    Dont worry they will be getting done black when I'm doing the finishing touches.

    You're a loon chief, a complete loon, but an inspiring loon so you get away with it

    Seeing your stuff actually terrifies me a wee bit, I'm sitting here looking at a set of Rhino templates realising I don't even know how to correctly resize them for truescale Marines while preserving the relative size of the bits, let alone achieving the level of detail you managed on that Ragnarok. Can I ask how you manage to get such accurate circles? I tried picking up one of those hobby compass-cutters, but it really struggled on anything with less than a two-inch diameter.

    I'm guessing the business end of the Autocannon is from one of the Krieg models (either the heavy weapons teams, or maybe the exterminator)?

    I dont envy you on those bombards, Matie ! Salamander looking great. How will you kit it out ? Your usual camonets aside. Like the pintle stubber.

    I only have 2 words for your projects, Tinners: A...stounding!

    Just to ask how you make your camo nets (I've heard of making these out of gauze and strips of paper)?

    Also, I'm always stunned by how accurately you make the crenellated parts at the bottom of the tracks...do you make some kind of a template to get them looking so good?

    I could do with an Autocannon or eight if that was an open offer Though I assume you are talking about slightly smaller arms

    @ biggreengribbly: Nope, they are vehicle weapons. I didnt think theyd be that popular.
    Anyhow, I know Tinners uses them for his builds, so he has first pick rights.

    I'm tempted by the idea of Wieberlwind stylings for a Hydra conversion. Unfortunately I have no idea where else to go for the tapering muzzles, outside of flying base stems, which are just a few shades of too bloody thick.

    Depends what size you need, you can get some decent 1/35th. I will have a look later and find the ones that will suit an autocannon

    I had thought of this ages ago, and am using the same company's items as these pictures provide evidence of.

    What severely annoys me is the fact that the warping on Forge World stuff happens so often, with such regularity on things like Heavy stubbers and auto cannons..that I began to look for alternatives..
