Yeah it's a good way to unify the army, and it looks good which is always a bonus.

The greatest armour is of course faith in the Emperor, and a purity dangler.

Also a few test units to accompany the predator, not finished yet as they need the squad/company markings added.

Awesome work all-around. Do you have more picture of that extended Vanquisher? Guess you sacrificed 2 Leman Russ to do that the tracks and sides. How did you extend the hull of the tank itself?

Cheers, it was done in the days when you could buy individual sprues, so I didn't end up with too many spare parts. The extension was done by cutting the front of the hull piece off and adding a bit of plasticard in the gap. you might be able to see it in the few pictures I've added, you can see on the hull side where I didn't think about where I cut it, looks a lot neater on the later tanks.

Thanks for the explanation and the pictures, that helps a lot. I think I have enough bits to do something similar  :D Keep up the good work.

The monstrous anger of the guns, well gun.
I really should get some infantry done at some point.
