The Warforge Miniature Modelling and Conversion

The Devil’s in the Details

This is more like it!

 

I think it may be too big, but I really don't want to give up on it. I'm also not happy with the way that back section piece came out, so I'll probably work on it a little more. Added in steps on the right side of the vehicle so it'd look like there's some way for the driver to get in and out. That's what the things on the front of the right side treadbox are.

Getting Started

Nothing fancy, but I started working on the front end of the battlewagon. I should have a signifigant amount of the frame done over the weekend.

 

The driver is a bit weedy, granted. I may have to put a normal boy torso in there. However, I'm also thinking about if it's really necessary, since I plan on putting a dense steel mesh over the holes in the cab so you won't see much or have much light going in there. It's going to be a pain to paint him once I've got him assembled in there, but for the sake of the vehicle I need to install the stuff around him, too.

Initial Plans

I will be scratch-builting a sexy battlewagon for my Kult of Speed, but first I need to come up with a good design. I began this process by putting the world's best scientific minds to work in my high-security 'concentration camps' where they were beaten day and night and fed raw hobo meat until the blueprints were done.

I definitely want to outfit it with rokkit launchas (possibly removable), a Zzap gun, armor plating, turbo boostas, and possibly some kind of ramming device that has not yet been added.

The placement of the Zzap gun is due to the fact that I'm sketchy about the rules of how vehicle-mounted weapons obtain line of sight... It's in a crappy place, as I initially pictured it mounted out of the front of the vehicle, but I put it there so that it could freely rotate and target things on the battlefield.

I may lengthen the back end to fit more troops on yet. I don't have anything I'm kitbashing for it, so most of it will be plasticard and stuff out of my bitz box.
