I had sketched a rough idea for a Chaos Transport and decided to take a shot at what an updated Leviathan might look like.  My thoughts for construction are to use 4 Chimeras as the base, the Battle Cannon turret of the Baneblade, and the rest mainly out of plasticard.  I am not sure what to use for the Lascannons or Doomsday Cannon yet.

It looks kind of OGRE-ish. Not that that's a bad thing.  :D

Like the idea of an Arvus lander being on it. Kind of like an Imperial Colossus.  Definately improves imperial comms.

Bit to square for my liking, but perfectly matches the other lucius pattern stuff that is out i reckon.

Very nice.

For the doomsday cannon the easiest thing is probaly to use plastic tube. For the lascannons how about the laser turrets from the E/W Gladius transport? Since you get plenty of extra turrets in the pack there should be enough to go round.

If I may offer a suggestion: Move the track units closer to the front and back edges of the hull. At present it looks like it might have some difficulty negotiating obstacles. Yeah, I know, there are unlikely to be obstacles that big but it is a matter of great aesthetiic importance. At least to a treadhead like me...  :;):

So today I have worked on the Leviathan itself and have gotten a good amount of it done.  I do not currently have it built, but have cut most of its sides for it.  I have figured out the parts I plan to use in addition to the scratch pieces.  Razorback Lascannon Turrets  for the Lascannons and Baneblade Turret for the Battlecannon.  Thoughts?

Not yet... I am short on bitz.  But I am thinking about it... the basic structure is put together.  Will post the shots when I get to a stopping point (no more components available).

And here is the picture of the built Leviathan, minus the turrets and tracks.



More shots here.

Looks like she's coming along well, "O" !  We must of had an "intra-service mild meld" as I continued work on my L4 Lev Mk.2, for my Squats !  I'm using a large version of a Star Wars M/Machine Sandcrawler. It's molded in clear plastic and bigger than a Lev/Cyclops/Colossus !  It will be stat'd the same a the standard Lev Mk.1, in the E:A rules ... :)

Dont worry about the bitz (for now)... I need to slowly buy extra minis for various bitz anyway.  My bitz box disappeared when I moved...  I will slowly rebuild.
