[jasevx]

he he, think were on the same path with the basilisk, I'll just keep an eye on yours for tips, great work!

[sheep]

Wow, resurection much.

These models have been staring me in the face for a while and your comments will give me the kick in the pants to get started again.

@duggal: I didn't actually think about it. I guess there'll be alot of single handed poses.

Cheers

Some very nice stuff there sheep....we should date

[animal64]

Hey just wanted to say that your stuff looks awesome; I really like the Autogun conversion, especially a fan of the glove w/ the finger cut out for the trigger; small detail but i think it looks really cool keep it up bro, putting all my stuff to shame ha

SHEEP! i know your having fun doing the tale of 40k gamers but please get this army finished, it would be a sin for such an awesome looking army to just disappear into the back pages of the project logs forum!

Back from beyond the grave, does it count as threadomancy if its your own?

Any way onto the real reason for this post. I FINISHED SOMETHING!! Yay!!
This basilisk has been starring me down for months, but i finally picked up the brush and finished the bastard.





This is the rear view, i thought the fire controls for the stock model looked a little rudimentary, so i used a spare computer panel from a LR the pimp it out a little. There is also a periscope that provides fire control data, its the bit that looks like a smoke stack.



Every tanks got to have a name right? Heres this bad boys.

Aye, good to have you back Sheep, and great that you come bearing gifts. The bassi looks great, dig the controls and periscope. Is the end muzzle bit painted camo too? Very nice touch if so

Hahaha, gotta love those puffs of purple smoke, or purple urple, purple doesnt usually leave purple smoke but..... Anyways... Great basilisk, lovin it.

[Arhalien]

Lovely work Sheep .

Any chance you could tell us how the autoguns were done?

[DigitsDavid]

Nice conversion on the basilisk. I'm about to build one myself and may pinch the muzzle idea. Reminds me of a Marder.

HAHA sucess, thats the look i was going for.

Lovely work Sheep .

Sure mate.
1. Cut straight through the stock of the lasgun so its level withe the forward sight
2. Remove the lasgun magazine, replace with a piece of plasti card, i used a strip, 1.5mm thick, by 2mm, clips vary in size so any length will do within reason
3. Take a piece of plastic rod cut a piece 3mm long, glue to the front of the gun
4. Once its dry drill out the barrel.



Thats it.
