Baneblade in progress

Posted by

Spurticus Rex –

I recently was given the oportunity to have a bash at the old resin baneblade from Forgeworld.
A friend had gotten hold of it from e-bay for a rediculosly cheap price, then found it was half built by a blind chimp with arthritic fingers.
I was asked if I could do anything with it, it was pretty grotty in places, but I managed to fix it, the tracks were mangled so I removed and re-fitted them, finding some were wrecked by HUGE air bubbles in the resin parts.
I rebuilt some links and reworked the skull links as they look rather cheesy by Forgeworlds standards.
I'm building it as a machine from the Krieg force, I've been told that if its good enough it'll be donated to the Triple Helix gamers center for their cabinet.
Here's how far I've gotten so far.

I've made some basic additions too, I decided to upgrade the engines, I've added blower fans to both sides, also a turbo on the back.

I'd like to know your thoughts about things to add.

The shiny finish is so I can apply decals, it'll be matted down later.

No way, I'm apparently at Techno-mage level already.
On the mil-mod web site I'm also seen as the airbrush ninja.
That said, I'm still painting it up, bit by bit, its a really big job.

I want to die in my sleep, like my dad.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers
