saw this on another thread....i think need is a bit steep to say in this circumstance but heck she looks stunning...




Yeah, plenty of shells to fire off at the enemy. But now you see the mad inspiration for my monster tanks!

Oh yeah, definitely a major runner up for the role of the lady Kommissar Zhvedvedova!

Well, what is not to like about her? We mini gamers and our sculpted women!

well she certainly has too obvious reasons for being tempted to make a purchase on her...a sword AND a boltgun with a drum mag...not what you were thinking^^

They sculpted this with zBrush?

Well, she certainly has my attention!

lol...hypnotizing commssar^^

by the way went to try to post a smallish pakage only to get some bureaucrats rambling about package size...will have to repack it into a fiting size and then send it today for definite... by the way giving the transfertime from me to you, will you still be staying were you then rightfully belong or will you be on travel?

Yep! she is one of the better looking female sculpts in the 28mm ranges out there.

Yeah no chasing for now. I will be selling spare Warmachine and 40k minis I have no need or use for, but Infantry of the IG I am still low on.

footsloggers are like chips, you can never have enough^^

And you go through them just as fast in a battle!

lol...that was mean^^ but not when you have powerblobs with meltas and plasma... then you choke on them^^

I was speaking from the experience of having lost a 30-man platoon as they were assaulted by Marines in HtH combat as opposed to shooting. The problem when you fight wearing no better than a flak jacket with a knife while you face down power armor wearing foes. A smart commander just has to know how to take advantage of such a loss when it happens by the right positioning of the other troops in his command!

Well, dug out the Malcador(Char-B1) and removed the tracks for the fresh, re-touch of shadow gray, it was spray painted in that color, but for some reason that came out pale and very more gray than shadow gray. Anyway, I am now going to make a stab at touching up all those unpainted areas, the tracks, and decal work before I use the salt infused Graveyard Earth for the mud effects. This was one of my first Major conversion projects, as many have seen with the Perun scratch built tank, my skills have improved since this Malcador.

Anyway, the pre-paint pics before I had to re-charge my camera batteries.

very slim looking beauty she is! and with the treads loose she looks as if she has lost her skirt even ... lol...

Found pics of her online, and so many of the designs I did, and yours too! Now that the camera is re-charged, time to take the finished photos!

LOL! Naughty of you Vik!

new pics?...*sits straight and waits patiently*

If you thought that was hot before, you should say something, and I will unveil the finished piece!

the mud looks awsome on this one!
i love how you let actual kills go into a fluffy built with the killmarkings^^ 4 monoliths is quite a feat in itself!!!

and the rest of the kills measures up to 300??? or am i wrong in this one?

the crusty muddeffects is a definite i will try out with my smaller tanks...be sure of that^^

6 Monoliths once you add in the kills from the right sponson, the left will have kills of normal tanks.

300= 3rd company, command tank-0 of command squad section-0, so 3-0-0

I used some green flock mixed with the paint to get that effect, it worked well with the effect, (salt is too regular).

Hey, you know I am a freak for fluff!

ah so that... hell it could even be spart for all i can understand^^...

that tank then is quite a killer...or that oponent of yours someone who is either not a good gamer or such a luckless chap....he needs some good fortune^^

yeah fluffy models!

Kind of a mix, and it was not just a single opponent that tank has killed!

Now for a tank that you all remember and love! But now dirty!

I have started the templates for the treads of the T-300 heavy tank, a cross between above and a Leman

i would go for a wooden look... the way i did it was make a dheneb stone basecoat and then wash like hell is after you with devlan mud till oblivion^^ thus i made this:


also i just re- realize how many guns that tank has! holy...

i am ithcy to see some pics of the new creations... do you will go the plasticcard road yet again?... seems this is your kind of material... i think i stick for the time being with cardboard... so armsrace is not only amry wise but material wise as well^^

Plastic card, and old GW tank bits. Looks good, so i will repaint the planks!

Most of the new T-300 is assembled already, Must snap pics to show off.

bloddy hell... you are already done and not showing... and i am lazy and gawking at pics that ain´t happening instead of doin`mekswork...

The dizzying speed of our patriotic workers at the tank factory is shown by the rapidity with which our tanks roll off the assembly lines, None wishing to be out done by the decadent Bourgeoisie of the other factories of planets such as the Viktorians or others less fervent workers, and to shine as an example to all others that their hard work and efforts will pay off, all for the Emperor!

i am shocked... shellshocked^^ this is running fast...well treadshoes to use is a good way of getting work done faster... still remember how long it took ye to make the scratchbuilt ones for the perun! i myself am currently working on the sponsons...looks like you make a double faced sponson...
by the way... how tall does a LR stand? and how much height is between hull and ground under the leman russ? need to know as i want to know where to put the tracks height wise...

looks very promising and my i add like a bit of a run of the mill... you are getting really fast in that department...^^

The Lemnan Russ sits about 1/2" off the ground between the tracks (15-20mm?) and sits about 2.25inches About 55-60mm? at the track system top. No need to get that precise your tank looks like it may be shorter, (whole different design there, but the armor and weapons would be about the same.

The Perun gave me ideas and techniques worked out for speeding the process, if I had to make the track shoes by hand again, likely be working on the belly plate by now as I would have made simpler shoes.

Okay doing the sitting on top trick again.

This shot gives more idea of the width.

Standing side by side, the T-300 tracks are 65mm tall.
[/img]

the chimera is yet again dwarfed by this new tank...thanks for the measurements.... i will have to set the tracks and the mainpart in some kind of realtion acording to these data. i know different types fully explain different heights but still...there should be some relation^^

will update soonish^^...

Well, you were looking for ground clearance, and on GW tanks it is usually about that half inch or so. The Chimera's belly armor only clears 10mm off the table top
