WarriorFish Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 Amazing tanks! I had to resist the urge to go out and buy some Medusas for myself! :lol: Oh, with the squadron rules for the new Space Marines we're hearing about I wonder what terror the Guard may be able to unleash in the future? Excellent work commissar these fine war machines will add some much needed fire power to the 711th :D elmo 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmo Posted June 13, 2015 Author Share Posted June 13, 2015 DO NOT RESIST - BUY MEDUSAS..... Do I get my free stuff now FW?? They are a nice model to build plus they come with the bits for the Basilisk and the old style accessories sprue - Track Guards!! What else could you ask for ;) I will paint up the crew when I do the Hydra crew as a job lot to save time. Hydra starts on Monday and will take about a week and a half so vow complete by end of June at the latest. I am torn between Rough Riders or Ogryns after that but because of the amount of conversion/chopping required I do not feel comfortable in being able to finish a squad of either by the end of the ETL but we will see :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scatmandoo Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Damn you eBay .... just "won" another Chimera! More rivets then? You on a penitence crusade or something?? Haha. More seriously though the tanks look awesome as usual. Like the potential on the bike. Have you thought about how to represent the lance? Maybe some sort of frag grenade launcher set up (think ironclad/LR crusader etc.) Could fit with the modern mechanised role? And as for the combined forces parade shoot, how do you 'Lose' a Baneblade? ???? elmo 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vel'Cona Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Agreed, the Wyvern crew really pops in that scheme! I wish I had the patience to do a spotted camo pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmo Posted June 18, 2015 Author Share Posted June 18, 2015 (edited) Thanks guys... Next update Tracks tomorrow/Monday then decals and weathering - should be all done by the end of next week Edited June 18, 2015 by elmo WarriorFish 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Great details, they'll be done in no time ;) elmo 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vel'Cona Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Nice, the targeting screen is really cool, too. I pondered having mine displaying a Pac-Man layout, but couldn't be bothered to actually paint it up . . . elmo 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmo Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 I managed to get a chimera hull and I will be adding that to a Wyvern upper hull I acquired a few months ago so that will bring me up to 3. The plan is progressing. Armour cloning :) Still another 7 russes too. Need more paint! WarriorFish 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmo Posted July 3, 2015 Author Share Posted July 3, 2015 My vow is now complete and owing to time constraints I don't feel safe with a new vow so I will be calling it a day with just one but it was a big one ;) I will be continuing to paint more Guard and currently have 3 Ogryns about to get undercoated so there will be more progress... Without further ado here is the last vehicle (Hydra/Wyvern) from my vow Plus I added the crew to the 3 Medusas And did not waste the Baneblade commander And after all that work I just had to get another Army on Parade photo... As always - stay tuned for more progress. walter h, varchilde and WarriorFish 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Seeing so many Guard models is a beautiful sight! Well done on yet another great vow, a solid contribution to the war effort :D The extra details on the shells and crew gives the artillery some real character, your opponents may find it hard to hate them as they obliterate his forces ;) Once the remaining models are complete looks to me like you still need some more heavy armour to round the force off... :P elmo 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
