Yeah. It is shame. Once everything is assembled though, noone can tell since the outer doors will cover the missing inner doors.

I got the land raider assembled yesterday. I have been working on the front turret and side sponsons. I want to bring it on the table as soon as I can. Hopefully this weekend.

Patience is what it takes to build those darn raiders! and concentration! :-) I love the finished result when i do them but i hate the building part, yours is coming along niceley the interior looks very good and smooth as! i'll be looking forward to the end result, soon i hope?

Yes, with the tank size brush that I have, I should have the entire outer part done in 1 hour or less.

So despite my effort, Pedro went ahead and bought a land raider Redeemer with a 0% APR for 1 millennium. Look at him so happy with his new ride. Now all the girls are gonna stare when he rolls up.

He just needs some neons underneath

LOL. Word.

@Hazzer: thanks man. I will. But I need to turn on signature

Side sponsors are now painted up. Most things that will eventually be bleached bone has been basecoated with dheneb stone.

Looking good dude, Pedro is tight! the colours work nicely together and your lining work is great it helps bring everything together and really stand out!

looking forward to seeing the raider done! i'm currently building my own with some additions which i'll chuck some pics on my blog tomorrow.

keep it up, how many have you finished now?

I still love that Pedro

Great work as always dude! I will try to get by a game store earlier in the day so we can play!

Yeah, I am pretty busy these days so not much game store. :(

Yesterday I finished magnetizing the side sponsons. Note: make sure to use N52 1/8 1/16 magnets for side sponsons. Otherwise, it won't be strong enough.

I had to drill another slot to put in an extra set of magnets since my other 1/16 1/32 N35 magnets are apparently not strong enough.

Looking good man! kep it up!

So I finally finished painting the left half of the land raider in the bone color. I also magnetize the front panels so putting on the sponsons is easy. I will probably magnetize the back doors as well. But there is still quite some work to be done for the other side of the land raider.

Sweet ride you got there. Quite a nice bone colour. Looking forward to more and subscribed.

It's looking good man! keep it up!

looking good. love the libby and raider and rep on the bleached bone pedro,
I use the army painter for my deathwing also.
peace

Looking good dude!

One full bleached bone bottle of GW stuff finished.

do you use a airbrush for stuff you paint?

No I don't. Living in an apartment means the choice is limited to only paint brushes. The camera does hide away some of the irregularities on the model (sides only). The top part is sprayed with Army Painter so it is much more consistent than the sides and the back.

I made such a mistake NOT spraying this drop pod with a can of Skeleton Bone. Now I spend most of my time trying to get the color to be consistent.

And I need to finish that Land Raider too. Sigh.

Its ok

So I took a Priority Mail flat rate box home and cut it up and make it into a lightbox. I think the box is too big since the light doesn't seem to be enough. Either that or I am missing the side lights. Either way, here is another pix of Pedro.

The land raider side doors have been painted black as well. Now I need to work on the Multi-melta turret on top.

So the land raider side doors are done as well. Now to finish off the Drop Pod. Or should I work on more bikes? Or maybe some turrets on top?

What do you guys think?

very nice land raider.

I am jealous.

Finish what you've started! work on the raider then finish something else, i find if i bounce from one to another too much I end up getting flat about it all and then giving up for a while! and plus the raider is looking good and all finished up as a centerpiece would be awesome.

Get this raider done brother then work on anouther project.
Peace

Thanks guys.

So I got back and assembled more pieces thinking that I will finish the land raider. But then there is a tornado outside (heavy rain) so I cannot prime these stuff that I assembled. I guess I will have to work on something else in the mean time. I do have all the pieces for the land raider I believe.

Now, does the multi-melta turret goes to the front turret hole? Or is it the back turret hole?
