Very nicely painted, and some very cool conversions in there, particularly the guy with the chainsaw.

Really like what you've done with those rusting hulks.

Are they diecast coaches that you've stripped down and repainted?

They're plastic and heavily stripped indeed, had to put in new floors out of cardboard, and just bin the rest (except the wheels, they might come in handy later).

Edit: a friend of mine bullied me into posting these too:

First some more wrecks:

And now my cars, I'm still working on the crew, which will be added later. The guns are attached with magnets for easy removal and swapping around.

Jag Panzer, my leader's car:

Good call, I don't know what my next car will be, we are playing a Gorkamorka campaign with these vehicles at the moment (just using human models instead of orks, cars at 10 teef each rather than 20, and able to cross hills), so when I have enough oney I'll get a new one. But first I want to take care of the crew :)

The idea was Savages (gorkers) vs. scavengers (morkers), my two opponents play scavengers :)

Thanks! They were pretty easy to build and paint though. I don't think I can resist building another one so I'll try to make some WIP shots when I do. For now, here's an unpainted piccie of Jag Panzer:

(I later replaced the front wheels with some rougher looking ones)

For the rust, read the article:

http://combatzonechronicles.net/cozoxb/punks.htm

Or in short: black undercoat, drybrush VGC Charred Brown, and then stippling on Coat d'Arms (old citadel) Blazing Orange and Vomit Brown, brush on at will and if it ever gets too bright just dull it down by brushing on some black. For the non-rusty cars I used a black undercoat followed by a drybrush of VMC German Grey and P3 Ironhull Grey. Then I painted the metal bits in Citadel Chainmail, followed by a coat of Tamiya Smoke (only on Jag Panzer), some blazing orange/vomit brown for rust, and then VGC Earth for the dirt, and some black for dulling the metal/rust down where appropriate. Hope this helps :)

A movie came out recently set in post ultra plauge Scotland. (basicly the entire country had devolved into Glasgow.)

Was it Doomsday, or a Taggart special?

... Aaand, the movie's name iiiis... DOOMSDAY! Which was a rather cool flick on it's own, but suffered from it's ending in my oppinion.

Oh and those cars are mighty, mighty fine looking! Please do a show and tell when you're going to build new ones! :D

They're available for free on the GW website. Look under specialist games and out-of-print rules.

After a few games we still considered the game very orky (something that is very difficult to get rid of when playing Gorkamorka), we're thinking of intergrating it a bit more with Necromunda, having human stats and possibly some more powerful weapons to make the game a little bit more shooty.
