It should be more blocky and with more rivets and discernible armour plates as the current GW design for SH vehicles.
Currently it looks to rounded and smooth.

Mmm, I've gotta agree with E&C and the monkey with the plasma pistol

Don't call him the M-word, he doesn't like the M-word :sulk:  :p

Lsutehall, why did you choose the Mole? I would've thought demand is greater for a hellebore?

I was planning on using a modified version of the mole chassis as an Ordinatus Minorus, but I've kinda gotten sidetracked by finishing the mole.

When I can work on this more, I'm going to scrap the "finish the mole" idea and start on the conversion. I've got an idea for ad-mech detail to the track sides, and for what to do with the central section. I'll reduce the thickness of the hatches as well - I agree that they look too thick from the sides. Hopefully I can add more detial to the inside faces, as well as the tops - I've got an idea or 2, but I'm not sure where to put any engine detail yet.

My intent is to leave enough space on the main deck to mount any existing titan weapon, as well as any others I make for other projects.

more rivets

I guess I'll never understand the fascination with rivets on armored vehicles.

They look more chunky/industrial/mechanical/WW1/SteamPunk with rivets :)

I'm not concerned about the lack of rivets, but this model is no more detailed than the original mole model.

Using CAD to create a model of this size and then making it quite plain looking seems like a missed opportunity to me.

So, you'd rather have your sci-fi tanks look like A7V's than Leopards?  :rock:  To each his own.

No. I like my Imperial Wh40k vehicles look like the A7Vs than Leopards.

Okay. As I said, to each his own. I prefer my IG vehicles to look at least modern.

Yeah, good point.  :laugh:  I've gotten used to the pre-World War II look.
