Showcase: Post your Tanks

Here's the Land Raider Achilles for my Ash Revenants chapter. Just needs some varnish and it's finished.

Fine work. What's the Chapter symbol, the red skull wreathed in blue flames? What's the thing on the right side door, a reliquary bearing skulls of martyred battle-brothers the Land Raider passengers intend to avenge?

Yup, the chapter symbol is indeed the skull. I got the decals from Scumb4g Kustoms after years of procrastinating so hopefully my marine vehicles will be picking up some traction out of the pile of shame and onto the painting table. The white script with gold lettering was from the same source.

 

As for the reliquary, it was more to do with the fact that I glued the door upside-down like an idiot and then had to do some cutting, filing and application of green stuff, plastic detaild and much cursing to hide the damage. However, I love the idea you have suggested. Since Revenant is directly translated as "to return", the idea of the chapter's dead returning as a reminder of deeds to be avenged, it fits really well. The chapter theme also fits perfectly to Dreadnought pilots returning from the dead and Primaris returning to service after crossing the Rubicon Primaris. 

 

Thanks for the additional inspiration. :smile.:

That looks so good in Iron Warriors colours. I was thinking to myself that Iron Warriors could have a few awesome looking Nurgle-themed models but it looked like you were way ahead of me there. :)

My Snakebite bowelburna (converted from a Kustom Boosta blasta).

As I had truncated the exhausts I wanted to add something there instead and strangely jaw bones fit perfectly.med_gallery_63428_13471_154604.jpegmed_gallery_63428_13471_477606.jpegmed_gallery_63428_13471_155655.jpeg

And the gunner, slapping the fire button with a grenade. Shoulder armour made of old tire, inspired by Mad Max and Simon Phoenix. Must add more of this through the army.

Off-white and green plus the “XIV”, I suspect that’s an artistic interpretation of the Death Guard symbol on the front.

Pre-Heresy Death Guard?

 

Yep, a different take on the norm by going classic old school in the paint style with the old models.  The symbol appears to be part of a larger transfer sheet if you check out his thread :)  Great stuff in there, not sure why I hadn't seen more of it before! (I feel hard done by, will have to review that thread later)

Finished my legacy Predator. Rescue project from original parts only.

Beautiful work. Is it from an original Chapter- maybe a Dark Angels successor, as the Grim Reaper on the turret side suggests? Or can I read an article on it, in Lexicanum?

It is. A very lose Death Guard scheme. The tank supports my mono-Nurgle second-edition army project. Check out the link in my signature.

Hi all. I've recently finished my Deimos Pattern Relic Predator and I really tried to emphasise the "Relic" part.

 

Once again thanks to Scumb4g Kustoms on Facebook for the chapter insignia and the white text.

The turret art was created with some old (old old) Space Wolf transfer sheet painted over for a canine head. I didn't know how to make three head decals look good so I stuck with one.

 

As usual, rotate-o-vision. This time it's almost in focus!

 

 

Let me know what you think.
