How big are the new unlocked heavy vehicles?

Good point!

The basic Wellington vehicle is 4.2cm long and 2.7cm wide.

You should do an armoured assault vehicle army deal for these too.

:nooo Stop designing cool stuff! I will now have to buy more...

Only thing not perfect that I see right now is that the sides are a but dull over the roadwheels. The tracks seem a bit plain too, but that might just be pics. Right now they do not suggest the massiveness of the tanks. Perhaps smaller sections would do the trick?

I can definitely add some extra details - they are based on an enlarged Churchillian hull which I think was well received for detail. But I don't mind upgrading the detail if that's requested.

How about a side by side pic with an ordinary churchillian for effect.

Hum, I quite like the armor on the sides myself, but if you mean the area between the road wheels and the armor, I think I agree that it could do with more details... but !
1) it might no be possible, because of the incur (E&C is obviously the knowledgeable one here) and
2) we probably won't see this area, as it will be hidden by the side armor from most viewing angles I think.

I think even some gribblies added above the bogey wheels would work great in there. Nothing too much needed but that flat space really sticks out. Maybe just a vertical bar going up into the chassis?

Bar could do the trick! I would also like to see escape hatches. Maybe a ventilationgrille. Like on a WwII charB1 bis.

I agree - this looks a little bare on the sides. If i had to be picky, the only slight improvement on the churchillian imho would be some details around the tack runners - though if you do you might find you need to cast the hull in 3 parts to get the detail to cast properly... ? I think its just that the rest of the model is so full of detail these areas just stick out slightly.

At 4.2cm it sounds like you have made the track units slightly longer than the curchillians as well as wider ?

Any chance of those comparison shots ?

Casting question:
I assume the gladstonian with the triple siege bits & steel rain bombarditron is a two piece item?

and also: pledged to 3125 :D

I would have thought that they all were two part miniature with a common chassis ?

The Super APC version has a slightly different chassis

Right. Extra sponsons. That explains the lower cost - fewer molds. Well he shows the steel rain in open and closed position, so I assume the support variants are two piece.
