Got one. The tubing dented the cutting wheel. Probably good for p-card, but a good craft knife goes through that stuff like butter with the same technique. Also, it pushes the brass tubing in at the end, making it impossible to nest properly. I keep it in my toolkit, but haven't touched it in a long time.

That looks almost identical to the one I have, except possibly better quality. I'll keep it in mind; thanks. Also want to give you two thumbs up, O-Man, for some very enjoyable models to paint. The detail is superb.

My Baneblades are done. Sort of.

The primary turrets and chassis have been hit with Krylon Gloss Varnish, and are waiting for a matte coat. The secondary turrets are not varnished yet. Love 'em! the detail, especially in the back, is wonderful. Basecoat, a quick drybrush and coat of wash and they're done.

A few more turrets finished; again just gloss varnish, but otherwise finished.

Need to do more priming soon...

beautiful stuff. I like the way you've made the grey distinctions on the fenders clean, but with realistic weathering.

It's update time again. Not alot of finished product to show. I got the second rounf of EW stuff, and have been busy magnetizing and replacing barrels.

I now have enough built stuff to play a 3k game, something that should make those of you who've had to deal with my proxying these last couple weeks happy. The list currently stands at:

Tank Company - 825
2 Vanquishers, 8 Leman Russ, 1 Hydra, Commissar, Supreme Commander

Tank Company - 725
2 Vanquishers, 8 Leman Russ, 1 Hydra, Commissar

Tank Platoon - 350
1 Demolisher, 5 Exterminators, Commissar

Superheavy Company - 500
3 Baneblades, Commissar

Artillery Battery - 250
3 Manticores, Commissar

Artillery Battery - 250
3 Manticores, Commissar

Salamander Scout Platoon - 100
3 Salamander Scout

I am very close to the 5k mark. I have to magnetize and modify 10 and receive 6 Achilles turrets for the third Tank Company+Platoon Combat Command, then will be done. I'll try to get finished pics of a Company up in the next week or so.

In the meantime, I've finally gotten sick of having no suitable objectives for my guard.

Just a 20mm square and a 25mm Square GW base connected with 1mm plasticard. Edging is .5mm x 1mm strips, as is the observation slot. The doors are .5mm x 3.25mm (.020"x.125") strips. There is a magnet inside of each, so I can put turrets on the roofs if I wish.

Oh, I will. I want to get things painted up first, as right now they're an unphotogenic mix of painted, partially painted, primed and unprimed models.

We're getting there! Of course, if I could prime, I'd get further...

Old, but here for completeness:
