Next step is going to be to work the glacis and mantlet into shape, as well as the upper hull, and tread fenders.

Will wait to see the updates then.

Good progress so far Shas.

Okay a new update for a different project, I have painted and added some gear for the back rack on the mobile cannon Hanomag.

Of course paint needed to be scraped away so the glue could work

There will be touching up to fix it all.

Here with the Fire-wasp recon car for scale

And finally, the Ba-10

Mog is looking good, the additional storage is a nice touch.

That Fire-Wasp really suits the aesthetic as well.

Sorry but BA-10 is still so cute, you just know he makes a little Brrrmm noise as he trundles past that brute.

Thank you kindly Cam!

Yeah is a nice small scout, I may have to get me another one from Hasslefree and try armoring it up some.

Heck! maybe 2 and Orkify the 2nd one as a buggy!

Ba-10 does give that impression, still have to make a frame extension and bumper for it, the original was too delicate and fiddly, it is lost, so the replacement will be robust and more 40k style!

Love the fire wasp car, I think it screams to have a HUGE missile on its back . The scout car though is cracking me up with its tiny size next to the hanomag.

Sweet work on the vees. I would probably feel safer crewing the assault gun if facing daemons or Necrons, despite the open top. But small vehicles still have a place on the 40k battlefield. You still need suckers...er, I meant heroes to scout ahead of the main body, after all.

Fire wasp engine doors are where the missile launch frame would be, LOL

1/48 scale does look small compared tot he Hanomag, but the bigger the number after the 1/, the smaller things get.

Yeah someone has to speed ahead and see what is out there, of course that can be dangerous!

Idunno what else to say than you're a machine!

Goodies galore. Nice haul.

Good work on the camo'ing of things.
Good additions on the open-topped.
Nice haul. How are you going to write these into your army, or are they going to be friends of the infected enemy?

Oh yeah, and that they all hit the same day was nice too!

TY

Vehicles look better with supplies and kind of "lived in"

Oh the story will be added soon. Basically, the adeptus Mech biologis of the colony ship that landed the folks of the Republic of Volg were using DNA-retroviral aterial to make service animals, based on a Lupine animal, these will be the wolf like one holding the knife as a result of the Biologis' handicraft in such genetic splicing. humans who were bitten have the ability when either enraged or force of will, can become the big guy holding the shotgun and make excellent troops. Of course, they are now listed as abhumans, and as such, well, they have to work harder to "prove themselves" and they are usually kept away from engaging in relations with normal humans. so the Weres and Luporian troops are a dangerous force.

Hi there, Shaso. I see you, and Victor, and several others are still at it.
Sorry i was away for so long, these took a turn for the worse for me, and while there is still room to improve, at least they have started to turn around somewhat.
Still no internet, which is one of the biggest reasons for not being here on dakka for so long, but i did recently find out that My new phone allows me to access the sight.

Do you remember the discussion we had a long time ago about looting a drop pod the right and proper way for Orks? Well, good news i actually finished it, and now have an Ork super heavy looted drop pod tank. Currently, its at the paint shop, hopefully, will be done within the next month or so. I can post a pic of it If you like and give permission to do so.

I look forward to discussing tanks and paint schemes with you guys again.

Yeah long time no see!

Sorry to hear things have been so topsy-turvy for you Sebastian, Looking forwards to seeing the Drop-pod tank!

So, the Jovian Hammers, my squad of burly abhumans, is replaced as the biggest dogs in the fight! I mean looks at this!

I say, look at the size of the new puppies!
[/img]
[/img]

That wolf marine or the Luporian could out fight these guys!
[/img]

the muscle mass and sinew power, add the teeth and claws, plus that they also use weapons, like that shotty, or that huge blade.

So Grimdork, I have been ambitious today, gray stuffed the gaps, used a blades to make an attempt to blend it like fur, then took some white primer(brush on, so smelly), and here are the results!


Group shot

Eddak up close

Luporian warrior

Were-trooper

the shotty is huge to fit his massive hands, so pretty much as powerful as a SM level shotty like the scout marines use, just bigger. to make it a "ripper-gun" I would have to add a drum feed.

Awesome haul. I really like my own antipode and dog soldier guys.

The funny thing about Infinity, I'm not even sure if that's a boarding shotgun. They have this really awkward thing they do with tags and other larger scale models where the gun is physically 2-3x (or more!) the size of the same thing an infantry would have...but exactly the same stats. When you eject your Iguana TAG pilot and he becomes a heavy infantry with the same gun? Gun is half the size =/

I'm a little jelly of that E'dak P'mera or whatever his name is. One of the few deadzone things I didn't get.

And those Jovian Hammers, gotta love truescale not-ogryns

At least in the Anaconda's defense, that actually is the TAG's gun the pilot is holding. In that case, there is artwork showing that there are attachments that go over the regular Spitfire that scale it up to TAG sizes. I believe that it's actually true for the Iguana as well.

I'm jealous of you guys actually working on your Devil Dogs. I still can't bring myself to work on mine.

So wait, it mentions in the fluff that the giant ass guns they give the tags are just the regular (admittedly oversized) weapons regular soldiers have with a 'TAG hands' friendly resizer? Huh. I guess that makes some kind of sense.

Yep. If you look at the lineart, there's attachments that beef up the weapon and extend the grips and mags. I don't think it's true for all TAGs though. The details of the man-sized HMG are definitely there on the Iguana's gun though.

Huh. Well maybe their design is like... 75% less stupid then. I was thinking the giant combi-rifles on the Geckos were just..silly. I mean, I still don't get why they wouldn't just give the Gecko a man sized HMG or something even bigger instead of a big-hands upgrade kit... but I feel less awkward about the sizing as long as there's SOME reasoning

Unlike the GW IG getting weapons better suited to Power Armored SM hands!

the Jovians have just the 5 heads, I suppose if I got more, I could shave the burns off the one head, not sure what else to do with the others than skin tone changes, maybe greystuff a beard.

Eddak P'Merra was on clearance, since Mantic is about to do a new wave of stuff. I wonder what the newer plague pieces will be like to assemble? My infected need reinforcements!

Shaso, here's the linky to my looted pod thread.

And a spoilered pic of the completed project...


Hope you like the thing. In searching through back posts, i found it was Tantan628 and Viagrus back in late 2011, that got me started on this idea, but due to circumstances i mentioned earlier i didn't actually get working on this till 2014.

Posted on your thread, good stuff!

Wolfy things everywhere suddenly. Nice haul, nice models. So you going for Dalmatian pattern on these?

Mostly grey-black with maybe brown touches here and there

I'm looking forward to seeing the results with wolf troopers.

Looking at real wolf images, the fur varies in texture, coloration blended or abruptly different patches, and tufts of color over darker or lighter colors! this will be interesting indeed!

Patchy, uneven, washes and dry-brushing is your friend.
