I know what colors I want to go for and I plan on a wood plank fence around the top deck.

The wheels would look better if they were actually the old wooden wheels you'd find on prairie wagons.

As long as the vehicule looks agressive it's gonna fit with the game. I just had an idea, don't know if it's good or not, but anyway... if you could see the engine, you know big and messed up ork style. It could be nice...

Wagon wheel pasta!

99 cents a bag. eat what you don't use.

That and a little paint should do it.

If you play 40K I'm not sure wood wheels would fit with the setting of 40K. Maybe if you put some spike on it it would look more orkish.

I don't know if you ever went on the warhammer site, they have a catalog there, maybe you could get some idea there

web page and a orc Trukk

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Spikes are a great Idea. thanks. i do have a tone of them. I actualy own the 2004 bits book that just came out.

Ok, here are some of the updates I have done so far. I fixed the wheel issues and have added some more detail stuff.

I think trash it up a bit, have bits of stuff hanging off it etc. To be honest though, I think most of the detail will come with the paint by putting Ork signs etc on it. Some kinda ram or scoop on the front would be pretty cool though, and more weapons.
