Hello community i wanted to show how i plan on ataching the sponsons on the TermUlt LR.

Are they to low? I had considerd hard mounting the guns forward but decided i wanted to keep the movable sponson effect.

Any advice or critique welcome. Please no bashing of the Terminus kit, Im looking to for constructive critique. Thank you.

here is a modified config that seems to work better altho im not sure of the small post atachments under the las cannons.. altho its the same bit used to under sling them ot the predator sponsons.... what do yall think???

Much prefer the second one. The first one just doesn't look right. The second one though, makes more sense, as all the guns can fire at a single target.

BYE

OK finaly the third version.. with bulkyer turret assemblys. They are currently hard mounted but i wil be making them movable.

OK here is the final bad boy.. with fully moviable Single sponson turrets in line over the duals. Also below is a detail of the mounting. I dont know what the weird speckling is under the bright light but it looks solid DA green under normal lighting.. weird...

Nice piece of conversion work, it looks good to me!

Much better than the stock kit.

Well done man. Looks a lot better than the stock one.

The one you went with is far and away the best of the 3 and as everyone else is saying, better than the stock kit.

Very cool.

The Terminus I got turned into a regular Land Raider, with the Predator Sponsons being donated to a spare Chaos Rhino I had floating around.

Seeing yours though almost makes me want to go out and buy a Terminus kit. I have all the bits you've used too, including the backs of the Russ Turret hatch you've used for the edges of the sponsons.

Did you drill holes in the top of the hull so that it could move?

BYE

Very nice work on that! I have just finished mine and that turret assembly is a much better style/option/design.
Good work.

H.B.M.C... Here is the pivot assembly...
I uses a small drill tomake the initial hole but the hole has to be deep enought to pass through the inner dor ..so it works as support keeping the gun from tipping over. If you only drill shallow the gun tilts foraward because its unbalanced. so the post is uses pasing through two holes.. keeping it upright

I was just wondering how the lascannons that are mounted above the tracks are supposed to work without a power source ?
Personally i would build some form of housing on top of the track armour , that way you can have power cables of some form attached to the cannon and something that could in theory move the cannons to aim.

Do you question everything the tech preists of mars have in thier arsenal?, Its a nanometer magnalocked ballbearing assembly from the dark age of technology(how that answer?)... But since you now know.. you need to stay where you are.. An inquisitional recovery team is en route...

Actualy.. I tried to do that by placing the small housing (rear of leman turret bit) around the base... It hides the mounting and makes it look bulky... I have another thread called the Lions hammer in this forum.. showing the attached look..http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/206324.page
