Thanks!

honestly most of my FW stuff is weird fluffy stuff anyways like land speeder tempests and Damocles command rhino stuff with some of the wirder land raider varients. the titans and the thunderhawk were always pretty much oh cool 10 billion points exploding on no later than turn 2 so not that worried about it.

youd want it bare plastic to plastic. and superglue eh you dont need. plastic weld is the legit way to go this is my opinion obviously, im sure other people who are current know better but just my 2c metal or resin superglue, but wiggled plasticweld will do a way better bond that wont just pop off when dropped (usually)

seriously. squish it a bit, wiggle it around and its essentially one piece if its plastic to plastic.

might want to go with a gorgon, scale seems more accurate. that dont look like 10 russes could fit in there.

Ok so I'm working on my pseudo Capitol Imperialis and I'm looking at vehicle weapons to throw on top of it to make it look cooler.

Does anyone have any experience with the following bits?





Basically I just need to know the dimensions of the undersides of these bits and if they'll fit into the holes on the topside of the vehicle:



ok damocles is standard rhino turret sized.

hyperios is also rhino turret sized respectively

dont know the rest.

My problem is I'm unsure of how big that hole on the Rhino is that the weapon sits in though since I don't own any official GW vehicles at all. Same with the Legion Sicaran.

oh. when i get home I'll measure one for you nbd

bet you money dollars its either a std rhino 1/2 inch front hatch or a razorback+ 1 inch

hell you can take a helios launcher off a land raider and just stick it in the front hatch on a rhino

dark angels "wing" lists have always had weird rules like that. terminators/bikers/speeders count as troops, deep strike doesnt scatter stuff like that so not really suprising.

id like to say because its a one trick pony.

ok you can take terminators as troops but its all terminators and thats it except for ded transports.

same with ravenwing

no idea with new codex though

knights look poo poo.

i agree 2 squads of assault termies 4x LCs and a thunderhammer storm shield sgt

knights for 5 models with a power weapon look poo poo for 290 points

oh and chaplain with terminator armor if the rules still hold up for extra sass.

gonna echo previous poster on vallejo white.

sepia tone with whatever flow poo poo i used to use. (ill look) highlight from bone and add white in increments for highlights.

also.

(god im giving this away for free)

toothbrush dipped in thinned but scarlet red makes for some great blood spatter.

just run your thumb along it close to the model.

the only thing new to me from literally 20 years ago is the stupid queue and scalping thing. GW making things worse and making things always slightly worse than smurfs has kinda been par for the course, i think the rare exception was when Black templars first came out
