And lastly their ride when Telyportas don't work

It is damp today so no spraying,I decided to bang out a brutal looking tactical.

Where the Legion Armor kits shine is with the arms.

I used to have to do a ton of work to get a Marine to fire the bolter from the shoulder.

I finished the night off repairing the T-Hawk build.

There were a few gaps that needed filling with shims.

I added two small strips near the cockpit,I then heated with hairdryer to conform to the hull and then sanded thin.

I filled some gaps by shimming them with thin styrene strip

I also broke the bit on the right fuselage where the wing goes,so I replaced that.

Tomarrow I replace both grates with real mesh.

The other side I will remove the grate detail with a #17 exacto blade from the undamaged side and rebuild both.

I am also gonna pick up fresh squadron putty to help blend the shims

I just about have the fuselage prepped, I just need to reattach 50 rivets.

I used Squadron White to go over the shims and then used a scribing tool to fix any panel lines.

I actually had that topknot so I used it,then I gave the old topknot to the co-pilot after I trimmed it down a little.

I took are of the Aquila changing it to a single headed eagle

Tomorrow I'll add the Turbo-Laser and start working on the landing gears.

I also received reinforcements from Lenton ;)

I repaired the damaged wing vent,pretty close

Master of the Forge w/ Thunderhammer,master-crafted bolter and Conversion Beamer.

Champion and Comm trooper

The Eagle pack was too much, I made one with Skulls instead

With the face complete

http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/ebce872c90fb176a598aaab4592cd9ff.jpg

So I start the build to the Spartan

http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/65815b1ac4fe649d436b323d1cef8a31.jpg

It has an interior that you can see that is much easier to paint at this stage and will be protected by the model once the build is complete.

More work on the T-hawk.

The fuselage needs to be cut out a bit for the wing to fit flush

http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/f7862fc793ffbae0b67fdaebfe1a1ae2.jpg

I used a hacksaw to cut it out

http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/9c72baa7b53422788c65b709f4b3106d.jpg

I added thin styrene to the wing edge to fix oversanding on my part

http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/886c2b52b4e996c0fe6f59f07cd5c540.jpg

I then I used thin rod to reattach the rivets,sanding them down

I finished off Little Horus complete with basing.Since the model just has the sword,I added a Bolter and Combat Shield that he is described as using onto the base.

I needed a little break from Marines so I scratchbuilt this Specimen Tube for my Mortalis set.

Now the Million dollar question,what do I put in it?

Those look great!

 

For the specimen tube you could get a toy dino or barnyard animal that fits inside, and then add greenstuff tentacles or something to make it into a crazy looking xeno. :o

 

On a side note, did I see you said you had to make 50 rivets? Are you doing those by slicing a plastic stick, and then sanding them down? If so, I have an idea that could possibly save you time if you need to do something like that in the future.

 

At the craft store, one can find iron-on "stud" designs, usually intended for going on pockets/t-shirts/etc (usually for girls, so they'll be in shapes like hearts and stars and similar things). If you can find one that has the right size "studs," they make great rivets for models! They're even sticky, so if you need to check size/location before final gluing, it's easy to do.

Good to know thanks

Here is the last tactical I needed for the extended tac squad to make 19 Bolter Brothers and Sgt
