I guess he is just a bit shiny. But that's awesome!

Amazing Work!

Thanks ChocolateGork, think its just the way the camera took the pic as has a very matt finish.

Anyways, Well, while I wait for better weather to get some primeing done I started work on a LRR I got. Managed to carefully remove a set of re-enforced armour off an older tank, still broke into bits(damn that FW resin). Still it adds t the battle damage and general wear and tear of X amount of years service.

Basic side shot, the chains along the bottom are stuck with blutack to show where they are going to go. Won't be able to finish this for about 2 weeks due to bits site not sending anything out until after the 3rd.

Never really a fan of having a BT SM stuck up top manning a gun when he could be down on the ground grinding up flesh with a chainsword. So this time built a automated MM turret. Will probably do the rest of my LRC like this when I get around to them in this revival project.





C&C welcome.

These are fantastic for the simple reason they actually look like crusading space knights!! Truly amazing. I especially like the banner bearer. He looks ace, really captured the medieval feel with him. People have already commented on the models movement so no nee to go there. I just really love these guys. You're gonna need to do something with the land raider to keep the "knightly" look going.....

Imp. Monkey

i second that - you've built a great sense of movement into everything, but kept the looking natural and "real". fine work!

Love the MM turret. Going to steal that idea shamelessly.

Very cool. I love the high amount of accessories you put on the normally boring backpacks. Also love the MM turret!

_Tim?

Thanks very much all. I think I got a fair amount of movement out of my 2nd crusader squad(not posted that yet, not finished). When doing Bt army, empire and bretonnia bits are your best friends. In the art work on BT's you mostly always see a little dagger or sword stuck somewhere and the little empire state troop bits and bobs really come in handy.

@ wolfshadow, shamelessly indeed glad you like it.

@ Imperial Monkey, still to add a few banners and if I can find them some more empire knight sheilds so I got 3 down each sde. Was going to use the FW BT sheilds but a bit big and distract a little from the tank itself.

@ Some_Call_Me_Tim?, well I couldn't leave them bare, see I like to add extra work for myself when it comes to painting stuff, lol. Oh, giving your forum name you'll love my next idea.

Oh yeh, I especially like the thunder hammers in place of vents on the commanders backpack, nice touch
