appiah4 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 I have, and never will see the appeal of painting Rhino interior. It looks amazing BH but I just don't see the appeal for something you'll never see. If I get a mastodon though, I think I'd have to do that.... If you don't glue the hatch shut you actually do see it.. It looks pretty cool especially for displaying your army, methinks.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blindhamster Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Yeah I open the hatches when I disembark :D Xenith 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dont-Be-Haten Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Visually it looks appealing, but I look at how small the interior is compared to the scale of the marine and it just frustrates me. Like 10 toys soldiers can really fit in that. Its like when I don't see the inside its fine, but when I see the inside my imagination shuts down. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaplain Gunzhard Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 (edited) Sadly this wasn't for my ETL vow... but my (brand new) local GW store had a little painting thing so I through together this guy. The snap-fit marines are just awful to paint but it's done. ACK sorry those photos were huge and hideous haha... I'll update later. It was a single Blood Drinkers marine. How do I do the spoiler boxes? Edited May 26, 2016 by Chaplain Gunzhard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I paint the inside of transports but of late I've been only doing the basics rather than going to town. Beyond the first time I ever use a new model and my 40K mates inspect it... naturally no-one ever looks again :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedemptionNL Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 I only painted the interior of a Land Raider, but at least that's visible because of led lighting that activates when you open the front ramp. All other vehicles I just glue shut - too much effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont-Be-Haten Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 (edited) Once I attempted to customize the inside of a rhino by setting a few marines inside to represent getting ready to breach an objective, only about 2-3 marines fit in there and i was really wanting to have the drop hatch open down to marines looking to be charging out. You can do it with a land raider and it looks amazing. Edited May 26, 2016 by Dont-Be-Haten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evildrcheese Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Yeah I used to paint the insides of vehicles but have given up on that habit, too much effort for something you hardly ever see. Even when you show people the response is generally 'oh cool you painted the inside'...and that was it. EDC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
