Take a peek: Hunters They aren't quite finished...but you get the idea...

Larry, Greetings all - For my Hunters/Hyperios, I modified a Whirlwind to only have one missile 'pod' and paint it in a scheme that contrasts with my WWs. Take a peek: Hunters They aren't quite finished...but you get the idea... Later, Larry. I love your work. It looks fabulous. I've seen several single WW rocket packs converted into Hunters and I really like your take on it. What did you use as the base of the Hunter missile launcher? Your magnetization project on the Wraithlord is great. I've already converted quite a few of my Titans to magnetic interchangeable weapons and hope to eventually convert them all to that standard. Andy Skinner and I once tried to get other interested in the magnetic weapons idea for Epic Titans, but there wasn't much interest at the time. By the way, welcome to the forum. I only remember seeing you post once or twice before. Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak. _________________ 6mm Sci-fi: http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/6mm ... nWarGames/ My Personal Blog: http://6mm-minis.blogspot.com/

Hey all - Sorry for the delay in reply... work is busy! Quote (MaksimSmelchak @ 14 2003 July,17:42) Larry, What did you use as the base of the Hunter missile launcher? Isn't that the base of the Whirlwind "turret?" - Dafrca Yes - That's the normal WW turret base, with a single rocket 'pod' glued directly onto it. Simple but effective. Maksim, Thanks for the praise on the magnetized WraithLord - it was a fun project and I'm very pleased with the end result. I've started buying Warlord bitz from GW and will be looking them over with an eye towards making some swap-able weapons kits. I'll post concepts and photos as they become available. You're right! - I haven't posted much (maybe once or twice)... but I've been lurking here for months, taking notes... Lastly, if you're interested, I have a couple more small photos of some of my (mostly finished) SM BA Epic minis... Dreadnaught ?? ...and... LRs & Dread The photos came out a little bright, but they give you a pretty idea of what they look like... Later, Larry. _________________ "Going into hyperdrive ...is unpleasantly like being drunk" "Well, what's so unpleasant about being drunk?" "Ask a glass of water"   - HHGG

- Imperial VULTURE GUNSHIP - A gunship to cover the air cav. My latest idea is to make a Vulture gunship to accompnay my Valkyrie transport flyers. ------------------------- Here's the plan: - Use the old Silent Death Salamander as the base fuselage. - Mold and cast some Squat Gyrocopter turbines to mount on the back of the chassis. - Chop off the booms from some old Scotia P-38s in my bitz box and mount under the wings. - Add a BFG turret to the nose. - Add random ordinance to the wings. ------------------------- Here's another idea: Why not use the Reaper 07070: Mark IV Ghast (2) as a good VULTURE GUNSHIP proxy? http://www.reapermini.com/store....ba89039 ------------------------- Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak. _________________ 6mm Sci-fi: http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/6mm ... nWarGames/ My Personal Blog: http://6mm-minis.blogspot.com/

- LAND SPEEDER TYPHOON (No models yet, use whatever you have to hand!) - It's a standard Landspeeder with two AP missile launchers mounted on either side of the rear fuselage. It just dawned on me: These missile wings would work great for a LAND SPEEDER TYPHOON using the Epic-40k LAND SPEEDER chassis: http://www.reapermini.com/store....page=15 They are the wings off of the Reaper 07058: KODA Works Badger. The product is called 007058b: Badger Sprue. To see a full photo of the Reaper 07058: KODA Works Badger, use this link (It has a photo of a Badger with the missile wings extended): http://www.reapermini.com/store....&page=1 Happy converting!

Did you make your "carapace laser" flak tanks yet? Not yet, I have not received them from Doug yet. And I'm not sure which hull I want to use. Rhino, Predator or something else? ? I'll have to see which hull they look "best" on... _________________ Legion 4 "Cry Havoc, and let slip the Dogs of War !" ...

I saw some of these Badgers at CONQUEST and they would work great for LAND SPEEDER TYPHOON conversions. I also though of possibly adding the canrds from the SM Thunderhawk to balance the missile launchers.

Brood Brother Joined: Thu Mar 06, 2003 10:01 am Posts: 7823 Location: Sydney, NSW	Has anybody made a Russ Executioner with the Plasma Gun? ? I've seen the FW ones and don't like them too much; they are much smaller and not in scale with the E-50k era metal minis. I was thinking of ripping a plasma barrel off a HW Ork or something and glueing it to a filed down Russ barrel. ? Has anyone already done this? _________________ Tas My General blog: http://tasmancave.blogspot.com/ My VSF Blog: http://pauljamesog.blogspot.com/ My ECW Blog: http://declaresir.blogspot.com/
