just showing a converted Leman Russ

**Garuss Acine**

i have to say the the main reason i undertook this project was i didn't have the cash to buy the Forge world model and i couldn't find the barrels that Games Workshop made so i set to work at making one and saved a bunlde, i think i spent a total of roughly 28-30 US dollars for the tank and the two imperial guard autocannons, and i for the hull mounted heavy bolter i used my extra servitor one and i have to say in my mind it looks better.
now normally i would have pictures up but my digital camera is out of state at the moment i should have it back by next monday at the latest so keep checking for them, i haven't painted it yet and i will leave it unpainted to i take the first pictures.

**Clthomps**

why make this post now if you know you wont have pictures for it?

**alarmingrick**

it's called building suspense!!!

**Garuss Acine**

well you see, long story short i didn't know i didn't have the cam till after the first post, so that's why i post afterward stating as such. ><

**NO_SUCH_LUCK**

I'm visualizing it now....

....and it's awesome!

**Phryxis**

Like the snow camo, really blends in.

**Paul Atreides**

It sure blends in good, absolutely. Should someone post a picture of a searchlight, so we can find it?

**Chrispy**

If you can't get a cam, post it using ASCII art.

That would be a scratchbuilt picture of a scratchbuilt tank, which would be awesome (x2).

Let's have some real pics soon!

**Garuss Acine**

hey everybody, here we go just got the cam up and running so enjoy!

so of them are crappy as hell...but it not the best cam either so all enjoy

**Joyous_Oblivion**

Looks good! I like the long barrels compared to the GW model.

The front heavy bolter looks odd...does it have an ammo feed? The ammo for it would be housed internally normally.

Good job though!

**Garuss Acine**

yeah it has the ammo belt, the leman russ only comes with two heavy bolters and a las cannon for the mounts so i used my extra servitor hvy bolter and i like it lol

**jamunition**

its ah good

**KingCracker**

yuppers that looks good man. nice jorb

**Garuss Acine**

here is an update to the home made tank, enjoy, also feel free to look up the rest of the army

**grizgrin**

Would have clipped the ammo feed myself, but that's taste for ya; everyone's is different. I really DO like the way you did the autocannons, though. Muy bueno.

**pcon426**

except for the hb on the front it is better than the fw one

**Garuss Acine**

thank you, i'll go over with brushes either later today or tomorrow and then after it drys i'll put on the main color and maybe some detail color, i'll keep you guys updated
