Gideus Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I have wanted a thunderhawk since Forgeworld first came out with them years back, but cannot really justify the expense. So I decided to scratch build my own. Its got the correct dimensions and size, and most of the proper detailing. Its not meant to be a phenomenally detailed super exact duplicate like some others I have seen, but a unit I can use for my groups apocalypse games. http://i303.photobucket.com/albums/nn147/Gideus/094.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tangamarine Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Nice Nice Nice Nice Nice, :tu: I'm about to start on my own since I recently aquired some good plans. Would you say i's better to build in card or other materials Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gideus Posted February 4, 2011 Author Share Posted February 4, 2011 I used different thicknesses of plasticard (styrene sheeting) and it worked wonderfully. I use it for all my scratch builds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hushrong Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Nice build. Â I am taking a guess it is for Iron Warriors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gideus Posted February 4, 2011 Author Share Posted February 4, 2011 Yes, I have a rather large Iron Warrior army. I will post a pic of the front iconography when I get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shortsonfire79 Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Awesome build man. Thats one hell of a project, and you're not one of those people who 'start' a project, and let the thread die. You've already finished!! And thanks for the templates Damion :huh: Should be useful ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calgar101 Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I really really like that! I'd try and build one but it would end up looking worse than a Stormraven. Kudos to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
