Hiding Magnets
I got a few responses about how/where I hid the magnets for the Kill Kannon. Here’s were the mags are hidden… One of the parts containing the magnets is glued to the deck with a very (paper) thin sheet of…
Magnetizing Kill Kannon Platform
Winter’s not done with us yet up here in Minnesota so everything I had planned outside got cancelled, which means more time for the Wagon! My wife had her own projects she wanted to finish up that didn’t include me…
Kill Kannon Work
Started work on the Kill Kannon platform last night. I’m looking for sturdy but transparent so you can see the plating and girding needed to stabilize a gun of this size. The idea is ramshackle beefy. I’m realizing lately that…
Ork Shokk Attack and Trukk Done
Finished them a while ago – finally have photos! You can vote on them here… http://www.coolminiornot.com/188523 I’m also tracking the progress of my scratchbuilt battlewagon here….

Rivets!!!
RIVETS! Ok, I put down some rivets, big and small. I’m liking the way it “fills out” the character here. I started working on the other side armor, creating a pretty looking ork glyph for the front plate (IMO). Now…
Deff Rolla work and Kill Kannon
The nice thing about working on something so large is if I get bored/frustrated/uninspired with one thing, I can always pick another part to work on until inspiration strikes again! The mechanicals for the deff roller is done, it rolls…
Deff Rolla Construction
Made some progress over the weekend on the deff roller and had a little mini-vacation with the missus! Overall, a good weekend. The first pic today is a composite showing some in process while making the rollers themselves. The first…
Battle Damage
I’m pretty happy with how this thing’s turning out. Took a while to start “realizing” it, but I think I’ve finally got it. I unleashed the Dremel last night and went to town. It might seem like it’s not battle…
