Tangamarine Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Here's a converted plastic thunderfire cannon I finally got round to finishing today. This is what gamesworkshop gets when they make a hard to put together, metal box set costing $100.20NZD http://i844.photobucket.com/albums/ab3/darrylwhg/DSCN3723.jpg http://i844.photobucket.com/albums/ab3/darrylwhg/DSCN3724.jpg Comments welcome Thanks Brother Dvorn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natanael Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 I like it a lot. Looks a little like some kind of AA-gun to me :tu: The techmarine is awesome as well! - Natanael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Cool. I concur on the difficulty and price issues with the real McCoy. Can we get a How-To or parts list on that sucker? Maybe the Techmarine, too? Though one bit of nitpicking: it seems a bit shallow in the body, especially compared to the barrels. Kinda gives the impression the thing is a muzzle loader. Probably too late to fix though :tu: Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warsmith Aznable Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Good stuff! Where did the tracks on the Thunderfire Cannon come from? Is that Rhino tracks cut up and GSed to make that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janitor101 Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Good stuff! Where did the tracks on the Thunderfire Cannon come from? Is that Rhino tracks cut up and GSed to make that? They're IG Tank treads, Leman Russ by the looks of them. The thunderfire could use a little beefing up in my opinion, looks a little small right now, but the Techmarine is awesome.

Tangamarine Posted November 20, 2010 Author Share Posted November 20, 2010 I will put up a parts list in a couple of days as I got exams to study for, as I finished this during "study" leave. I'll take some pics from other angles, and label the parts soon. How would you fix it? The tracks are from a chimera I once had. How would you "beef" it up? Its currently undercoated black and whatever the orange foundation paint is called. By the way, its going to be painted orange. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
