I had ANOTHER major varnish SNAFU. I ended up hastily repainting the back end, but the varnish did go on too thick and there's a couple spots here and there where you can see some thickness to it. Oh well. At this point, after having freaked out majorly over it and then had an emergency four hour repainting session, I'm done worrying. It's good enough, but flawed.

For the weathering I made sure to hit the edges of all the deployment ramps with some mud effects. I accidentally got some on the chapter symbols, then I thought about it and realized 'yeah, those would get messy slapping down into the mud' and left them as they ended up.

I also added a quicky alternate roof so it can be hot swapped into being a Rhino. If I get another Whirlwind turret, it can also act as that.

I think you've done a really nice job, I find black really hard to paint. The only issue I got is that on some portions there is too much black and it looks kinda flat, for example, the front. I dont know hot to fix it but that's just what I see

I agree with Karokk, black is so difficult to paint. try some weathering and battle damage. Nice over all though.

Thanks for the feedback, guys. Yeah, the major problem I have is the huge planes of flat black. It's why I add things like scrollwork. The starboard side of the vehicle looked a little plain in retrospect, though.

Sad to say there was MORE battle damage to it before the hasty repaint. I was just too exhausted to go at it again. I should probably revisit it once I'm done with my terminators.
