japehlio That is a beast! looks great! My only wee comment would be to perhaps beef up the underside of those overhangs of the hull section... but definetly looking cool!

Did you consider putting the rear sponsons on the opposite sides? So that you have a pretty much 'all-round' field of fire?

It'll take Marilyn Monroe, and Lao-Tzu, and Einstein, and Morobuto, and Buddy Holly, and Aristophanes…then all of this…all of this…was for nothing. Unless we go to the stars."

I did actually, but it looked a little off... I figured the 360 of the turrets and sponson lascannons would be sufficient. Plus, in the guard we only go forward...

I really ought to get a pic up, but I mounted flamers on the rear sponsons of my Stormlord, facing backward, so that I can flambe any orcs trying to plant explosives on the rear.

Mind you, that's because I was looking at a combo punch. Modified Baneblade "The Emperor's Hammer" taking on an anti-vehicle role complimented by a modified Stormlord "The Emperor's Anvil" in an anti-infantry role.

I want t try and take the AOBR warboss and make a command nob. Sorry about my drawing skills but in the picture he is meant to have a rocket powered grapple hook and a burna/axe combo thing. Opinions?

I take it you mean Kommando Nob?

The idea of a Burna-Axe is pretty cool, actually ,and just the sort of thing a Kommando would like.

For the Grapple Klaw- maybe use plasticard and design it like a tiny version of the Grabbin' Klaw from the Battlewagon/wartruck? There's a couple places you can find metal 'rope', or you could use jeweller's chain or string, held in place with wire and glue, as the grapple line.

I'd suggest clipping the tassels off the backpack, and removing the pole, but the two sluggas should be a fine base to add bomms and gubbins to. Greenstuff the mask right on the armoured jaw for the head.

Yeah, that'll be neat.

GENERATION 8: The first time you see this, copy and paste it into your sig and add 1 to the number after generation. Consider it a social experiment.

If yer an Ork, why dont ya WAAAGH!!

M.A.V.- if you liked ChromeHounds, drop by the site and give it a go. Or check out my M.A.V. Oneshots videos on YouTube!

This is the Kommando. This is my best conversion, as it the only model I have ever converted. I don't have any green stuff either so there is gaps that need to be filled.

Could you get a close up of that burna-axe tip? For the life of me I can't see the conversion there- it looks like a full-blown model part.


Also- if you have a little Greenstuff (and I mean a little), try covering over the bullets on the drums of the klaw.
