Well after seeing so may good looking objectives on here I decided to make some for my Marine army. I have four on the go so far.

My Blitz objective is a Marine Command Bunker with Land Raider parked out front. It is made up of your standard stuff. I had a spare Forge World free standing bunker, some bases from Hydra Platforms, a Radar from a 40k vehicle sprue, old Thunderhawk wing Bolters, a Whirlwind launcher and a Land Raider. I will add some detail later on, with some Marines for feel.

Humble Beginings


Bits to attach


Taking shape


The basic idea


Coming up next, the OP in the ruins.

Ok so to the OP in the ruins. I use a GW bunker that I had lying arround. To this I added a radar dish from the same set and a heavy bolter turret from a Rhino. An Imperial Eagle was added as well. OK so to the pics.

From the back


The front


SO next is the ammo dump, I had been given a couple of the ammo dump counter things that used to come with the Objectives Pack I think, I also had some Old Crow containers and some FW Airfield Accessories at arms reach. So here is the result.

Quick and easy


An Imperial Eagle to remind me it is my objective.

My fourth objective is a bogged Land Raider. I have seen similar things done before so I thought I would give it a dry. I cut the Raider on an agle to give it some slope and then added some DAS clay to creat the base with.

Desecrating a Land Raider


Adding the clay


And an update on the Blitz Obj, added a couple of Marines at the back door, and did a little basing using MILIPUT.



Ok, so now I am just waiting for things to dry so I can get on with some painting.

Cheers
