Subject: The Cult Ascendant! - A Genestealer Cult log (updated 1/29/2014)
When the info from the new Codex started popping up, I realized how easily I could modify my existing trucks to easily represent the new Goliath Truck.
Here you can see my efforts on the two Goliath trucks I've bashed out from my old Cult trucks - now geared up to represent proper Goliath Trucks. Sadly, the Goliath can't carry hunter-killer missiles, so I'm trying to decide if I should remove the "tube missile" launchers or just leave them in place and just treat them as part of the twin-linked autocannon profile.

Truck 2
Here is the new progress on my Limo. My plan is to use it as another Goliath Truck, with the running boards and pop-top roof helping to represent the open-topped nature. (When the passengers shoot, I figure they just roll down all the windows and let loose, drive-by style!) The Limo is roughly the right footprint, but not quite tall enough to match the Goliath profile completely. (Though this is a double-edged sword as it's biggest guns - the twin-linked autocannons, are significantly lower than they would be on the Goliath.)
I think my favorite details on any of these are the hood ornament and "diplomatic flag" on the Limo. Note the tiny Genestealer Cult icons on the flag, one on each side.
I have put the finishing touches on my Genestealer Cult Goliath Trucks and my Limo (which counts-as a Goliath Truck). Here they are in all their glory:
