Just some pictures of the Nayk Spider Mecha that I should have done some time ago:













The legs went on relatively painlessly which was good.
However the ubderside of the body had a huge lump of resin. I think it was there to help support the vehicle to minimise the stress on the legs. However I dremelled it off (took quite a long time!) and it appears to be strong enough.

What did surprise me was the thinness of the vehicle - I would have added an extra 5mm or so for all the greasy gubbinns - & the seating area in the back.
Again I would have used this space for silly things like an engine.
I think I will add something both to the underside and the rear, although the shape of the turret may cause some difficulty with this....

At £40, it is expensive. However I have one now, so there!

That thing is sweet! Looks like it'd work great for a Traitor Guard Defiler....I know Dave Taylor built a Stalk Tank a while ago and did rules through BOLS, I'm sure those rules would represent the tank perfectly. Now lets see it with some paint!

When i looked at that first picture I thought it was one of tem tiny scale figures then I saw the guard and thought, "Hang on wtf...."

very nice mate tho I agree with you the body is a little shallow and not increadibly long, the "wild wild west" spider was fecking huge It towered over the two story buildings when it waded through a town in one scene I believe.
