The Beast is a heavily converted tank which destroys everything in its path. It has 2 quadruple lascannons and 1 single lascannon, plus many more destructive weapons. This tank took about 80 hours to make and paint. To convert it i used a razorback, an ork Wartrakk and lots of spare bits for orky goodness. The top back door on the razorback was put on the front as an extension instead, so that i could fit the ork tankbuster on a bike into the back of the tank. I also raised it to make a platform ontop which could hold more weapons. My favourite part in the tank would have to be the mouth on the plough. The plough is exposed to flip the 'ummies' up then the blades above it rip them apart and the heads of the victims get caught in the mouth of the ork monster. Yum! I played a game with it in an 'all tank battle' and in one turn the tank itself took out 3 tau hammerheads and a skullhammer while my tankbuster with tankhammer on a bike took out a land raider witch then exploded and took out a tau sky ray missile defence gunship. That was the funniest/happiest day ever!

EPIC conversion. I'd say that would border on scratch build, cause you appear to have nailed a couple of tanks together there to make this mothership of a machine...
shame it's a ork build... that said I guess the orks really are the only ones who would do that... Or chaos I suppose...
Excellent looking conversion. Very orky and stacked up indeed. Reminds me some what of a chaos tank conversion i once saw, called 'Maximus Infectious'. It's almost the same looking, but smothered with an infected nurgle type look.
The Beast is classified as a battlewagon but... when i play in GW store and i am playing for fun i can use all the weapons. If i used it in a tournament i would use it as a battlewagon.
Thanks again for comments keep them coming!
We'z Orks ur da best! Waaagh!!!

The biker has a tankhamma and it rides in the back of the truck until it's close enough to another tank and storms out of the back of The Beast and puts holes in other tanks etc.
