FINALLY!

 

LOTR takes a back seat in the Black Gobbo 71.

See a nurgle army, painted LOTR models, stuff on battle of skull pass (a link to a pic, with no info ), some info on the new WHFB rulebook (a link to an article that doesn't actually tell us anything ), how to paint a pirhana and IG vehicle conversions (cool light tank ).

See it all here:

The Pirhana Masterclass is quite good. Kudo's to the U.S. web team on their additions.

The only articles that caught my interest were the IG vehicle and the great airbrushing tutorial. I'll have to follow the instructions from that article when I paint my tau vehicles. I'd love to see more articles on alternative painting methods done like this.

That little IG"tank" is just so cool! I must have one (or 2) In typical GW fashion they make a little converwsion cost a fortune in GW parts, but I can scratch build around that. I wonder if I just took the sentinel cockpit and added wheels or treads to it? Would look kinda like a WW1 French FT-17 tankette.

I would've sworn they had already shown us that IG tankette in a previous article. Nifty little conversion, if a little pricey for what it is. Then again, which GW conversion article isn't?

That nifty little tank is in the last USWD, 319 i think

BG finally takes a turn for the better just when I was giving up hope. That masterclass article was great and gave me a lot of insight.

The piranha tutorial has also already been on the website for a few weeks. Not that there's anything wrong with the article, it just seems like they're rehashing material.

The little tank is cool, but I dont see me spending 40 something dollars to build a little tank. Id rather spend $15 on a cyclops demolition tank and convert it?

Never mind getting opponents to let you use it as a Sentinel! :- /

I've decided just to buy 4 of these for $12 each and convert to sentinel tankettes:

Sweet! The 2 spare Donkey Cannons are a bonus.
