I might make this model have interchangable front weapons.. ie. DeathRoller, Buzzsaw, Claws etc...
defanately want to make the BuzzSaw }:) ?I have plans to make it like my epic scale model but this this one will have twin BuzzSaws set at a 45 degree angel from each other.
Kinda like this " \ / " when viewed head on :;):
May make a roller be begin with, as its the easiest to build.

Started work on the turret, which was made using a plastic multi-vitimans tub . The barrel is made from a lipstick.
The wide track alowed me to build a tall turret without makeing the tank looks too disproportionate.

Also made a nice big ?engine from a bit I had left over from a Japanese Robot model... so that was handy :)

Added more detail.. started work on the Deathroller.
Im roughly copying the FW one.
The roller started out as a big tube of glue.
Cut 75mm off the tube, and incased it in plasti-card.

Finished detailing the DeathRoller.
I didnt want to simply attach the roller to the hull sides like on my epic model so Ive rebuilt the front of the Tank. This new front section also houses the tank driver.
I dont think theres going to be much or the origanal model visable but the time Ive finished.... doh.

Awesome work as usual mate!
Is the front section removeable? I seem to recall you toying with the idea of making the front roller interchangeable with a cutting disk like your other epic conversions.

Either way, keep up the good work - I cant wait to see it all painted up (take half as much time on painting as you do on the conversion and it should look amazing! )

Hi!

Kr00za, what tools do you use for cutting, drilling and putting together your conversions.

Unsure as yet. If I can make the deathroller interchangable without making the overall model look dodgy I will... otherwize Im pretty pleased with the roller.

I have to admit I thought that earlier on in the conversion, and wondered why you used a Leman Russ to begin with...

Looks really really nice.

True... could have saved myself ?20 :{
Now Im determind to make sure it ends up looking like a Looted Russ :;):
Still... total cost of this build is about ?30 "that includes the ?20 for the origanal Leman Russ.
To buy a FW BattleWagon with Roller and Kannon would cost ?125.
And I like my design better as its more like the epic BattleWagons.

Hi!

Those FW kits are pretty expensive, but I think your stuff looks better!
