Uncle Tom will be left out in the open, but the hurricane bolters and Dreds should take care of any heretics silly enough to stray too close to the front, back or sides of the transport!

Just a quick picture to show size comparison between the transport and Titan hunter, with rhino for scale. Transport isn't as menacing as Bertha, but the payloads it can carry are dangerous enough! And the rhino won't quite fit inside. I tried, but gave up through fear of breaking something!

All Your missing is another dred transport, backed by two larger tanks carrying assult infantry, and bolter marines, and about 3 smallish biker squads. Got a small 4000pt spearhead army goin on. lol.
Looks nice. What happened to the dozer blade on Bertha?

I broke it trying to make it better. Going to try and make some supports for it that look like pistons. All I need to do after that is add the other marine on the back and a few big cannon shells and Bertha is complete.
Anyone wanna paint her?

Haha, I WOULD, but my painting skills are not that great. And you would have to ship her over seas...bad idea

Probably not the best. My painting skills are mediocre at best. I don't want to do a shoddy paint job on something that turned out a lot better built than I expected. Plus, I've never painted anything bigger than I rhino. I wouldn't know where to start. The crew on Bertha just need a couple of shoulder pads to finish them off. Going to sort the dozed blade out then call it construction complete. Starting to wish I'd given it wider tracks and extra armour. It's armed to the teeth but only has standard rhino armour.

If I may constructively critique, adding GW bits to flat card-stock often leaves the model lacking. You end up with detail bits surrounded by smooth walls and floor, you don't even need to go crazy with building more, just add some trim pieces or reinforced edges with extra card and it will looks more solid.

AH! just noticed a possible breakage of gravity. SM Boltguns next to cannon loaders, there is no rack for the guns, simply just the guns glued to plasticard! Easy fix, take bit sprew or a tiny straw, and cut a couple pieces to put under each gun and look like a gun rack.
