Always want to finish this army and HOPEFULLY will be able to once my beasts are done (hopefully GW doesnt tell me I need a new army book and change everything again). Sorry back on track.....

Was considering trying to make the *&()pit from a modified valkyrie ^&^%pit but its too much mucking around!

This is the original one I was working on.

Newly modified one.

Gun arm- based off a modified GAU/A Avenger 30mm cannon )a-10 thunderbolt or WARTHOG as they are commomly called). Couldnt really make it the same scale size as the real ones are bigger than a small truck!!

Trying to work out if the weapons look better on top of the shoulders OR under the arms. I like both, which makes it hard. Ignore the holes in the top of the weapons, they will be filled.

The old set of legs that I built were too small and skinny so I modified some deff dread legs (yes, that happened to be lying around). The toes have been also changed to make it look like it has either just landed or is about to take off. Thats what I was going for anyway.
