Nice paint job. I like the weathering. I haven't really looked at any of the Dust models before. It sure would look intimidating on the table.

Thank you for the comments!

Revford: For rules I'm waiting upon "Secrets of the Third Reich" by Westwind although I have been looking at doing a mod for the excellent "Rules of Engagement" by Great Escape Games.
In any case I would probably field this beastie as an objective ( calling in an Airstrike to take it out or using a commando team to destroy it whilst it's in a repair yard).

Lovely model. Makes me want to build mine now, but I really ought to finish the other stuff on my workbench first.

Did you decide not to bother with a tank (or should that be walker) commander figure after all?

Excellent stuff PM!

Good to see you 'IN REAL LIFE' too....

You look rather normal for a master of all that is zombie-ish (amongst other things!!)

Love to see some different angles if it isn't too much trouble!

I like the repair yard idea, sounds like that has a ton of potential.

Some kind of giant scaffolding would be cool to go around it, have the heroes climbing up to plant explosives and fighting repair crews and guards on the way.

Thanks WhiteKnight. I bought the tank commander from BoltAction and di a head swap using a Westwind "GasMask" head. He's now mounted in my scout walker. I'll post some pics shortly.

Cheers SV! When you say you want different angles you do mean the Walker........... :

Revford: Without enough Allied stuff finished yet I think it would be unbalancing to use it as part of a force. I thought the repair yard idea was pretty good as allowed me to field it without worrying about hammering the Allies too much. I thought it could run along similar lines as attacking a submarine pen. I do like the idea of planting explosives, I can almost see it now.....An elite group of commandos, dodging sentries and searchlights......

The other cool idea might be a sneak allied attack/raid with the Germans having to race to the machine and turn bits of it on (like the legs, each gun etc.).

Thanks... now I have that mental image of a guard Schäferhund humping the mech´s leg armour... :lipps:

That "blow the beastie in its pen" approach sounds most sensible indeed. I have to think about that scene in "Decision at Thunder Rift", though, where the Kurita garrison fools the guerilla Mercs into thinking "that Shadowhawk on the transport rig is deactivated... we should steal it"... nb, THINKING.
