Parade Ground Colors ... I think not ... ;D Not in my "Epicverse" ... :P Image Image Image I use them for Traitor PDF/Cultists based on the old SM1 Chaos templates. I just double stat each as 2 Shadowswords or 2 Baneblades or 2 Decimators. Twice the weapons, two x the Armor/Saves/Damage Rating, at the cost of 2 of those Vehicles ... only thing that stays the same is Speed ... ;D

Perhaps some of these models might be good proxies but I think the scale is not good (as with uncharted seas for Man o War)

Some of the bigger ones could work with a little fine tuning for Squats, Chaos, maybe even IG ... Nice pics !!

Size is displayed finally.

65 mm long, 49 mm wide 51 mm tall.

I suppose simple tanks will be smaller.

This looks like a capitol imperialis.

Looooovely.

Same here. I am not familiar with the casting quality of Spartan Games stuff, but if the miniatures turn out just half as good as these models suggest then I'm definitely going to order a bunch!

they don't fit very well with mu vision of what a Capitol Imperialis should look like, but they DO look very good nonetheless. I think I might get me an army.

i am cautiously excited. i grabbed a bunch of early run Firestorm Armada stuff from them, and it remains basically the worst experience i've ever had with model quality
the details are crisp and beautiful, but the resin overflow and shrinkage in particular ruined a good 2/3rds of the stuff i bought... :/
still, the recent stuff has been pretty much fine (one kinked metal piece from the last 3 packs) but the ratio isnt enough to blindly buy-in again...

yeah, its not much of a Capitol Imperialis, but it could work well as a base for a Leviathan, or yes, when it first appeared on this board was me suggesting it as a sister of battle basilica
