Now I know what your probably thinking and yes I have lost it

But does anyone have any ideas on what I can use to make jump packs for sentinels? my first thought was Tau battlesuits but then I realised how expensive it will get having to buy a battlesuit with every sentinel, other suggestions will be much appreciated.

My skills with plasticard are a bit lacking so I would prefer things I could convert to fit with greenstuff or just extensive knife use.

Holy jumping sentinels batman!

Tau battlesuits actually doesn't sound half bad, as they certainly have the oomph to lift a sentinel. I suppose the positioning of a rocket, or something similar to the back of the cab wouldn't look too amiss?

This may interest you.

You tease! At least tell him what it is

That's a FW elysian drop sentinel, right? Looks like most of your work's done for you, OP

It could make a good base to start from, but i'm sure those are only grav chutes to get it to the ground safely whereas I am looking for something to recklessly fire my sentinels accross the battlefield

Although those compact engines might be good for building a jump pack over so thanks for showing my them (completely forgot they existed)

Not sure on size, but you could press cast part of a vindi top plate.

Cut it to size and recast?

BA single thrust jump packs may work, I think its the right size.
