hendrik Posted September 18, 2014 Author Share Posted September 18, 2014 long time no post! the macharius is currently scratched due to a lack of interest (the damn thing just takes too long to build!) However, i've created a new vanquisher turret for my paskuisher since after playing more WOT recently i'm feeling all 40k barrels,while of a very big calibre, are always rather short! Do you think the barrel is big enough? ;) http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb281/amorfatipictures/DSC_8040_zpscae71173.jpg http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb281/amorfatipictures/DSC_8041_zpsd6fbbbf0.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/277452-cadian-812th/page/9/#findComment-3812226 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 A gun that big is sure to never tire. :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/277452-cadian-812th/page/9/#findComment-3812233 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeGrunt Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Definitely beats the somewhat underwhelming GW Vanquisher. It's an interesting style, less of a slim, precise weapon than the Ryza Vanquisher, but a more brutal design. Keep up the good work!

+DAN+ Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Ah cunning plan Hendrik.....when it runs out of ammo,just poke them with the barrel. Really good paint scheme you have going on there mate.

hendrik Posted September 18, 2014 Author Share Posted September 18, 2014 PIP, searchlight needs to be done and more washes/weathering, but i like how brutal he already looks! http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb281/amorfatipictures/DSC_8042_zps1b59bc3e.jpg http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb281/amorfatipictures/DSC_8043_zpsa0cc066e.jpg http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb281/amorfatipictures/DSC_8044_zpsd31ad248.jpg http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb281/amorfatipictures/DSC_8045_zpsa2b5986d.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/277452-cadian-812th/page/9/#findComment-3812479 Share on other sites More sharing options...

hendrik Posted September 19, 2014 Author Share Posted September 19, 2014 i couldn't help it... my normal vanquishers just seemed so puny and weak....

CoffeeGrunt Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I would love to field a squadron of those. It'd kill the crap out of any tank it saw out of Cover, but man it'd be a really niche squadron!  Nice barrel work, the Emperor is pleased with your Big Guns!

WarriorFish Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Ok, now I can definitely see them plinking off super heavies from afar.

hendrik Posted September 19, 2014 Author Share Posted September 19, 2014 it's a shame the vanquisher is such a niche unit. forgeworld solved that somewhat by giving the tank command vanquishers upgradable shells. if only GW had though of including such an option!

CoffeeGrunt Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 "You brought a Land Raider? That's cute..." Â Man those look awesome all squadroned up. Here's to a couple of shots of them on the playing field as such if you ever get the chance to do it. Truly a killing field no armour would dare enter! You've made me want to get a second Ryza Vanquisher after this. The GW one leaves me feeling hollow inside, and my plasticard-fu is weak. Â Excellent work Guardsmen, be sure to show us any more of His glorious armour you choose to build!

hendrik Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 This plasticard fu was simply cutting the tubes to size and inserting them into eachother. The end of the barrel is a bit of green stuff turned between my fingers and the coaxial heavy stubbers are heavy stubbers inserted in a cut up chimera heavy bolter turret plate. If you can cut your models out of the sprues they come from you can do this conversion;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/277452-cadian-812th/page/9/#findComment-3817858 Share on other sites More sharing options...

hendrik Posted October 10, 2014 Author Share Posted October 10, 2014 all this talk about zombies made me want to convert another tank, however i lacked any spare russes. What i did have was a tank destroyer that i had never fielded before, and most likely wouldn't field anytime soon given i now already have 3 kickass vanquishers. so off went the laser destroyer cannon, and on came the turret! http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb281/amorfatipictures/20141010_170805_zpsmahbgisl.jpg http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb281/amorfatipictures/20141010_170720_zpsjvcf9hn0.jpg http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb281/amorfatipictures/20141010_170737_zps75b8rm9a.jpg  i figure i'll use this one as either a standard russ, or a demolisher Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/277452-cadian-812th/page/9/#findComment-3830201 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is the turret from? lol, it's the standard turret with 2 strips of plasticard glued and pinned on it! the barrel is simply some plasticard tubing with some greenstuff on it!

hendrik Posted November 22, 2014 Author Share Posted November 22, 2014 it's been a while since i've made any updates on my cadian 812th!  the first is rather simple, 100 pts of heavy mortars http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb281/amorfatipictures/20141122_190359_zps1r32rivs.jpg the second one as well, an earthshaker platform instead of earthshaker carriage, why? because sometimes my opponent managed to only target the crew of my carriages,+ i was bored and wanted to make an 88' like conversion http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb281/amorfatipictures/20141122_190413_zpsrq1xnvz1.jpg  last but not least, some macharius bassed barrel system for my superheavy. don't even know which superheavy this can represent, but i like the looks of it! note that i can still turn this one in a shadowsword,banesword, stormblade, banehammer, doomhammer and stormsword. http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb281/amorfatipictures/20141122_190435_zpsb1bcvgew.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/277452-cadian-812th/page/9/#findComment-3868421 Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarriorFish Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 You've been busy! I always like mortars but the earthshaker platform is really good, the netting is a great touch.

CoffeeGrunt Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Liking the Earthshaker, and that custom barrel job on the Baneblade looks excellent, though I'm also unsure which it would represent!
