501st Death Korps of Krieg WIP - Page 3 - 40K Terra

Baron von Lexus · 12-19-2007

hmm not really sure as I havent done much with real big vehicles but you could try like 1/35Abrams, Leopard, Tiger or King Tiger. But dont hold me to it. Hope this helps.

12-31-07 Update:
Haven't worked much more on painting the Death Korps but the 'Isenblut' tanks are coming together I have 2 Leman Russes Built (1 Vanquisher, 1 Demolisher) my Baneblade and 1 Macharius. I'm working on a Chimera and the other Macharius right now and still waiting for the rest of my FW order to show up.

Other good news: I got my own digital camera for christmas so look for more picture updates more frequently now that I have my own.

Have a great New Year all, and I'll be back home in 2 days.

Awesome. I can't wait to see it.

lord marcus · 01-02-2008

and the tension mounts. i can see it now, hairy coiled like s spring and his face glued to the clomputer screen waiting, just waiting.

Baron von Lexus · 01-02-2008

Allright guys sorry for the mild delay but the track are being a real pain and i still have to trim down the other railing but its pretty much done.

I give you the long awaited Super-Heavy Self Propelled Seige Mortar (95% Built):

Dragoon King · 01-02-2008

*jaw drops to floor* Bravo! Simply amazing! Holy cow, that's a mortar! I LOVE it man! +rep for you! That thing is intimidating!!!

Icarus Athrasuriel · 01-03-2008

Excuse me, but HOLY ****!

How freaking big is that thing?! Definitely going to be watching this WIP in future. There shall be much +rep for you when you complete painting it.

Wakim · 01-03-2008

You know that at this point all that`s left is figuring out a way to make it shoot small plastic balls or give it a locomotary system

or both

EDIT

For better pics use MORE LIGHT so the exposure time goes down so the movement of your hand won`t be noticeble at all

That or MACRO, activate macro

and take pics from a palm`s lenght or some such

Macro is usually represented as a flower on most camera.

Dragoon King · 01-03-2008

Hey Baron, 80cm Kanone in Eisenbahnlafette! That should be your next project. I take it this little gem was based on the 60cm Gerat 040 "Karl"?

Mart007 · 01-03-2008

OMG, OMG, OMG!

How did i miss all this. I will read through this thread in detail!

Captain Slow · 01-03-2008

Okay
are you sure the gun on that thing is big enough!!

that, and as for a name, why not call it 'Big Bertha' it was the name of a seriously HUGE heavy howitzer in WWI that the germans had there hands on.

Wakim · 01-03-2008

Here`s a pic of bertha

And the Russians had another one in the works

But they never finished because they realised it`d send the projectile in orbit

Dragoon King · 01-03-2008

Gustav or Dora would be a fitting name.

Correct indeed I did base it off the "Karl" and I'm glad you all like it. it's not entirely done as I still need to add some more 40k bits and finish the tracks up but its close enough to get the idea. I'll be painting it within January along with the rest of my armor. And I still do need a name for it, I was thinking perhaps "Mjolnir" or "Thor".

Once again thanks for the feed back.

Captain Slow · 01-03-2008

Mjolinir i like that. if it comes to a show of ahnds, then i vote for Mjolinir!

tho.....i know its something cool, at Least i thought that when i found about it...i just cant remeber now!!!
Little help? what is it Mjolinir stands for?

Baron von Lexus · 01-03-2008

It's Thor's hammer. and in fact can I add a poll to this thread?

Captain Slow · 01-03-2008

cool, thanks for the info. like i said, id read about it somewhere and i just thought 'VERY cool' anyway i digress.

i think so, i dont know quite how the forums work at the moment with them changeing, that and i never did know very much. ^^

does anyone else know how to put a vote in this thread??

Wakim · 01-03-2008
