Not going to lie, even though you seem to be a little embarrassed about your painting skill... As a beginner, you make this hobby feel accessible!!! This build was wild. Thank you for sharing your creativity. The end product (painting and all!!!) Looks really wonderful!!!
This is amazing, the fact you used almost all of other people’s extra sprees too is just amazing, all the potentially wasted plastic you saved! Great video!
Just keep liking, commenting and watching. If you see a video from another maker, check the comments to see if there's a good spot to simp for our boy here.
Thank you so much, keep watching, liking, commenting and sharing and one day it just might. I need to do collaborations with bigger RUclipsrs, if you watch anyone else drop my name in their comments lol =)
When I heard “made out of sprues” and saw the picture of the finished wagon I thought it was made out of leftover bits you had been sent. Then I realised you meant sprue itself. If what you made was a kit I’d buy it. I wish I had such a great imagination. To think of all the sprues I’ve cut up and binned since most things went to plastic.
I have an idea on how you can make thinner sheets of plastic, dunno if it'll work though. Use the acetone method to make the paste and then spread it onto a sheet of foil, place another on top then use a rolling pin to squash it all down to the thickness you want, then set it to the side for a few days to dry.
An old sandwich press and baking paper might be good for making large panels. Also if you're melting large quantities of plastic like that it's a good idea to do it outside as ABS plastic gives off toxic fumes when you heat it up.
That's a good idea! Brothers Make do that with their HDPE plastic. You could probably also get a similar effect with a toaster oven. Probably wouldn't use it for food after though as per the fumes you mentioned.
Thats the weird thing, when I melted them in the oven on a low heat they didnt give off a smell, I was kinda expecting them to just burn or catch fire but they didnt =)
As a plastic engineer, what you're doing with scrap is truly amazing, and you don't even imagine the amount of sprues that is wasted in the industry, JUST GIVE EM TO THAT MAN
That wagon is bloody gorgeous. Not 'looks good for something made out of sprue' just bloody gorgeous. The fact you've made it the most proppa of ways is just maddening 👍
I really like how the gaps and uneven slabs of slightly misaligned sprues of the truk fits the Orky "hammered and krumped together" esthetic. In my mind its much more authentic looking.
This has got to be the most extreme form of scratch building that I have ever seen. And it captures the 'Ork Aesthetic' perfectly. Excellent work! As I was watching, I began to wonder just how hard it would be for Games Workshop (and model companies like Tamiya, etc.,) to actually mold rivet and bolt heads directly onto their runners as a "bonus" for scratch builders to slice-off for extra detailing. If nothing else, it might inspire more builders to try similar projects. Thanks for posting this!
This is literally a gold mine of content. Keep picking it up and refining your work. This channel will get somewhere. Seriously that truck was so well made pat yourself on back!
Bloody hell, seriously good job mate! Literally the only part on that thing I would have guessed was made from sprues is the tracks. This whole thing is genius. By the way, just a thought- you might be able to get thinner (and possibly stronger/less snappy as the melted pieces would be squashed together?) melted sprue sheets by pressing them in something while they're still melted- maybe take it out of the oven, put another layer of foil and a tray on it, then load the second tray with weights or something, or even just stand on it? No idea if this would actually work, but it could be worth a try.
Thank you so much, with the oven melted sprues I did try a heavy rolling pin on them as well as heavy weights, unfortunately as soon as you bring it out of the oven it starts to harden almost immediately. I might try melting them at a higher temperature to see if they can get softer without burning =)
I was thinking melting in acetone, squash between baking sheets and then baking? Assuming it cracks because of gaps that hasn't fused in the oven. Great video! This is what 40k was all about when i was a kid
An idea for the melted sprues out of the oven: Make a frame of sprues for each panel you want, and push them into the melted sprue before you let it harden too much. That way when it cools it should adhere to the framework and not fracture randomly. Amazing work! Haven't played the game in years but still love all the mythology and model work that goes into everything.
Saw this late but absolutely impressed! I am glad I have kept all my sprues! I knew they could be used for something but never thought you could make something like this with them!!!
Thank you for once again enlightening me as to what is possible. I get inspiration on materials and methods every video, and we're saving some plastic from the waste stream along the way. How soft does the consistency of the acetone melted plastic get? Would leaving it in the jar even longer make a difference? It seems viscous and tricky to work with.
Thank you so much and for being a patron =), after about 24 hours the sprues seem to be at their gooiest and dont seem to get any softer over time. I will be experimenting more with melting sprues in the oven =)
Such a cool project, but the best part is that you don't come off as super talented (like many painting channels) so much as extremely dedicated and inventive. It makes the projects you do feel a lot more approachable to us plebs, and while I'm still assembling my very first Kill Team I'm already excited to have some fun with the sprues once I'm done.
As I said on part 1, well done mate! That's an interesting trick with the acetone. I once kitbashed a firetruck into an Ork battlewagon as a gift for a friend, but I bow to you sir!
Wanna do a whole battle wagon like this eventually, but at first I think I'm gonna use the wheel casting trick and the treads to help convert some other factions vehicles.
Cheers, I like the teeth too, I did try putting weights on the melted sheets as well as trying to use a large roller on them but it didnt work, as I melt them on a low temperature its still quite solid/hard and is soft enough to squish. I will be trying it again on a higher temperature but need to be careful it doesnt burn lol =)
@@MiniatureHobbyist havent tried with sprues🤪. With hdpe, i sandwich the plastic between wax paper, lay it on a cookie sheet. Stack a chunk of wood on it, and put 10 lb weight on that. Alternatively, once it is melted, transfer to a press or pressure clamp arrangement - its gotta be really quick transfer. I end up with sheets about 3 mm thick. They are fairly brittle, tho. I can cut them with scissors.
I am so upset that I, in 10 years of 40k orc play, NEVER thought of using sprues like this!!! You are definetly the Voice of Gork & Mork who came to us to help us increase the galactic WAAAGH!'s Power. You diserve a sub!
This looks awesome, lil tip to easily make things look like he paint has worn and rusted, start with a layer of silver and brown mixed, dry brush some silver and then use whatever colour you want for the paint but don't go up to the edges, slap some wash after and it looks like all the edges have chipped.
06:58 Orcs have pretty much won Warhammer already. While all the other races are struggling and suffering in the dystopian galactic war nightmare (except maybe Tyranids, they're having a blast too but as their a hive mind, they don't really count towards enjoying anything), the Orcs are just having a massive blast doing what they do, they love raiding, they love fighting, they love just existing in a massive galactic wasteland.
AH! I didn't expect the second half to be up so quick! Final product looks great; especially the treads, give it a Metal Slug tank look. When you're heating the sprues in the oven, maybe try putting a heavy weight (cast iron pan possibly) on to top to "encourage" the sprues to flatten more.
I didnt want people to have to wait =), the plastic sheets are very firm in the oven, I did try a large roller on them as well as heavy weights but the sheets arent soft at all when in the oven
You're right about painting, too many people are a bit snob when it comes to it, almost forgetting that it is supposed to be fun at first ^^ for your sprue sheets, when they harden too much, maybe you could try to reheat them with a heat gun or a hair dryer?
Gork (or Mork), cant wait to see this in a waaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!!!!!! But Mork (or Gork), isnt happy about the levels of dakka....... The dakka levels MUST be improved next time!
When you're working with the sheets of ABS, try using a heat gun to reheat the area you're cutting, it should help. You could also try cutting it with a band saw, ABS should be able to be cut without major melting issues unless GW has changed the formula they use significantly from the industry standards.
For the big flat panel: Rather than baking, why not get an acetone/sprue blob, and then rolling pin it flat and let it cure like that? After the first day or so, when it starts to harden, you can probably cut it whatever shape you want pretty cleanly and then let it cure completely.
I hate how cool this is. I want one! And seeing how 'simple' it all is, I could build one.. but that requires effort. For orky-bits this style just works so well. And the care and craft with which it's built is spot-on. I love it! and I hate it, because it's just too damn wonderful to be built from 'trash' :P So cool...
To get the plate of sprues thinner you put a few bricks on top when “baking” The replacement panels are OLDER, and off-colour, the BOLTS are new. Sterling work, I give it 78/100 Because no pressure mode… if you slowed down and did the details with care you could get maybe 95/100… the question is would you want to!? Great stuff, keep on going!
Just a thought but if you do something like this again for a different faction, you can buy cheap car/auto-primer from pound shops that would help fill in some of the gaps. My brother uses it whenever he makes anything out of PLA from his 3d printer and it can really build up uneven surfaces. Obviously though, for the ork build it is perfect as is. Great job!
Just another modeler from military & HO builds to find this channel interesting & helpful with crossing over.. might need a larger container so it melts out thinner is my two cents..
This is awesome! I love that it's made from sprues. The one thing I would suggest, is you could have made some sprue goo and used it as gap putty on some of the larger pannel sections as a way of smoothing with sprues.
I had thought about that but as this project had already taken nearly 2 weeks to complete I thought I would leave it with the imperfections which make it look more orkish =)
Well I got few giant sheets of plasticard so I got one good material, but I like both of these parts, the melting sprues bit gives me idea to make an army of treants (eldar walker thingies). Liking the general idea of the truck too, I recently finished my own trukk and bucket stomp, so I love seeing work like that.
I love what you did here man! It reminds me of the old armorcast models with the big rivets and bright reds. You think you’ll try making a gargant out of sprues? 👀👀
Hi there! Ive never played a table top game in my life and know less than nothing about the scene, but the algorithim just shuffled this my way and its so cool! I feel all kinds of inspired for a hobby I dont even have! 😅
Absolutely brilliant. Could you roll the plastic sheets when they come out of oven whilst they are still malleable? Could you even use a textured roller ?

All of a sudden my pile of leftover sprues just became an unassembled ork army.
Haha yup, sprues are awesome =)

IN A CAVE!
This is amazing, the fact you used almost all of other people’s extra sprees too is just amazing, all the potentially wasted plastic you saved!
Great video!
Thank you so much, it is great to reuse something that would normaly be thrown away =)
Its insane how detailed this is for being just sprues. You certainly have a gift and a lot of patience. Great result!
Welcome to the Battlewagon club!
I miss the rustbucket but the final job still looks good!
Cheers, these are cool vehicles, I kinda loved the red undercoat too much to go full on rust, plus red makes it go faster =)
Plus hotrod flames and red ;)

It was a labour of love but also a great distraction from the world events =)

I would try this for my tau but it wouldn’t fit in as well as if I had orks 🥺

Very Orkish! This was a great series of tutorials of using sprues to make models. Thanks for sharing this.
You have truly made me want to be an Ork player, just from this wonderful journey.
legit one of the coolest things i've seen since starting the hobby
Yeah this definitely looks like orks cobbled it together from a bunch of bits and pieces of metal laying around. Excellent work I'm very impressed!
Thank you very much!
It looks like a game model with all the polygons

This is like the Ork Art Attack. Amazing stuff!
Genuinely surprised your hands weren't green
Haha yup I made an Ork art attack lol =)
the rough and ready look works perfectly for the orks
Really making me start to seriously consider orks for when I eventually start a xenos army...
You should they are the best =)
Really unique thing you did here. Hopefully it’ll boost you up even more. Have to say this is the most original thing I’ve seen done with sprues
Superb. This is the original 40K sprue five tissue fantasy!
Wanted to say thanks for the inspiration, made myself something for my ork army using around 90% sprues. Came out great thanks to your videos 👍🏻

Love your stuff. I'd bet you could make a press to form those panels and thins sheets easier. Just something like your mould box with weight on top.
This is actually insane. This is absolutely phenomenal and I can't believe this doesn't have more views!
This is really great, and I thought I was creative, when I built Gorkamorka Orks from Hero Quest Orks. This is another Level.
" I want mine to be red as it makes it go faster" Char Aznable would be proud
Im still impressed by how dope it looks!

Yup and thats why I love Orks, throw it together, slap some paint on and ya done =)
I love orcs and orks too. This was an amazing job. I love all your creative videos in regards to fantasy creations.
Looks great. Need to make a few ork vehicles for GorkaMorka!
This is so awesome ! Unbelievable that it’s all made from Sprues
Thank you so much =)
I think we should call this battle wagon the behemoth
That sounds good =)
One hell of a build.
Well done indeed!
That’s painstakingly awesome. Warlord Titan next. Whaaaaaaaaaaaat!!!!

Orcs have pretty much won Warhammer already. While all the other races are struggling and suffering in the dystopian galactic war nightmare (except maybe Tyranids, they're having a blast too but as their a hive mind, they don't really count towards enjoying anything), the Orcs are just having a massive blast doing what they do, they love raiding, they love fighting, they love just existing in a massive galactic wasteland.
AH! I didn't expect the second half to be up so quick!
Final product looks great; especially the treads, give it a Metal Slug tank look.
When you're heating the sprues in the oven, maybe try putting a heavy weight (cast iron pan possibly) on to top to "encourage" the sprues to flatten more.
I didnt want people to have to wait =), the plastic sheets are very firm in the oven, I did try a large roller on them as well as heavy weights but the sheets arent soft at all when in the oven
@@MiniatureHobbyist Well, it was a thought. It's crazy they stay tough like that.
Still, cheers!
You're right about painting, too many people are a bit snob when it comes to it, almost forgetting that it is supposed to be fun at first ^^
for your sprue sheets, when they harden too much, maybe you could try to reheat them with a heat gun or a hair dryer?
Yup the painting needs to be as much fun as the build so I dont worry now if its not perfect, the heat gun might work, I need to try that =)
You deserve so much more recognition within the Warhammer community
Thank you, please share wherever you can =)

To get the plate of sprues thinner you put a few bricks on top when “baking”
The replacement panels are OLDER, and off-colour, the BOLTS are new.

The concept of building stuff with scrap ist orcish in itself. 👍
Hey @minitaurehobbyist what kind of glue & applicator do you use? I don't recognize that brand o.o
Hi there!
Ive never played a table top game in my life and know less than nothing about the scene, but the algorithim just shuffled this my way and its so cool!
I feel all kinds of inspired for a hobby I dont even have! 😅
You could vapour smooth it like with 3d printing easy technique to try i loved the goop idea
when you melt down the sprew into a sheet, use a hobby knife and score your design into it and then cut or snap it like if you were cutting glass.
I can't believe I missed Part 1! This thing looks freaking AMAZING!!! You deserve some kind of award for this lol
This is the inspiration I needed to make my Freeboota Battlewagon-ships! Let’s make it Orky!!!
A thicc layer of structure Paint would have eben awesome! Quiet some top many holes in there
I might try that next time, all the holes make it look more orkish =)
That is superb m8, the really good thing is it looks like its made of mix of wood and metal, awesome.
Absolutely brilliant. Could you roll the plastic sheets when they come out of oven whilst they are still malleable? Could you even use a textured roller ?
The plastic sheets are very firm in the oven, I did try a large roller on them as well as heavy weights but the sheets arent soft at all when in the oven
