<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "A Tank A Month For A Year"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/56.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net A Tank A Month For A Year while but having found that Warseer was still going I decided to stick my nose back into Forum Kulchur proppa like.

So anyway with the new Guard Codex I have (of course) started another Guard infantry force, but alongside that I decided that I could justify getting myself a tank company, which is something I've always wanted, so long as I got a tank a month.

The list is pretty simple - a Rogal Dorn for the Company Commander, a Vanquisher for the Commissar, three Vanquishers for the troop commanders, and six standard Leman Russ for the base tanks. 11 Russ and a Dorn.

Now without further ado, here is the first vehicle of Blue Company, Black Battalion, Paradisan CDXX Armoured:


Front view - the business end!


Right view - note company/battalion identifier on the hull front, and tank identifier A1 on the turret side.


Rear view - tank name ANNIHILATION on the rear of the turret stowage boxes, and nicely painted skull-and-laurel.


Left view - same markings as on the right side.


Top view - note the polished golden Aquila to protect the spirit of the tank and the souls of the crew from the enemies of the Imperium.

The camouflage scheme is essentially the late-WW1 buntfarbenanstrich German scheme that was applied to everything from some A7V tanks to gas mask canisters via helmets and machine-gun shields. It was hilariously easy to paint - spray black, then apply blocks of Loren Forest, Mournfang Brown and Balor Brown, leaving black lines between the colours. Overall Nuln Oil wash and then a heavy drybrush of the original colours to highlight.

I tend not to do more than that with tanks because they're so large natural light and shadow tends to give you highlights anyway!
