BloodWolves Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Has anyone put Chimera Tracks/ Sides on a Leman Russ Chassis/ Body? Would it work or is the leman russ too high up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HallofStovokor Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Is that to mimic the armor extensions that protect against EFPs? I think that you can cut it in a way that it will be slightly smaller than a leman russ side. Using another leman russ parts would probably work better.

The Titanz0r Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Do you mean using the Chimera tracks instead of the Russ tracks, or full assembling a Russ and then sticking the Chimera tracks on it? The latter would look really odd, I think. The former has been done a number of times. My buddy ran his Russ tanks with the Chimera sides. MrZakalwe on the forum does the same thing with his Russ tanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wassa Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 There are plenty of images searching "Leman Russ Chimera Conversion" on google. I think you kind of have to use the track guards on top of the tracks else it does look a little odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phubar Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 In BloodWolves defence it has to be said that the internet is plenty of chineras with LR turrets buy LR bodues with Chim sides are not present. If i have some time i will post a 3d simulation of this mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wassa Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Yeah they are mainly Chimera Chassis with a turret on, it's a bit fiddly otherwise due to the height differences. People have attempted them though: http://www.cold-moon.com/40k/Miniatures/Mortant7th/AltLR/AltLemanRussP%20%282%29.JPG http://mordian7th.blogspot.com/2009/06/charon-pattern-leman-russ-part-1.html http://mordian7th.blogspot.com/2009/06/charon-pattern-leman-russ-part-2.html http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/36/8624-141218141243.jpeg https://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=113837.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrZakalwe Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 I've been playing around with them. http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/350072-609th-octavian-regiment-charlie-company-slow-grow-project/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodWolves Posted March 7, 2019 Author Share Posted March 7, 2019 This is something I was looking at.. http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/gallery/image/254902-fb-img-1551933223417/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tokugawa Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 The conversion @Bloodwolves posted is quiet good. Slightly lowered turret feels more stable on a lower chasis. Has anyone put Leman Tracks/ Sides on a Chimera Chassis/ Body? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodWolves Posted March 11, 2019 Author Share Posted March 11, 2019 Thanks Tokugawa, I wish I could say I did that. Thats how I feel.. It looks like it makes sense. I know its the 40k Universe and nothing ever makes sense in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
