MegaNobz! Part 1

Yes, I'm guilty of not posting in a while.  It's spring here in the Pacific NW and that means more outside time!  Between that and products in the pipeline my hobby postings have been slow.  My goal for now is at least once a week a hobby post. They may be short, as this one is, but as least it's something.  Let's get to it!

Tools to use- Rectangle Punch

I picked this up at my local Michael's craft store in the scrapbooking section, a rectangular hole punch:

The shell is still in progress.  When I put the shell on ork vehicles I measure for the space I'm trying to fill.  This does mean you rarely have a square angle anywhere.  If you end up with a funny gap just cover it with a bit or armor patch:

I used the inside fender wells on the front to hold up the fenders.  I just made a rough measurement and shoved them in there.

Trukk #4 Part 2

Right.  Let's get on with a post.  I took the chassis and added deck plates right to the frame.  I shaved down the high spots on the frame so that the plates stayed flat:

The driver is glued in place.  This trukk has an open driver's seat so I need to build around him.
