I've had this finished for a while, but I own a shoddy camera and haven't had the ability to take any justifying photographs to share. Fortunately, the wonderful photographers at this year's Games Day do.

The initial pics of the model during its building phase are attached.

The painted pics, provided by www.sodemons.com:

Hope you like ^____^

My Loyalist P&M Log, Irkutsk 24th

"And what is wrong with their life? What on earth is less reprehensible than the life of the Levovs?"
- American Pastoral, Philip Roth

Oh, Death was never enemy of ours!
We laughed at him, we leagued with him, old chum.
No soldier's paid to kick against His powers.
We laughed - knowing that better men would come,
And greater wars: when each proud fighter brags
He wars on Death, for lives; not men, for flags.

Yes, I painted the base too. Rather enjoyed that part

The base is a standard Dreadnought-sized base, with the standard, um, Falcon-sized flying stand glued on top of it, with green stuff sculpted around the rim to make it join more smoothly.

Excellent conversion, with a solid paintjob (I dig the searchlight engines especially). Even the base is done to a high standard (a tutorial on your celestial painting would make a great addition to the P&M Tut. forum!) to finish off a job well done. Kudos!

Wow, that is top-notch. Kitbashing is an art that I highly admire and have yet to master even the rudimentaries. Outstanding conversion and paintjob!!

Thank you for all the wonderful compliments!!!! You have given me much incentive to convert and paint the rest of my 500 point fleet

Can't say I know anything about this R-9 ArrowHead series; the design was actually completely fabricated from my silly imagination ^_^

I will most certainly consider this for when I paint the rest of the fleet. I really need to find a decent camera ._.
