Made from the newer Tau Stealth Suits, plastic WH40K orks, plastic Warhammer goblins and bits. Lots and lots of bits. Now I have to make a painboss so they have a reason to stop bullets. Although, Mekboss Stingy could be a painboss - there is no apparent difference in profile, just the ability to repair machinery/rebuild orks.

WH40K - Fighta Bomma project
I plan to convert a 1/48 model of a Grumman Skyrocket into an Ork Fighta Bomma. I wanted an unusual looking plane, not too expensive ($29.95 at the local Toyworld). I liked the twin engines (to be replaced with jets) and the twin tail. The plan is to scrap some old armour kits and raid the bits box to add armour plating, guns, bombs, teeth etc to the original model. It will have to have a heavily converted ork pilot - with flying helmet, goggles and fluttering scarf of course. I think one of the new Kommandos gasmask heads would be appropriate. Also, this is an opportunity to use a failed Wartrukk rebuild as the 'launch trolley'.
Mekboy concept sketch of partially finished Fighta Bomba. (Warboss Grabba only ever expects it to be partially finished. Since his 'axe-y-dent' Mekboss Stingy has the attention span of a rabid squig.)
