I finished my second IG fast attack vehicle based on a Tamiya1/48 Soviet Gaz 67B.
As suggested by others here, I'm treating them as unarmored Scout Sentinels.
They are mounted with the shorter barrel Sentinel AC, which fits them just perfect.

Very nice - though I think the crew may need new spines once the patrol is over

I love the little details like the map flying out of the jeep on the right!

LOl. It just occured to me: What is the Bottom armor value of a jeep?

Bottom armor: tissue paper. In all seriousness, I really like these and they're a replacement full of character for the sentinels.

Just wow, now there's a wonderful merging of a factual idea and in game mechanics. Bravo sir.

Loving the idea out right, nice work on finding a scale jeep that worked well with IG.

Very cool I like the movement you modeled in there. I like all the off-brand models you use in your IG, do you have any pictures to the full army so far and/or a link to it?

the camo looks like a simple catachan green with scorched earth and a thick black dividing line... simples

I want a tutorial on how you did the tiny Guard codex in the second Gaz

Excellent work!

Thanks! I shrunk 'em in Photoshop. You're very close on the camo.... it's Vermin brown with a touch of Dark Flesh.

I've never been a fan of the whole "Sentinels as small vehicles" concept but despite that the painting and modelling on these is ace. Good job!

I used the original driver sitting legs that came with kit, and glued a IG torso to it. The 1/48 legs were skinny in scale, but you really can't tell
once the IG driver torso is added.

Awesome job! These are really cool models! I love the fact that you put autocannons on them, if I may be so mundane. Good choices on these models!

Very good, only thing I would have done is put different heads on them otherwise you nailed the look of the vehicles.
