Chefzilla Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I got my Sentinel finished but I forgot one very important thing. The very first thing I painted was the pilot. I just forgot to put him in the cockpit before I finished the up armored open top. Come to find out he doesn't fit in the opening. Wap, wap, waaaaa!

Ulrik_Ironfist Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Now that you've up, go back and do it right this time! (How many times have we heard that... NCO's are beautiful Human Beings aren't they...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chefzilla Posted March 16, 2015 Author Share Posted March 16, 2015 Ulrik, I've never known a human NCO and that includes me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulrik_Ironfist Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Let me correct that statement, We haven't met any good NCO's that were human... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uprising Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Why not put the pilot/spare guardsmen on the base with a gasoline jug? Be like he is refilling the walker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Sounds like the perfect excuse to use him in a new Sentinel model... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Sounds like the perfect excuse to use him in a new Sentinel model... This. You'll be wanting 2-3 anyway, right? Then perhaps you could paint the second pilot in bits and assemble him inside the cockpit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
march10k Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Ulrik, I've never known a human NCO and that includes me. Actually, some of the best people on the planet are SSGs...can't say the same about the company grade officers who were my peers (now I'm buried in the pentagon with no contact with "real" soldiers, or daylight, for that matter). Now, substitute "CSMs" for "NCOs," and I'd agree..."haircuts and police call" is their MOS, and it automatically qualifies them as oxygen thieves!

Chefzilla Posted March 18, 2015 Author Share Posted March 18, 2015 Well they are CSM's. Sam Elliot in We Were Soldiers being a fine example. March, if you don't mind me asking. What's your MOS and thank you for your service. Even if it is in the puzzle palace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
march10k Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 ROFL...I was an armor/cav officer (3/7 cav in OIF1)...now I'm a foreign area officer...that's a regional expert...I could be an LNO to a foreign military (in my region), an intel analyst at DIA working on crap in my region (my current job), the army dude in an embassy in my region, the smart guy on a country in my region (or several countries, not every slot gets filled so guys have to do more than one) at some bigwig HQ like EUCOM or ARCENT...it's 50lb brain stuff...that keeps my ass out of being the dipstick S3 of some BS infantry battalion walking around the major cities of azzkrakistan with a "please throw a grenade off a rooftop" sign on my back...

Ulrik_Ironfist Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Sorry I derailed the thread. It was an armored sentinel correct? It's all enclosed so you can't see the pilot right? Did you use superglue or plastic glue when you put it together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
march10k Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I'm guessing not armored, that's a $$$ add-on kit, and most people don't care if you run the scout sentinel model as an armored sentinel as long as you're transparent about it. So it's almost certainly more an issue of building a ship in a bottle...the parts individually fit between the bars, but it takes special talent to assemble the pilot inside the completed cockpit!

FashaTheDog Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 If you are a proper Guard player you should be able to order/yell at the model until it does what you demand of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know how much I paid for the metal parts for my three steel legion armored sentinels with lascannons?!? If it makes you feel any better, not all of the Sentinel variants come out one box. The Drop Sentinel with heavy bolter and mulit-melta options is a second kit (the two I have came with the old sprue), and the Rocket Sentinel is a third kit. Sadly the Power Lifter is no longer up on the site, or if it is, it is not under the AM section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
