I suppose casting it wouldn't be too big of a problem...  Dang!  I should have thought of that - out of curiosity, how much would somebody have paid for a resin cast of the model? ???

That'd depend on the quality I guess. Would definitely be a good excuse to dig out the rules for the Steel Legion Colossus dropship from the early playtesting days... :;):

I know I got some for DRM's Doug, from the US Archives when they were still open. They were sold by the piece !  Like $70 USD each ! :O

Many thanks Van,again !  I figured I'd show some of my Flieger Korps ...  My second G/W Drop Ship is behind No. 7, the GZG Hvy Drop Ship.  Thanks again Van ! :D

It's actually a very nice model IMO. Nice work on those L4 by the way! :)

Very cool. Any ID on the other family members there? In particular I am interested in the shuttle behind the drop ship, next to the mother ship, with the large intake fans.

Wow just wow, finally went for ?79.77!

I'm one of the two to blame for the final price. I often get outbid by barret.50 on rare epic pieces, though. He's another serious Epic collector.

Oh well... let's wait for the next one. I guess this means I have more money available for your fleet, WMN  :p

ID =  Shuttle is a modified Bandai, Gundum Zangibal (I got Van, Maskim and Cuban/C some right from Japan);  Big #7 is GZG, the 3 other smaller one's (two versions) are GZG and off in the corner is an AMT/ERTL modified SW M/Falcon.  :D

L4, I just love the collection.  What a fantastic game that would make with zillions of Imperial Guardsmen flooding out of those dropships. :D

Indeed :cool: If someone WERE to accidentally cast some of those dropships I'd love to get my hands on a few and do a IG Drop Army... perhaps based on the Elysian list... :;):

If only a pattern were available to do so.

As an aside, silicon molding removes acrylic paint in an unpredictable fashion. But that's neither here nor there.

You are spot on TRC !  I've got a lot of those old Dark Future turrets & weapons, I use them all the time ! :D  And all those Dropships belong to my Space Wolves, in the old SM1 fluff, they were the Drop Specialist !  I know the pic is not clear enough, but there is Space Wolf insignia all over them !  Maybe I'll see if Van can post the whole link again ... more close up pics.  I may be out of line, but Doug/DRM's CinC may have still have his SIB !? ???
