I'm not getting what you're saying, but I rarely play, I model more for the fun of modelling. That said, no advantage was intended on my part, I just didn't like the Forgeworld one based on the Leman Russ hull, I like the Chimera hull better is all.

@ LazzurusMan- I found the easiest way to cover the top was to cut off the turret ring and do a whole new top hull.

Which is based on a LRBT, so the same outcome either way.

I even want to say that the right hand is from Tremor II and the left hand is from possibly Mandarin Spawn or maybe the Blue guy from Wetworks. Maybe.

They are both from Mandrin spawn. I did strip them and repaint them though.

Thanks! The head/heads is indeed from the defiler, but I added green stuff to it as it didn't cover the neck. The skull mask is underneath that one with the eyes painted gloss red, so in person whatever way you turn it the eyes kinda glow.

Well done, looks good. The Hellblade is a ten times cooler model than the new Heldrake. Just can't get my head round it at all. You've done the right thing.

Here is my Chaos Lord on Juggernaught. I know, I know... "You can't have a terminator on a mount, blahblahblah...", but that's the way I made it and it just counts as having regular Power Armor in gameplay.

And here is my "Cerberus" Chaos Land Raider! I am loving how it turned out!

I love that Cap one, are there any plans of modeling the rest of the Avengers as a squad? Though I guess the Hulk would make a pretty poor scout, lol.

Also Kingcracker, very good miniature, and your son paints excellently.
