Shortsonfire79 Posted July 11, 2009 Author Share Posted July 11, 2009 Aye. =-D Now that I know what I'm doing, I can churn this stuff out quick n' easy. Thing o' beauty. http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/ss63/Shortsonfire82/IMG_1954.jpg http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/ss63/Shortsonfire82/IMG_1953.jpg I don't understand why its out of focus, but its okay...

Shortsonfire79 Posted July 13, 2009 Author Share Posted July 13, 2009 So I finally decided to glue the top plate onto my LRE!! yaayyy...The way I had to do it though, that was a pain. I loaded as much plastic glue onto the lattice work super structure that I could. Then I put the plate on, and put lots of pressure on it. The sides were still able to be pulled up, so I lined it up as best I could and glued it in small segments. I think it worked up pretty well. Its attached very well, and VERY sturdy! Problem number two...LOTS of gaps around the entire thing. Oh boy! Green stuffing for me! So I rolled a large glob of green stuff, and worked in small sections around the chassis. I pre-smoothed it by taking my knife-like tool, and dragging it across the clumped green stuff, a new technique I discovered just now, which is FANTASTIC! I'll sand it all down after it all dries. http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/ss63/Shortsonfire82/IMG_1960.jpg http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/ss63/Shortsonfire82/IMG_1961.jpg http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/ss63/Shortsonfire82/IMG_1962.jpg Then I get to do MORE detailing tonight! Its pretty early, 11, so expect another update. Or an edit or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortsonfire79 Posted July 13, 2009 Author Share Posted July 13, 2009 Heres the update. I added the track cover on the outer tracks, and I think it came out quite nicely. I didn't want to do the arches like the <span style="font-style:italic;">Maximus</span> has, because thats not very Dark Angely at all. So I went with some sort of sword design, which I thought was quite genius. The hilt will be detail. http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/ss63/Shortsonfire82/IMG_1969.jpg Unfortunately, the wings wouldn't fit on the track guard, so I just had to do one wing, which is okay I guess. http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/ss63/Shortsonfire82/IMG_1965.jpg http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/ss63/Shortsonfire82/IMG_1967.jpg None of the icons have been glued on yet.

Shortsonfire79 Posted July 14, 2009 Author Share Posted July 14, 2009 Thanks Firenze! So the LRE is almost done. http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/ss63/Shortsonfire82/IMG_1990.jpg I had to make the Flamestorm cannon front out of plasticard, because the detail to not detail was bad. (on the tubing) http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/ss63/Shortsonfire82/IMG_1989.jpg Does anyone have an idea of what I could do for the border on the top, coming from the front? So far, I've drawn out, in sharpie, that its going to go straight back, but I don't know where to go from there. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aekold Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I have been following the LRE for quite some time and I must say that it looks great. I really love the sword emblem idea, do you mind if I steal it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortsonfire79 Posted July 14, 2009 Author Share Posted July 14, 2009 Sure go ahead! X-D The tanks not done yet, so you might be a bit disappointed, but the sword emblem, go ahead! It just popped into my head, so consider this being popped into your head too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firenze Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I know how much of a B**** plasticard is. I built a titan with the stuff and it is a git. WE SHALL PREVAIL! Nice cannons! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sgtNACHO Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 El Grande Raider del Muerte! :) Very Nice Shorts! May I recommend putting a twinlinked plasma gun on top of your Promethium Cannons o' Doom? Just because ;) I dunno It's hard to crit something so awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beornling 3.1415 Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 the main problem with combining a Land Raider with a Tardis. 1. Inquisition will hate a vehicle that is bigger on the inside. 2. Xenos that repeatably shout EXTERMINUS will plauge your forces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shortsonfire79 Posted July 30, 2009 Author Share Posted July 30, 2009 im not diggin the whirlwind turret on there, doesn't fit imho Dogma wanted to put it there like the Helios LR. I guess the design, as planned, kinda grew on me. I'm having enough trouble detailing the top, do you have any ideas? =-D please? (And not a rhino, I don't want to put one of those on there.)

Shortsonfire79 Posted August 10, 2009 Author Share Posted August 10, 2009 So I did a tad of work on the LRE the other day, and its not that great, but it is a start on the top detail. I took the normal LR piece that I was able to save, and I added an extension so it went all the way across the top-er part. http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/ss63/Shortsonfire82/IMG_2450.jpg I also think I finished the border part, I'm not sure if I missed any parts yet. And I did both of the track guard-details. http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/ss63/Shortsonfire82/IMG_2451.jpg Any thoughts on the top detail part?

Polaris Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 I think another "level" should be added personally. What ever you decide to do I am sure it will be fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgtNACHO Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Perhaps make the top like a bunker? Have castle-like ramparts with "diamond plated" floor and have some modeled marines shooting from it? THat'd be one seriously hard Strongpoint in Planet Strike to crack! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortsonfire79 Posted August 16, 2009 Author Share Posted August 16, 2009 I think another "level" should be added personally. What ever you decide to do I am sure it will be fantastic! Like the Rhino idea? I wasn't too fond of that, because the rhino chassis is much too narrow for the top of the LR. Matched to a normal LR, its quite small, and this thing is wider than that. Perhaps make the top like a bunker? Have castle-like ramparts with "diamond plated" floor and have some modeled marines shooting from it? THat'd be one seriously hard Strongpoint in Planet Strike to crack! So also a second 'level' then. I didn't detail this first one (yeah, thats right, I'll be starting number 2 quite shortly), and if I detailed just the 'inner top level' it'd be a tad weird. I haven't read Planet Strike yet, and probably won't for a while. I figure Planet Strike is supposed to coincide with Apocalypse right? ...I guess that means I need to read that one when I start playing. Nuts. Thanks for the ideas guys. =-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guerilla tactix Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 i like the idea of like 1 or 2 levels itll look sorta like a moving command like an aawesome damocles my 2 cents Tactix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
