A conversion tutorial where I take an Ork Trukk and Mek Gun and make 4 gunz out of it. I also used a Kannon and Zapp gun from the Battle Wagon kit. Images can be found on my blog here: itslikewatching...
When I first got into 40k I did orks just because of the conversion options which is why I think a lot of people are attracted to them. But the majority I've seen are more like a tabletop horror show than conversions. These however came out really good. They not only look Orky but they look complete.
Love it! For those like me who think the big gunz are better not having all the same chassis Will definitely use this as inspiration if I decide to collect orks.
it almost looks like GW had that in mind from the beginning ... I mean, it's so obvious that the Trukk should be used to make additional chassis for Mek Gunz! thanks a lot for the detailed kitbashing!
Some exacto knives will work as a handle for your hacksaw blade. Mine fits a large red plastic handle that holds round drill bits or Exacto knife blades.
I have shared this video more times than I can count and interesting enough I haven't finished watching it. I will today because I'm making some right now
Orks make their vehicles out of garbage. So I will make mine out of garbage, too. All set to begin painting my first trukk that cost me a grand total of $6. That includes a driver I bought on Ebay.
Honestly. I was easily 100% turned off by the price of these guns. So much in fact that I raged about it on Dakka Dakka for like a week. Now that I have seen this, I may change my mind with some number crunching haha.
ephraimfan Tamiya extra thin plastic cement. It’s amazing. Comes in a square glass bottle with a green lid. Should be at most hobby stores that stock tamiya paint
Almost 6 years later. I still love this.
Same, love the clever use of the chassis and wheel parts!
As a new ork player, I really appreciate this vid.

That's my problem too,alot of the time the conversions or kitbashes don't even look orky

feralstryke it’s nearly been 6 years, have you decided to collect Orks yet?

Thanks for sharing!
Great work! I would love to see it painted.
nice work, inspiring, would be great to see some warbuggies/trakks done by you with the new kits
WHat a gem! i found! Waaaggh!!
Great conversion work.
Piece of good work!
Good old fashion Orky Know Wats !!!
Great work, love it. It very inspired me and will try it too. Thank you so much for charing. Go ahead and make more cool stuff like that.
Love how they look but it's a bit miss leading saying its only the trukk and 1 mek gun box if two of the guns come from a battle wagon kit :(
Watch to the end, the examples I show are using the mek gun only. the Battle wagon bitz are just for further options
Mandatory viewing for ork players
They’re beautiful seriously
Fantastic idea.
Nice video! Love kitbashing. :)
Awesome. Very Orky
fantastic vid mate, thanks!
Good job!
Great vid!
Excellent video, really helpful! Could we get an army showcase once you've finished painting your new models? :)
2:18 "There's different size wheels. I'm gonna have to match up the sizes." I'm sorry - I thought this was an ORK conversion . . . .
lol... that's optional
lovely conversion man :)
This is awesome!

spot on
Can you still build a trukk out of this or do I need a seperate trukk?
Does this still work with current kits
I am doing this.
sweet
Nice

says he was going to use only truck bits, goes and use battlewagon bits
If you watch the video you'll see that I use the mek gun bitz for this tutorial... the battle wagon bits are just another option
Awesome video! Quick question, what super glue are you using in this video with that amazing brush on tactic?

but....Orks can't shoot worth a damn though...wouldn't you be better off loading some boyz in the truk and blitzing the other guy?
Grotz do the shooting sir 4+ bs
Geez, complaining alot about a cheep good convertion. They all turned out great and orky
very orky
Im not being funny but who has spare wheels lol
