Last weekend, my game club/store hosted a photoshoot, aimed at teaching amateurs how to photograph small miniatures. By "amateurs" I mean people who spend as much time in photography as we do in wh40k!
A few of us players lent our models to, to serve as targets. And this allowed me to finally get good shots of my heavy tank! The ones I had, taken with an old camera, were so bad I was ashamed of them
So, here's my Command Vanquisher. Made the model severall years ago, my first big conversion. The turret is from an M60A2 1:35, the Leman Russ hull was lenghtned, and the sponsons are from a Forgeworld Baneblade; a fellow IGer in another forum received 2 extras, when he bought one, and I got them cheap

You got an M60A2 turret! Nicely done.
Other pictures there look good too.

I really like the looks of the Soviets WW2 equivalent of the US Willy's Jeep, the GAZ -67B.
So I picked up a 1/48 scale Tamiya kit to customize to fit into my IG army.
Haven't figured out the rules for them yet, but I have the idea they would be utilized as expendable recon units to make contact with the enemy on long range patrols. If they don't return from patrol, then the IG officers now know where the enemy is! I think they would make a alternative to horse mounted IG cavalry.

I love the Gaz! Since it's such a small vehicle, perhaps just use it as heavy weapons team that can move and fire? Or something like an attack bike?

@Brushfire = Really nice jeep - how about using them as sentinels?

Great work on the camo and stormhammer, Tinners!

I don't see any problem.

Your Malcodor is suffering from battlecannon droop?
It wasnt glued in that pic, just propped together. The whole top section has been cut off now anyway, so that wont be an issue.

That is not dead which can eternal lie

I am the guy who thought the LoTR movies were crap and liked Judge Dredd.
Latest on my leviathan.
Its dusted and sooted up.
Started on the crew aswell.
Sad to say, no flag, yet.
/ SDKFZ
SDKFZ - looking very good, might be it could use some faint soot around the housing of that demolisher cannon, clean atm, but with heavy soot around the barrel doesn't look quite right.
I've come across this kit and I'm trying to figure out what it could be used for (conceptually, not necessarily in game) has a very nice post-apoc feel to it. Maybe not 40k though? I could see some Ash Wastes nomads rolling round in it.

My Imperial Guard thread. Some nice Tanks
Imperial Guard on hold while I build my BA army, sorry for the lack of updates.

***My Wanted List***
@SDKFZ; Just a small point, but there really should be some soot on the main turret gunbarrel beside the autocannon - both the muzzle brake and the actual muzzle blast would deposit quite a bit of soot on there when it was fired.
Surpize, I think that'd work best as an elysian vehicle in game universe wise.
Anyway, Malcaruss update
And not to waste anybits..
