk are essentially the same so it should be fairly simple to beef up the older versions. The Juggers are getting a deep writing effect I'm painting in symbols in a non contrasting color scheme that I'll be able to bury in layers of glaze and wash. I'm going for the look of patterns and images appearing below the surface. I'll finish the Juggers with gloss coat that will intensify the effect.
