the landraider is my first major conversion

Pyro Stick:

That tank is ridicolously cool. Do you have any Chaos Squats in Exo Armour? I just got one of ebay for £9. Ill post pics of it when im done.

Merchant:

Wow Cool mate, thats one hell of a cool tank - I like the use of a skull - great, great work :cheers

Swissdictator:

Freaking awesome tank! I really like how that looks! It look evil… but that’s a good thing!

please give a tutorial.

tjub:

Yeah, the tank is awesome! Thou it would be even better if it was based on the first version of the land raider! :smiley:

Mosk:

What list are you going to use to play these?

Giftzwerg:

Mosk- I was playing Iron Warriors, cause i think they are the most DZ CSM army (Machineries of destruction) or alpha legion if i wanted cultists. Now i just use the generic CSM list. The cultists will be a traitor guard army.

Tjub- I agree. I just couldn’t break up an original landraider though, so if anone has a wrecked one…

Pyro Stick - I have 20. Photos of the painted ones will follow. I’ve been accumulating these for about 6 years now, bit by bit. Once I found out that the DZ made it into space, it became an obsession.

Tarrakk Blackhand - I used a A$2 “dime store” skull sold for aquarium terrain. The tracks were from a wrecked landraider i got from an Ork player. He was an ork and he was a player :slight_smile: I made a body with plascard, then covered the upper body with broken bits (rearranged) from a A$4 dinosaur money box from the same dime store. The bits were joined together with green stuff. The sponson skulls were $10 key-ring danglies from a goth shop. It was a lot of fun, more of an assemblage than a conversion. I was inspired by the hellcannon, linking the DZ with daemonically possessed machines and the obvious link to Daemonic Possession/extra armour as upgrades vehicles in 40k.  So it was a matter of opportunisticaly looking for anything that looked like a demon skin. Demon=dragon=dinosaur. Skulls, because, well, skulls are an ubiquitous motif in warhammer, especially us bad guys. I liked the idea of my troops pouring out of a skull mouth, the daemonic machines maw. In a way the daemonic vehicle “eats” the enemy. So why does a resin moneybox cost A$4 and a titan A$800!?

So: Aquarium shops, dime stores and goth shops
