I loved the idea of a big heavy tank to go with my 1950's style Primaris Retromarines, but the kit is so very modern looking I had to bash it up a bit. The dome turret was provided from a Kharadron airship, and I sanded down a lot of the sharp edges on the hull to make it fit my aesthetic a bit better. Lastly, I shuffled around a lot of the weapon system and combined a lot of them into a generic missile pod, because holy cow the repulsor is a dog's breakfast of guns and rockets.

That looks exceptionally neat! I like it quite a bit more than the actual kit, i think

Superb. You made a turd of a model look attractive/interesting and you coupled it with a nice and attractive colour scheme.

Nice! Will send this to my buddies (who, amusingly also all think the new hover tanks look like ass).

Great job really like the 50's look, you got going on.

This gives me a Hammer's Slammer Panzer feel. I love the look.

Excellent work! I remember seeing this as a work in progress, and the final product definitely does your concept justice.
