Focused Dark Angels Land Raider Pilot




Magnolia, TX

Drop dead sexy APC. The battlefield support staff; medic, sniper, and comms team look both realistic and futuristic without the use of handwavium!

Captain Killhammer McFighterson stared down at the surface of Earth from his high vantage point on the bridge of Starship Facemelter. Something ominous was looming on the surface. He could see a great shadow looming just underneath the waters of the Gulf of Mexico, slowly spreading northward. "That can't be good..." he muttered to himself while rubbing the super manly stubble on his chin with one hand. "But... on the other hand..." he looked at his shiny new bionic murder-arm. "This could be the perfect chance for that promotion." A perfect roundhouse kick slammed the ship's throttle into full gear. Soon orange jets of superheated plasma were visible from the space-windshield as Facemelter reentered the atmosphere at breakneck speed.

Those are all sexy vehicles including the Dreamforge one. You should add in a stock Taurox though to illustrate the difference between what to do and what NOT to do.

Thank you! I own 6 Bricks, now I have an idea of the size as the Brick is comparable to Chimera APC from WD/IG. Oh and all the details it has, Lovely! I do so much want Hanomags now!

No problem Shade, I have the bricks, chimeras and Old Crow APCs, the one that looks like it is from Aliens would be a HUGE APC, and carry more troops so I might use it as a 20 riflemen, or a 10man and commander squad carrier if I got that monster but priority now is the Hanomags

Military old school reddish primer aka Battle Pink under the camo colors is a nice touch! Blue glow shows that is NOT a combustion engine.

Looks very menacing! Any plans for the front "grill"? Still not sure what would make sense to put there. A winch would probably look very good, if there was an appropriate bit to represent it. All these large flat areas will definitely benefit from an airbrush, too.

Using Inks and Washes





Duxford, Cambs, UK

We neither. As it's NOT an internal combustion engine, there is no need for things like a radiator in front of it - and therefore extra armour makes more sense to me.

And it's a nice area for things like unit insignia, etc.

Really loving Dwartist's build and paint job, can't wait to get my hands on the 3 of these that I ordered.

"Ask ten different scientists about the environment, population control, genetics, and you'll get ten different answers, but there's one thing every scientist on the planet agrees on.

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."

Yeah, as much as dwartist is doing an awesome job, it's not making the wait any easier.

In random news though, this did get me to order some FoW stuff; specifically Panzergrenadiers with SdKfz 251/1D half tracks. Maybe by the time these show up I'll be able to do a decent facsimile of German ambush camouflage.

Thought I'd just go back and check what extras I pledged for as I can't remember that far back, and now I'm sad that I only ordered 1 APC Thought it was more.

So on the whole grill debate, I was standing infront of a Hanomag last weekend. It is a smooth, single piece of steel. Thats it. I'm cool with the front of the APC, just add something if you want.

Last thing I would want is an AT round punching through the grill into that wicked looking power plant.

Any chance of a preview on the Widows?

@dr , last of Marc's posts (about a month ago) mentioned they weren't evening the tooling phase. Still waiting for him to pop in and say q4 is looking good.

Last post was on april3, last post about model production was march24. I've seen him post in other kickstarters, kind of disappointed we haven't gotten anything new preview wise except through the painters.

Matt, For the people with the grill issue, maybe bring a sprue out to bling up the APC, spinning hub caps, Horns, click on fake grill, 1000 watt sound system etcetera, or more war related boring stuff
