SickSix Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 I am currently building a Fellblade using a resin conversion set from Blood and Skulls Industry, the Tank Combo Pack plus some weapons and an extra set of small turrets. If you don't know, this stuff is made by Machinator, an amazing modeller. My YouTube playlist for this build is located So, I will post some pics for those that don't want to watch hours of me putting this thing together. I admit some videos get a bit long but I like to show my work so you can see exactly what I'm doing. So first some pics: Engine Plate Track Housings New resin top plate inserted Rear view Rear Again Hull together King Slayer cannons (haven't un-warped them yet) Mega Gatling cannons Siege Breaker cannons Tracks on Rear with tracks Rivets (Tichy Train Group plastic rivets on white plasticard strip) Magnets for side plate armor Magnets for sponsons and top plate armor Magnet Placement Sponsons and armor fitted Front Turret How she sits now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lachdannan Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Looking great! They are some good bits there. Did mine from the same company, though only I had more bigger turrets :) I wonder if you had as much trouble as I did with those tracks? Ended up with half the glue on my fingers and half on the tracks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ended up with half the glue on my fingers and half on the tracks! Actually, I asked Machinator about how to do the tracks before I started. If you check out my fifth video I cover how I did the tracks. Part of the thing is you have to cut out all the 'teeth' that the stock tracks were supposed to fit into. I also only put glue on the road wheels. There wad a tricky bit where I had to glue a single track piece to other track pieces without it being supported by a road wheel.

Biohazard Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 That is insane! Im so tempted to build a big beast like this myself after seeing this and Brother Syths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unknown Chronicler Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 That is insane! Im so tempted to build a big beast like this myself after seeing this and Brother Syths. I have to agree with Biohazard on this one, now I might have to get one for myself once I start my Guardsmen army ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Looking good. Machinator will enjoy seeing that too ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machinator Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Looking good. Machinator will enjoy seeing that too -_- Indeed I do ;) It's looking great so far! Yeah getting that tracks to fit right has always been a pain. I did a redesign of the tracks this year to give them a better fit (the new ones were used above) but it's still a challenge. I'm looking forward to seeing it painted up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
