Hey hey, I have an update on the alt. weapon part.

I redesign the gun, thickening the cabling and the stabilizing bar, and cleaned up the gaps a bit. I also redid the sprue parts and tried to make sure the entire part has to fill as the resin goes from the fill hole to the vent holes.

The print has been ordered and should be in my hands sometime next week, then I will get on with attempt to mold and cast No. 2.

Hopefully I'll have better luck with this attempt.

Yes, I demand new pics! :)  I want to get as excited as everyone else because this sounds like a great project!

Wow, zombie thread.

I heard a rumor that there may have been a mold made of the sonic lances, but it wasn't me who pulled it off.

Maybe whoever it was that did so could post a pic or two if success was, in fact, achieved. If not, then I'll take a few snap shots once I can get hold of a finished cast.

PS. I actually spent some time today on a support weapon platform that I'm sure everyone will hate. But, as with all of the stuff I'm working on, it's mostly for me anyway. Still, when I'm done with it I will pass it along to more capable hands.

Ooh good to hear the sonic lances news :agree:

Are you modelling a W40k-style Support Weapons platform or your own design? I'm sure people would be interested in the former and probably the latter if it's up to the standard of your other modelling.

Nb. not including myself as interested in Support Weapons myself, but that's just because I'm doing my Eldar as a Saim-hann wild rider army with no troops moving less than 25cm (possibly 35cm).

The support weapon platform is gonna be some frankenstein combination of the 40k version and the current E:A/E:40k metal heavy weapon platform. I'm basically trying to match the style of the upper shell of the E:40k part so that the two platforms look related. The overall layout of the SWP should match the 40k version (4 engine cylinders, extended forward shell).

Not sure how I'll handle the guns yet.

Why don't you post it in the Epic 6mm subforum of the Epic Painting and Miniatures section?

How big are the second ed models compared to the third ed ones (prism cannon, massive gun on small skimmer etc), big enough to be 2dc vehicles for a more we heavy list?

The part in the above reply should fit right onto the existing SG heavy weapon platform.

The part below should fit (I think, anyway, not 100% sure until printed) on the SG wave serpent in place of that pitfull turret it has now.
