Actually it's two Land Raiders The gun is a plasma cannon from the old Space Crusade Chaos Dreadnought. Then I just covered everythin with glue and dippped it in my bits box Can't really remember... Some BFG bits, Paper clips, and bits of cardboard. Basically I just wanted it to look like a Plasma Annihilator on tracks with all sorts of electronic bits sticking out.
Cheers!

WM Nice, can you possibly identify the type of the Valkyrie I based my conversion on? I have searched the web for several months, and am still unable to get a 100% positive identification of the thing...

Judging from the pic I'd say it's from the original Robotech anime series. However, as you probably know many of the original Battlemechs (Warhammer, Wasp, Marauder, Phoenix Hawk, Archer) were straight from there and IIRC they had to change the designs or something to avoid copyright problems...

Macross, not Robotech. Macross was fused with several other series for US market and so Robotech was born.
I know it's a type of the Valkyrie, but cannot find it a proper identification - all of the ones I found on the net seem to be different.
Yesterday I finished another Dark Angel, Corvin his name (a little joke from my side, considering he wears Corvus armour)

Warmaster, I only saw your conversion now - it's one of the best Ad Mech stuff I'd ever seen! Congrats!
I may have sorted out my indeciosion procrastinaria re the 40K and WHFB and Epic stuff I'm meant to be painting...and have actually made a start: WHFB - Tomb Kings - currently sorting out some Ushabti WH40K - since I've done best in tournaments with my Legio Fausta, I'm giving them some back-up and more choice for army selection - more rocket-launcher devastators at the moment, to be followed by a Land Speeder typhoon and Razorback conversions; to be followed by Necrons or Tau. BFG - still on the Imperial Escort fleet, have started a transport ship Warmaster - Tomb Kings - no progress, but my Egyptian phase in WHFB should get these restarted - eventually. LOTR - Mordor Orcs - no progress Blood Bowl - Empire - no progress Mordheim, Necromunda - all models to be slotted into WHFB and WH40K respectively, but eventually a Kislev warband and a Delaque gang should emerge Last but not least - Epic A.: i've given the Eldar a rest, and have started to work on a hint army (i.e. rules to be published) - Orkimedes' Gargant army. Ok, i'm treating myself to a bit of fun messing around with Gargants. i've started by reqorking my two complete Gargs, a Mega and a Slasha, starting with the latter. A decisevly Moon flavour should dominate. Pics of the Slasha up as soon as his refit is complete.

Ever wondered what happened to Hitler?
Well I was painting up a command Baneblade for my Desert IG tonight. When I painted up the tank Commander in the turret hatch I had a minor incident with a slightly misplaced blob of paint originally intedned to be the mouth... For some reason it looks more like the tiny moustache on a certain famous German person. I suppose that the brown coat and hat only adds to the impression. Not intentional I assure you, but I've decided to leave it as it is. It looks funny as hell... I'm not sure it shows up very well on this pic but you get the general idea...
Cheers!

Great work one and all - Lots to draw inspiration from in the past few weeks!
Personally, I've been too busy painting stuff for other people to do much work for myself lately, but I have managed the odd piece here and there.
Latest off the workbench for my own cabinet is a warmaster scale Brettonian Sorceress. Not entirely happy & the Challice on her cloak needs to be re-done, but at least its another model that I can keep myself (ad nobody has to see the back when its in a cabinet ? ?).
(edit: From the photos it also appears her left breast needs some atention... OK, just missed a highlight....)
