I quite like that
What extra bits have you used?

So how does it transport ANY other models?

It's supposed to be a transport, after all.

How do you fit 10 Marines in a rhino?

Maybe they just grab it and hang on for the ride, like the raider passengers, lol.

Not what I meant.
The Landspeeder Storm is a fast skimmer transport that can carry scouts. It CAN'T physically fit the models into it (with bases and without them being very good friends in a spartan way but it at least looks like a transport.

Still, I'm somewhat used to the one from the Harlequins codex in the journal.
This one:


From whispers I've heard, the actual kit when it comes out will look something like that (NOT identical, but along that line).

Nice conversion. Well, I suppose its more of a kit bash than anything...but you did a nice job adding the neccessary ornaments to define the DE look. I think thought if you wait a few months, we are going to see a venom released by GW,at least thats wha tI read in the most recent issue of WD!

I used two of the "rutters" from the new raider model, a splinter canon from the new warriors, and the rest is from the vyper.

The tail is one of the guns from the viper flipped upside down with the barrel cut off and the gunner's seat flipped upside down and glued on top of that. I put a splinter canon on the end and was done. The wings were extended, as it were, by cutting the mid section out of the rutters and gluing them under the wings. Then a few spiky bits from raiders on the front, and a DE head on the driver.

I'll add a second splinter canon underneath when I get one.

I can actually fit two other models (bases and all) in between the tail and the driver. I know, I tried. And if you figure there are guys grabbing on the hull and wings in a totally unrealistic fashion it could maybe, kinda get five. Beyond that all I have to say is: try fitting twelve marines in a drop pod.

Thanks.

Yeah, I'm impatient. And with GW a few months could be 6, and I plan on playing this in two weeks.
