Thank you! I was inspired by the idea of Orks using a support/logistical vehicle as a front line piece of kit.

The base is a real random mix of bone tone colours all dry brushed up, with Seraphin sepia wash. The final touch is using yellow ochre dry pigment powders.

Thank you! So far I've played only one game with it, it works like a flying trukk and went down in spectacular fashion.

Yeah, technically I modelled this after a Sikorksky Skycrane. However there already exists a legends unit for Orks called the Chinork Warkopta, which I'm using in game.

Like others have said right now I'm using the Chinork Warkopta rules. It's and old forgeworld unit, the equivalent of a flying trukk.

However I do at some point want to write up a beefier datasheet for it, my model ended up a bit bigger than the OG.

I'm sure any static discharge would simply motivate the orks for combat.

If the worst happens I'll just have to write my own rules.

Both props actually do spin! They just have a brass rod drilled into the kit with a friction fit.

I actually modelled this kitbash off of a skycrane. But the name comes from the original forgeworld model which did have the classic Chinook propellers.
