knife&fork Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 AC LC sponson are the best predators. Nice work, what did you do with their hindquarters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlandMoonGuy Posted March 14, 2011 Author Share Posted March 14, 2011 In the words of another poster, I shoehorned a baneblade engine into the Rhino chasis to help illustrate the over-charged engines. Like so: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v699/OwlandMoonGuy/Angels%20Sanguine/02-PredNo1-Rear.jpg Cheers, -OMG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d503 Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 how does the fast predator play with an autocannon/lascannons setup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesI Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 how does the fast predator play with an autocannon/lascannons setup? Pretty well. It can move 6 and fire everything. The auto/las pred is probably the best pred in the codex (after the Baal depending on need) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhx711 Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Even though the the tile stated "without Danny Glover" I was still expecting some Ruben Blades love :cuss As always great job. Love the engine conversion. Be nice to see a GW/FW produced bit similar to that without having to buy the baneblade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captain Angel Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 personally i prefer the twin linked las over the auto cannon. you have a better chance of hitting and you have three strength 9 instead of 2 strength 9 and 2 strength 7 shots, i find that better but that is only my $0.02.

Tabgoi Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 This is somehow both disappointing and awsome. The great models I think are winning out over the title. Great job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit too costly for my taste. I'd rather spend those points on upgrading a razorback, help spread things out a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OwlandMoonGuy Posted March 14, 2011 Author Share Posted March 14, 2011 As always great job. Love the engine conversion. Be nice to see a GW/FW produced bit similar to that without having to buy the baneblade. When you buy the forgeworld upgrade kits for the Baneblade you get a much cooler rear panel bit with much larger exhausts. So thankfully in my case, these were leftovers. Never pitch leftover model bits. personally i prefer the twin linked las over the auto cannon. The classic Pred Destructor vs. Annihilator variants. BA are already hard pressed for points in many areas. The twin-las turret is an expensive choice for what amounts to be one extra LC. I find the autocannon has it uses, especially for taking out squadrons of lighter vehicles. This is somehow both disappointing and awsome. You really wanted Danny Glover? I’ll see what I can do for next time. Cheers gents, -OMG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vilicate Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 But I liked Predator 2 more than the first one...the urban environment was much cooler. Plus, it's like the only action movie Danny Glover was ever in by himself. Poor guy. But getting back to the model at hand, it is, as is typical with you OwlandMoonGuy, awesome. I really like the Baneblade bits added to make the engine look more ornate. It's something every Blood Angel (and successors!) should aspire too. Pimp my pred!

The Crimson Cartel Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 My favorite part is the awesome freehanded chapter badge on the front of the 1st Pred pic. Pure win as usual OMG -CC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inquisitor_Lensoven Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 absolutely beautiful. for some reason i've never had a marine vehicle that fit together....my guard vehicles never gave me any problems, just the marine ones... did you have problems with every thing fitting together?

OwlandMoonGuy Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 My favorite part is the awesome freehanded chapter badge on the front of the 1st Pred pic. I always feel obligated to admit that the chapter badge wasn’t freehand – it was a custom decal. The same one I used on my Baal’s dozer blade below. But thanks all the same. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v699/OwlandMoonGuy/Angels%20Sanguine/00-Baal-Front.jpg did you have problems with every thing fitting together? I’ve gotten so use to GW models not fitting together right I don’t really think about it any more. On a side note, I was shocked at how the Drop Pod kit came together. It was nothing short of a struggle to get everything to line up! I figured with all the new CAD designed model kits that this would be a thing of the past. Oh well. The basic box of the Rhino hull never quite comes together evenly. I’ve gotten to the point where I don’t glue everything down until I can get the model to dry fit together. This may require some filing down of the rough spots & green stuff to fill in the gaps. So before I go off any more I’ll just give you the short answer – yes. I haven’t been able to take any more pics- too much actual modeling getting in the way. I’ll have more to post here in a bit. Cheers, -OMG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
