foamy248 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Oh, have you? What thicknesses? And are there any specific tools you use while dealing with the plasticard?

NightHunters Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 DSS7: Soon brother soon! foamy248: Yeah, I know, ridiculous right, but I generally use 0,5mm, 1.0 and 1.5mm Regarding the tools, I keep it pretty simple: sockwithaticket: Totes. So have started on the snout for the "Spartan". Fell it may be a little too long.... Cheers all!

Biohazard Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Armours looking awesome buddy, I wouldn't say the snout was too long either.

deathspectersgt7 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Looks good to me. Better than the resin thing from fw . Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/220620-night-hunters-wip-pic-heavy/page/39/#findComment-4708981 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Traitor Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Looking great so far, though I would maby make the assault ramp more inclined forward to avoid the box form as much as possible, it now seems too perpendicular to the floor.

NightHunters Posted April 13, 2017 Author Share Posted April 13, 2017 Afternoon all Bio: Fingers crossed buddy! DSS7: Thanks brother!, to be fair the forgeworld number is a handsome looking beast, just can't afford one! The Traitor: Yup, agreed, have changed that a little... SO that is where we are at for the moment. Have also played with the top armour on the snout, converted up the assault cannons up and the targeter is in. So, now to cut out the rest of the armour plates, dry fit it all, greenstuff and fill the gaps, lots of sanding, some more sanding and then of course the interior still needs doing.... Cheers all!

The Traitor Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Well it is looking great right now, so can't imagine how awesome it will be when finished! Seriously speaking, the plasticard work on this thing is seamless.

NightHunters Posted April 17, 2017 Author Share Posted April 17, 2017 Afternoon all! The Traitor: Thanks chap, fingers crossed she will look the part! and if you wan to see seamless plasticard work have a look at Blackadders stuff, mine is rather more, shall we say agricultural! Biohazard; Cheers fella, still need to work out the sponson mounts which is not as easy as hoped! Vairocanum: And thanks to you too mate, plates are done, the interior will need some work.... Bjorn Firewalker: Hopefully an update later on. Cheers all!

NightHunters Posted April 18, 2017 Author Share Posted April 18, 2017 Evening all! Biohazard: Cheers for that fella, it is said that faith can move mountains, i wouldn't know about that, but I have the sponson mounts sorted! Clearly lots to do to tidy them up, think i am going to drop the scanner into the top of the sponson ring, looks a but weird that far up! Also a quick shot of all the sub assemblies, won't be glueing it all together until the interior is finished and painted up! That is all for this evening! Cheers all!

Bjorn Firewalker Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 The lascannons' generators and the flamestorm cannons' fuel tanks will undoubtedly reduce the Land Raider's transport capacity to six models, while increasing its points value to 300 (to account for the flamestorm cannons: 25 pts each) or 320 (if you retain a hull-mounted twin-linked assault cannon). But many Techmarines will undoubtedly say, "Worth it," regarding the prices paid for such firepower.

Mechanist Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 The lascannons' generators and the flamestorm cannons' fuel tanks will undoubtedly reduce the Land Raider's transport capacity to six models, while increasing its points value to 300 (to account for the flamestorm cannons: 25 pts each) or 320 (if you retain a hull-mounted twin-linked assault cannon). But many Techmarines will undoubtedly say, "Worth it," regarding the prices paid for such firepower. the spartan has an extended wheelbase and already comes with the extra las cannons as standard with it's extra transport capacity on the data sheet. If changing a normal raider over to a crusader free up 5 spaces dropping 4 lascannons should be enough for the flame storm fuel tanks. That beast looks amazing and the combination gun is a brutal death machine.

NightHunters Posted April 20, 2017 Author Share Posted April 20, 2017 Evening all! Bjorn Firewalker: When in doubt, gun-up brother, thankfully my marines don't have terribly close ties with Mars! Vairocanum: Nor can I, but a long way to go yet! Bio: cheers mate! Mechanist: Basically my exact thought process, and thanks man! And re the sponsons, I see it as the ultimate all round armament. The Traitor: I honestly could not work out why I didn't like it, until redneckboss pointed it out. redneckboss: Thanks man, and Wall-E is exactly why i had to go for the lower targeters! So where are we now? Metal grating down in the snout: And working on hatch placements: Not convinced yet but have some parts coming that will help with the final locations, any ideas welcome though! And honestly, the low targeters really do look better no? Cheers all!

rednekkboss Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 What a beasty! Lovely! Can't wait to see it painted. You might not have liked the targeters, but I have to tell you it inspired me to make a little something for my Chaos guard army. Think Wall-E Killbot. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/220620-night-hunters-wip-pic-heavy/page/39/#findComment-4715620 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vairocanum Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Looking great! Are you going to add a tank commander or other type of marine in the hatches? And yes the lower targeters do look better .
