Here is my Cyclops/killdozer!!! enjoy!!!
C&C welcome!!

I really like that! What bit's did you use? I can see a variety of autocannon bits, and general details but what's the basic structure?

Old bits from other types of models, heavy weapon bits, lots of green stuff, and a lot of practice, got another two that didnt quite come out right!

Rugged n cool looking!

out of interest is this where you got the idea from?

I think he got it from the German "Goliath" Robot Bomb used in WWII (Called the "Doodlebug" by Allied forces).

I thought we called the V2 rockets doodlebugs?

On topic: Really like the Killdozer's paintstyle.

Hmm... I have a book I bought - It's really just a photo album of Canadian troops across the three main theatres during the war - and one shot had an Engineer holding up one of the Goliath bombs and the caption called it a 'Doodlebug'... Then again it WAS the 40's. Everything had a nickname that ended in 'oodle' back then.

To be honest, i saw the pic from the game COH, then went mad!!

Wikipedia says: "The Goliath tracked mine was a remote controlled German-engineered demolition vehicle, also known as the beetle tank to Allies. "

And also: "Doodlebug, A colloquial name for the V-1 flying bomb, a World War Two-era cruise-missile."

Victory is mine! Or the caption is right and wikipedia is wrong?

@Ricecake: I love that game, and considering how devastating Goliaths are for the Wermacht it doesnt suprise me how you wanted your own 40k version.

Looks nice. Very war-torn.

Wikipedia might be wrong. It is user-edited after all (Let's not forget about the meme bit on C.S. Goto's Multilasers ), though the author of the book might have gotten messed up on the other hand.

actually wikipedia is right in this respect, doodlebug was the V1, they got a couple down the RAF museum in Hendon (about 15min drive from me in N.London). Also my nan almost got hit by one while cycling up a hill.



anyhooo MODLES! yeah its a cool looking conversion, i still like its association with the Real Killdozer, but i just thought that was cool. Also what does CoH mean (cause i know it as City of heroes and i don't think thats what you meant )

Company of heroes

Bar none.

I just wish they had Russian and Japanese Campaigns too :(


Anyway, are you making rules for them? If so, put em' up - I might make a few for my own Guard
