Viktor von Domm wrote:i am totally with you in temrs of scheme diversity... the panzer jäger scheme screams to be used on one keilerkopf at least...you have enough troops already painted in the green/orange scheme that a designated transport makes sense to me... besides, it will give you more opportunities to have kill team possibilities... and you could even let the guard teams battle each other at home too
I figure the Green then the sand and browns (light made it look orangish), will work for a differentiation, and also spot forces.More possibilities is all!

Personally feel your little tank steels the show a bit.
My good manic moments, may as well take advantage of the productivity while it lasts!
Yeah the little guy does have a special charm!

Very charming little tank. The rivets look great on it, btw.
Thank you. it is hard to get the PVA ones to form just right. Once air gets in the canula, it causes troubles!

I know things have been quiet, but took a breather, and ma back to adding camo to the vehicles.

Yes, actually I have done some before, but the bigger vehicles means taking one on a different table! Some re bigger than landraiders in size!

Love to see the next one you do.
Nice work on the scratch builds. I did a lot of that using insulation foam and cardboard with wire nails to hold the cardboard in place. They double duty as reivets.

Of course! I have 43 pics to load up and share of the green blotches added to the vehicles.
Thanks! the PVA glue rivets are like making cake or candy decorations and the model is the cake/candy!

and camo is coming on very great looking... as currently on some tanks a kinda water camo like appearance would n´t you agree?
Yeah great guess work for the vault!
I always labeled this color camo pattern "Highland Tundra" or "Tundra Highland" pattern camo, the black squiggles help as "shadow efftects breaking the grassy green with the watery blue.
Now for a Hammer wheeled APC

But the real Hammer is the Nuclear weapon Deathstrike

ever played megalomania? there was a winning line...:we nuked them...we´ve won...
classy^^
i always thought about making some kind of deathstrike concept tank... but i still haven´t found a way around it... to make it look sound... in my humble opinion... the chimera is a wee bit too wee for that missile...

Loved those games.
Yes, the Chimera is a over-worked machine by the Imperium, LOL! But yeah, make one with a bigger vehicle, a Leman Russ was always sturdier and chunkier than the Chimera.
Now the two Hammers as they are now, the las-cannon armed one as well as the flamer version

Oh and the other Hanomag with the start of my splinter pattern

Viktor von Domm wrote: that is such a contrasting scheme of camo when we are used to your highland tundra as it is more organic... but i like both immensely nevertheless...
and i am more thinking about a scud like platform... way longer and because it is 40k chunkier^^
Thank you Vik!
Hmmm, a Scud like bed mount, multiple axles, nice!

I Very much like the Jagged / Urban Camo scheme there..... Looks quite brutal "in a good way" ... and with a little amount of weathering perhaps it will calm it down a little and really tie the design together! I have said it a few times... but I am a real fan of that model!!
Not wanting to highjack..... but a Scud like Launcher.... I had a similar idea a while back that nevr saw the light of day.. but how about something like a CRASSUSS front cabin with a large launch pad / missile bed mounted? Kind of like the PRAETOR.....
Back to Shas.... that collection of armour is looking awesome! .... very inspiring stuff!

Thank you Biff! camo is still in early stages on all my vehicles. Hanomag by Dreamforge is awesome.
Now for the large landship style APC, the Las-cannon armed version

I do like to work in different forms of camo.
