Yesterday As some of you were aware I had a disaster when one on my newly put up display shelves collapsed taking the newly displayed Squats and others tumbling down...
Feck!
Lots of broken and/or chipped figures, after I calmed down and collected the bits I could find and reattached the shelf (Now sits empty though) I started repairing what I could..Sadly 1 HW Trike was smashed and needed a full rebuilt/conversion.
So being me I like a conversion I bashed it together and by using the rule of cool I think it's now 100 times better.
I've used the muddy/rusted paint scheme as it was before but I used a few spot colours to make it a little brighter and less Mono-tone.
Hope you like the revamped trike, I'm going to be re-painting everything this way over the coming months as a long slow burn project that for once I won't need to buy much for (Thank feck says the Wife)
The rule of cool works, this one rocks!
ReplyDeleteThankies mate
DeleteGreat conversion Chico - nice dynamism on the gunner. Ashes and phoenixes and all that!
ReplyDeleteAye... I could have done with another long term project though hehe
Deletecouldn't rather..
DeleteLooks good mate!
ReplyDeleteI feel your pain, I drooped the majority of my RT marines on the stone floor at Warhammer World and they shattered. I literally nearly cried!
Yeah it's not a happy turn of fate really.
DeleteSorry to hear about the avalanche, tentacles will make everything better =D
ReplyDeletePut ya testicles away ya dirty man ;)
DeleteAre the forks supposed to be angled up? Or are they just a bit susceptible to bending, being made of lead & all? I've never picked up a squat bike before, so I honestly don't know.
ReplyDeleteThe paint job's a good'n :)
Aye the forks are normally meant to be straight but this trike was a broken mess after the shelf collapse and if I were to straighten them out chances are they would have snapped sadly.
