Don't mind the seats personally, but i can deal with standing room only and a grab rail to hold onto if that's more popular.

yeah plenty of people beat me to the standing with rail/chains/other handhold but I think that's the best way to go. Might even open the way for interesting conversions.

I think chains should also be added around the hull for all those converted extras.

Work continues - ditched the seats, and just added two shielded "rows" the passengers knell inside when riding. Got some chains on the outside to hang onto, can't really add them inside due to casting concerns. The Gun position was adjusted again to make room for the passengers. The floor will be textured. Still no work on the cockpit yet - there will be chains and skulls decorating it as well.

This is looking great even without the cockpit decorations! Lovely work!

Definitely improving as you go. Looks like you took the advice on sweeping back the sail, as the lines on this version are much nicer. Gun position is about perfect for on top.

I like the lack of seats. Seems fine this way, though again, wouldn't mind a separately cast insert that went into those wells and had kneeling/crouching riders.

As far as chains and skulls go, I'm fine with chains and somewhat indifferent to skulls. Appropriate, but not necessary.

Looking good, like the chain, what about several smaller chains for individual use? These could be copied on the outer hull. Below the main chain(s) I'd like to see a foot rail (like below) running the length of the crew compartment to stand on, like on the land spreader storm. Having troops hanging off these rails in preparation for assault will look soooo cool. As for the gunner in he new position, he look very exposed. How about extending the point of the prow into a wing shape (in line with the main sail) terminating in-line with the back of the gunner.

Ditto on the no skulls - they look awesome without.

I like the smooth cockpit, actually; good place to practice a little 6mm freehand :)

Looks good. The prow might look better concave, like the pointy base of the outside fins.

Definitely improved - like it much better, and without skullz, please.

Would also like to see the angle of the main sail increased to around 75 degrees in relationship to the deck, with proportionate sail surface area increase (also increasing the angle of the center mast a touch).

I have recently painted Khorne Daemonic Assault Engines, and I suspect Epic is the real culprit behind recent 40K skullification.

Love where this is going, keep up the good work.
