I just wanted to share my work with you guys and find out what you guys think! I did this about 1 and a half 2 years ago this was my second project. My first tank ( Baal Predator) isnt charged and i cant seem to find my darn charger . Since then ive done 2 Landspeeders (front light and cockpit) and a Defiler (lighted faceplate and the eyes from the face on its back and that thing thats chained closed). Unfortunately i dont have pics of them because i dont have them (i made em fore friends) and the defiler isnt even painted which makes me a bit mad because i spent the most time on it. The paintjob was done by a buddy of mine Bochi because i cant really paint. Enjoy!

heres what my tank looks like.


Heres a good frontal shot where you can see the lights really well.


Heres the Laser pack its lighted too (it was a getting it back together after i cut it apart)


And heres the charger and button to turn the lights on.


so ok tell me what you guys think!!

Love the Monolith. I have long planned on "remoting" a Leman Russ Vanquisher in my IG army. I don't think I would have the time or skill to do it. Nice work on both models though.

Did you see the white dwarf article a few years ago with a tutorial on how to light up a marine? I think they did it with night lords if I'm not mistaken.

Waaagh!

A friend of mine, Eric-Jan also did some floating 1k tanks. Here are links from his photobucket:

Also check his terminators (based on fantasy tomb king models) in the first picture.

This just made me think it would be pretty cool to build a laser pointer into the barrels of different lascannon toting tanks or titans.

*click* "Yes... yes he does."

Pretty cool work on the Pred too. I was going to do something similar on my landraider, but I just couldn't bring myself to do all the work.
