Warhammer 40k Grot Mega Tank Kit Bash

This months 40k Ork Community challenge was to rescue a model which has sat around, unloved, for far too long. So I took a half painted Chimera I'd had on the scrap head since the '90s and, with a heathy amount of bits from various kits and a good deal of plasticard and rivets, I knocked up a Grot Mega Tank for my Waaagh!
Introducing Grotty McGrot Face, this video shows off the model and the process of building this thoroughly enjoyable Warhammer 40,000 project.
There's also a daft intro I chucked in for shits and giggles 🤘😝

    The rear stability wheel during WW1 was for crossing trenches so the tanks weren't stopped at the 1st trench and could breakthrough the enemy lines with infantry support following them up.

    It's a good thing they don't have low bridges in the 40K universe! But perhaps that's because super grot tanks have driven through them all! It looks great! 👍
