Built and painted this while unemployed, didn't have the money for one so I built one out of stuff I had lying around.

It's not perfect but came out pretty well.

Thanks for looking!

Looks great to me

Looks great! Everything fits together well.

That looks great, better than the kit, IMHO. The techmarine really looks like an artillery loader rather than a generic Tech.

That's a neat conversion! The Thunderfire cannon is also kind of huge, but I dig it.

Great stuff. Don't suppose you've got any WIP shots?

Badass.

Love the look of both of them. But it does bring up horrible memories of building the old metal Thunderfire cannon.

Why yes, yes I do.

Cheers for the links, makes the build process quite clear. Hope you don''t mind if I borrow a few ideas from this.

Once again, awesome stuff.
