@ Tinners: The SPG will have same price as Hedgehog. I still not finished the manual. And I love your gothic radar, it`s so 40K.

@ Hammerbolt: As SDKFZ and Tinners said, you can see it (soon) in my website

Very very nice! Would it be possible to get a photo of one on top of a Leman Russ? Pretty please?

Drat... it's a lot bigger than I thought...

@SovietRed: now those are beautiful.

Trying to rebuild/revamp an old hellhound. Have had to fix alot on this one.
The result still looks convincing, me thinks.


Also did my second tauros with cadian crew. (my other tauroses have a small sidarm on the dashboard......this one has a shotgun )

@ SDKFZ I love the Cadian Tauros. I was thinking of doing the same exact thing. Nothing like assault 2 Grenade launchers.

[AndrewGPaul]

Have you considered up-armouring that Tauros? IIRC IA8 describes the Elysian model as stripped down for air mobility. The "standard" model would presumably have a properly enclosed driver's compartment and perhaps front and rear bumpers. For examples, compare the Jeeps and Chevy trucks used by the SAS and LRDG in WW2 to the stock models used elsewhere.

Ragnarok BTT-1T, also known as an Atlas.

Tinners, biological impossibilities aside, I'm willing to have your children, even if it's only to get access to those scratchbuilding genes.

LOL... somehow there is money making scheme in that scenario.

[Tinners]

I'm suddenly very scared.

[Pendragon]

Don't worry, I'd settle for a scratchbuilt tank or twelve.

[hammerbolt]

I'm stealing every single one of these awesome ideas!!!!

[SDKFZ]

@ AndrewGPaul: Cool idea, ive not yet read IA8 so i didnt know about them being stripped down. .......................i still have some to build............hmmmmm.

@ razormasticator: Go ahead ! Please make some of your own, would be great to see someone else do them

@ Tinners: ARVs looking great ! Love those heavy A-beams.
And, Mate, id watch my back if i was you

I'm going to Sd...

This is what they are based on

[SDKFZ]

Thanks for that inspirational picture, Mate. Love the concrete ballast piece at the back.
Is it another scratchbuilt project or a resin kit ?

is that a T-72 hull? If so (scales apart) it's a log bigger than your model... think I'll use a Chimera, or the version of the Manticore (to use the open rear hull)

I believe his is a scratchbuilt one

It is based on the ISU-152, which was based of the IS/JS-1 hull. Yets its a lot longer and bigger than mine, but thats because I built these to be a 40kified version rather than a straight copy of the ISU-152. My hulls are longer than a Chimera by about 1cm, but you should be able to use it.
