philsminions Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Hey brothers. I'm trying to get my speeders together for my Templars army. I'm leaning more towards two Tiffys and one Tornado. Unfortunately, the packs I got did not come with any HFs so I will have to purchase one after market. The actual Tornado HFs are ridiculously expensive ($10 for one!). I was wondering how big the IG Sentinel HF is in relation to the speeder. Would it look abnormally huge? I also thought about a Dred CCW undermount flamer, but it looks a bit small. It will be magnetized so I can interchange it with the autocannon if I choose. Thoughts/Suggestions? Thanks!

g-unit Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 The Sentinel one is about the right size but as it's designed to fit to the side of the Sentinel it's missing all detail on one side so would need some GS work to get that side looking right Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/222543-land-speeder-tornado-heavy-flamer/#findComment-2660597 Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmk17 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 If the bit is not expensive, the standard Terminator box has a Heavy Flamer that is about the right size.

philsminions Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 Thanks guys. Looking closer at the sentinel flamer, I'm wondering if I could attach the promethium tanks to the unfinished side of the flamer? I've never actually held one in my hand, so I have no idea what it might actually look like.

Dave the Twisted Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 My Speeder boasts a HF taken from the Dreadnought sprue. Cut the wire down in the back a bit and it fits right under the craft's nose quite nicely. As for the issue of the prometheum tanks, I'd just write it off as being carried within the speeder's hull somewhere, another layer of armor keeping it away from snipers who get funny ideas It looks very nice scale-wise and it was pretty painless to put on for the most part. And if you plan on getting a Dread and not using the flamer, the bit's there for you to use Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/222543-land-speeder-tornado-heavy-flamer/#findComment-2661588 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anvil_of_War Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Thanks guys. Looking closer at the sentinel flamer, I'm wondering if I could attach the promethium tanks to the unfinished side of the flamer Yes, you could do that easily, the tanks would cover up most of the "void" on the other side of the flamer, perhaps even adding a thin strip of plasticard as well. This is exactly what I'm planning too do with my own speeders.

XeroAikon Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 The heavy flamer in this post was done by chopping the bushiness end off of a heavy flamer and putting it on a heavy bolter stock.
