I got's me Stompy I did.

Say it with a bad cockney accent.

I finally picked up the beast. I'm only a few months behind the eightball.

It's not a bad kit. I would say I've spent about 3 hours on it and I'm 90% finished. The torso is a bear to assemble. There's no support until you have the whole thing assembled so the panels have a tendency to move. Otherwise the kit goes together fairly well.

The instructions are what one would expect from Games Workshop (i.e. next to useless). There are definitely a slew of kitbash options with the trukk and the battlewagon. It's nice that GW is offering a cohesive, yet still cobbled together, look for the orks.

I'm going vanilla on this one though. This was more in the way of getting a feel for the kit. I'm going to wait to build another until the upgrade sprues are available in August. I'm really curious as to whether they are making a left CCW available, like the picture from WD350. The one with the death roller attached.

I'm hoping to start painting it this weekend. If I do I'll post WIP pictures on Segmentum.

That is all.
