(Not to be confused with the Salamander Space Marine Chapter)

At some point in the future I'm looking to add some of these to my collection, but FW discontinued the kit a while ago so it looks like this will be a scratch build. Seems like a simple one, too; just need to decide if I'll use a basic Chimera kit or one of the "up armored" looking ones, like in the Manticore kit.

What does your Salamander look like? I am on a quest for inspiration and have seen quite a few on the Google Images, but would like to see what the Dakkites are up to in this regard.

No pictures since I sold it years ago, but it's a VERY easy conversion from the base chimera. Just leave off the top/back end like you would a Basilisk, add a couple plasticard shields over the top, a plasticard floor then a spare autocannon & crew from the heavy weapons teams and you're good.

Here was one I made.
