I've got nothing else done for a couple of days (due to either having a headache or I couldn't be arsed to do anything) so this update will just consist of rendered images from my computer.
First up Dragons Teeth.
I modified the model by raising the skull till it was centred on the arch top.
The revised model on the left, the original version on the right. |
Second up are the Pallets
I felt the tops were still lacking and rather plain. I increased the number of holes to start and then added a treadplate pattern. The treadplate gives them a much better texture and will look far more interesting, especially those which won't have stores on them.
The top plate for the larger pallet. |
Large pallet assembled. |
Top plate for the smaller pallet. |
And the assembled smaller pallet. |
Realised I hadn't really shown the two pallets together, so here are a couple of shots showing how they compare in size.
Hopefully my next update will be on the Grot Tanks. While I haven't done much for two days I did get them undercoated so I should be starting the actual painting process soon.
I really dig those dragon teeth!
ReplyDeleteI really like those pallets - have you thought of converting a copy of them into PSP for airfields and throwing onto the sides of vehicles? *hint*
ReplyDeletePSP?
DeleteThey are too big to go on the sides of vehicles.
This sort of thing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marsden_Matting
DeleteBut with your diamond plate pattern on it for increased traction ;)
You can already get scale model Marsden Matting (I was looking at getting some a while back).
DeleteIf you wanted to scratchbuild some the simplest thing would be to get some 1/35 scale treadplate (which the above parts are based on) and punch holes into it.
Ah, ok. I hadn't found any scale matting for this - I've found 1/35 and 1/48, neither of which work worth a rusty sprocket for this in 40k, sadly.
