I still need the thing as I made the insert part of the turret, the support casemate is too built up inside to use it, and it would look sillier, I will add more material to the resin turret ring segment, and then maybe putty it you so it will actually look more substantial as a part to support the turret.

Thanks, I did also make the plasma turret by accient as a mirror flip of the las-cannon turret, so both directions layouts will be tried. I will also be shimming them as the gap between turret and ring is due to the one part being taller than expected, and I do not have the tools to shave the things down.

hello shaso!
again, it´s been a while... sorry mate... or better I feel sorry for myself for missing out on so much building action on my own favourite tank model... the mark V!!!
what a cool conversion you did...and even twice!
the turrets and the whole built up structure looks very nice and helps amazingly well to tie in your old WWI tanks to your rather modern khardovian army...very well done!
and the envy has no end as the new witch hunter model is an amazing model, I think eventually I will have to get me one of these for myself too!...the super hero is also a very cool one and the agent grant mini is a fine addition to your fold... your inquisitional forces are growing ever so strongly!

I am now eager to see you start painting those tanks then!!! cheers, vik

Well hey Vik! I could not pass up the lower price for models that were so asking for conversion! Now when I did the pics the model b had no railings or grabs, that is now a non-issue. I did not add a rail to the forward decking. It is a tall beast!

Going to try doing rails on your creations?

I am unbending and re-bending paper clips for the hand and foot grabs.


I did see that you went with 2-tone splinter patterning! Good choice, I did see that all 3 colors on the marine kinda all blended.

I like adding those simple touches.

Well, they are downright slim compared to ole' Baney!

Well, maybe for another time, I have been inspired by another to make something of a smaller scale, say the 3-man variety? I just need to order me some tracks, maybe some more bitz as well. They only need single width treads for what I plan, so some packs of Zinge treads, maybe and some Imperial tank bits from Hoard o Bitz as I always get my bitz!

I also want to make more fallout squads, and more super mutants as Ogryns

I am also debating a new thread, leave this one for tanks and mechs and another for personalities and squaddies, Or just keep at this where I place whatever I am working on and maybe rename the thread?

Yeah, I do like to tie in the armies troops/vehicles and make them make sense of sorts.

Wild style, hmm chaotic, maybe use as many colors in the tag as possible for Monkeytroll!!

Well, I decided to add 2 new factions to my stuff, I will work the name of both for the Khadrovian mix when not using them for other or Infinity, but also good small skirmish, some of the "Republics" that are part of the Khadrovian Union of United Republics send what they can, some do not have massive regiments to send for service, but smaller bands of Guerilla and special operatives for when they need to do less power intensive missions, or as some have seen in my blog, to deatchments of the Inspector Generals of the S.C.H.M.E.R.T.Z. branches for dealing with mutants, Psykers and other abominations.

From the diverse and mixed Republic of Volg







And from the Republic of Na-Damask





I figure these two factions will grow on me more as time goes by and this will allow e to make bigger squads as I match the minis up.

Well, all know what will come next on the tank/transports.

Araidna for my collection to make them cross over will make for 40k part of the Volg Republic, I am fleshing out the how is it they haz werewolves thing. For Deadzone they would be rebs, or a outcast corporation.

Haqqislam for 40k will be the Na-Damask Republic which trades with the Volg Republic as they both use similar rifle layouts like AK-47's in space, for the Deadzone, more like a corporate.

Meanwhile, the Murmanskyan forces have heavy weapons ready to be primed an painted.
