Went with the sob twin. me like.

Those are interesting... too bad you can't zoom in on the images.

Are they actual figures from the P engines?

Seconded, what is the metal female model on the right ?

The one on the left is the male penitent engine driver, the female figure was in a pile from Vik, you'd need to ask him

Zoomable pic, as requested!

Next stage is gs cables (yay tube tool!)

Also, the back:

Need to plastruct that gap and cover in purity seals, and also make a footplate for the female one.
Oh, and scavenge another sentinel from somewhere

The female one wasn't from me

Tube tool?

Looking good although I'd like to see the legs beefed up a little but that's personal preference.

You've been busy it seems. Way too much has passed for me to catch up on, but I'll dig through the ancient posts later to look at pictures. I know you've been doing good work, such as the great job you did ruining those Rhinos. The only hope for them now is to be 'requisitioned' by a massive horde of Cultists.

Here's my pre-build pic.

Recycled parts are...
bar-room brawler (D&D miniature)
land raider (Epic)

also includes an assortment of very old plasma cannons and conversion beamer (not sure what I'll use) and there will be a head swap probably... and a third-party servo arm. Not sure where I'm going with this build just yet... we'll see how it all comes together.

My build is done. This is a gun servitor sporting an antique plasma gun. There isn't much left of the bar room brawler unfortunately. His head (bearded) wasn't very servitor-like and his arms were really much to short. Made the whole figure look off (I tried).

You can still clearly see the Epic Land Raider though. I wanted to give the impression that this a micro engineering vehicle, so I added the plow and tow chain as well as other bits.

On to the painting!

That's awesome, Gits! Really funky.

Hey gits that's looking ace! you are well into the task of repurposing.
@Skalk - great to hear from you again buddy. yes, there is a lot of random here and speaking of rhinos:



I had to use chimera tracks and will need to build front and back up as I'm short those.
hey ho,
graven

A mighty Rhino! That dozer blade is great, IG?

And so it begins anew... another vehicle is born.

@Casey: Indeed! The very best.
@ gits: too true

BTW, I got an awesome prezzie in the post:

Quality pic stolen from gits too!

Update about the contest later, stay tuned...

Lol...what a cool pic , I guess charlie don't surf?

Haha, I remember that little fellow, lovely stuff.

LOL! Good one Vik!

There's now a surf shack on that beach called Charlie Does Surf

So, some news of sorts. I've decided to extend the contest deadline to Oct 31st; but why?
1) to stir up a bit more interest
2) to give folk a bit more time
3) I'm going to be without regular net access for the best part of a month. We're getting the kitchen and Man-cave redone, which means minis etc boxed away and no broadband.*sigh* a necessary sacrifice to have a kitchen I actually want to Cook in! but, a bit of a bugger nonetheless.

Are folk happy with this?

Still not ready to apply... Too much work underway already !

Yes, thanks graven.

happy...hmmm.... it comes with a hefty fee...

No worries mate but I do hope we get to see your pretty new kitchen when it's done.

I'll post a reminder of your competition tonight in my blog but I don't get that much traffic. Hope it helps a bit. Sounds like it's just me and Gits right now.

Yeah, thanks for nuffin mate:p I entered my mega grot quite early... grumml

Oh yeh! Sorry it's been so long now. Have you started painting yet?

Nope...I seldom get in a painting mood...I actually have to force myself into it

^Tru dat

speaking of which...



tanky!

Nice tanky. I like what you've done to the front.

Thankyou kindly! it's the two sentinel cockpits left over from the penitent engines

Looks interesting, but also very car- like...
