Unit Discussion/Previews

In some of the corners that wouldn't be rubbed off bricks, like in corners and things :)
 
Okay.
Here's a first test on the hyperios/rhino/razorback/whatever the spacemarines are using - vehicle chassis.

I think it's pretty close to the double-armoured thing.

The weapon turret is there just to make it look like a military vehicle.

What do you think of it? should the hull have different colours moved around (like the recesses in the track guards - should they stand out more from the armour plates?) - please do post suggestions :)

Ok, here's a "proper" preview of the hyperios. Obviously, the only thing making it anti-aircraft vehicle (the hyperios rocket batteries) is still missing, but you can get the first look on what colours I was thinking of.

Other changes include:
- colour changes (aren't they obvious :) )
- added headlights
- changed the hull proportions a bit

So, what do you think so far?

Ok, Here are a couple of updated previews:

Traitor basilisk has some rusty colours added, and also some more golds. I dunno, something to do with slaneeshi cult I suppose...

The hyperios now has the rocket batteries included. Also the hull is slightly longer now (approx 15%) to match more with the hull shapes of the units made by muffins. But they are not still exactly the same as the ones made by him - I believe he had older models of the space marine land vehicles...

What do you think of them?

This would be a chaos hyperios AA... something similar would be the chaos whirlwind (with fewer but larger rockets).

EDIT: but now I remember, that you suggested making a chaos hydra flak tank for a chaos Anti-aircraft unit. And this is a Hyperios AA for chaos. So, what'll we do? Shall I make a chaos hydra flak instead of this?

Here's a preview of the chaos hellhound tank. Did LMR! mention something about requiring a new hellhound for imperial guard? I think c'n'p:d one we already have is just fine, save the lack of prometheum tanks... :)

How about the colouring? I think that rusty metal should be the way to go... after all, this thing has been through hell's inferno, and there's no paint left in the vehicle.

BTW, traitor chimera & basilisk are done, but I'll make a nice round unit-pack of chaos vehicles, which I'll release in the near future :)

Now the hyperios is also done (the space marine version - not the chaos version).

Now, I'll just have to wait for your suggestions/comments/demands before I make more vehicles. ;)

And also, you could give me suggestions on what else were there needed... or are those needed mentioned in the 1st post?
 
Chaos were going to have a Chaos Hyperios and the LatD were going to have a Traitor Hydra, so this and a traitor hydra would be great!
Damn, somehow I just knew there was something like that lurking around the corner... :lol:
 
Okay,
here's a preview of the traitor hydra.

come on, gimme some suggestions on the colouring of these things. The rusty browns are getting a bit boring, I'm afraid :)

Lizzy,
did you want me to make a new IG hellhound too?
BTW, I'm going to Mikkeli (St. Michels in swedish) for a couple of days - away from all computer activities... Happy holidays everyone :)
 
A new IG Hellhound would be good if you wanna do it. i wouldnt be opposed to keeping mine, i just think it could be done better, thats all :)

Most dark colours would work fairly well, say a deep red or green. a lighter shade of grey or silver, like bare metal, would also do the job. and you could probably add some camouflage patterns if you wanted too, too :)

Have a good holiday :)
 
Okay, enough with the holiday trip :)

I think I'll give the chaos hydra the same hull colour as the chaos hyperios.. to keep a nice continuous colour-theme with the Anti-aircraft vehicles for chaos. And the chaos hellhound will get a dark-brownish paintjob.

And I think I'll do the IG-hellhound too (if you don't mind), and I'll give it a nice cityfighting camouflage-colour (black-grey-white).
