No pic, as for some reason it won't upload :(
Whoah. I just checked that site out. Those are quite decent prices for vehicles. If you're not looking for a
GW-official army, that'd be a nice cheap place to get chassis to start conversions from. And guns, too.
1/32nd is a little large for
40K, isn't it? 28mm is about 1/48th,
iirc?
Anyways, back on-topic: Ridiculously large gun is ridiculously large. It's
40K, whatever. The trailer, fixed gun etc. are all about the historical nod, not about making a killer unit. That's
FW for you, and I for one appreciate it. Armies went to war with the gear they had, and only occasionally with the gear they wanted. Things were bodged together even on the national production scale. In this way the object has a narrative inherent in it. that's the brilliance of
FW and their books- telling a story, not just making the
40K toys that we want.
