Ramshackle Games' GNU GMC (T) finished
« on: August 31, 2012, 10:56:08 AM »
A couple of days ago, I posted pics of a finished GNU from Ramshackle:


Now I have finished a simple conversion of the standard GNU as a Gun Motor Carriage (Tracked).  As far as the GNU itself is concerned: this is "straight from the box" (lol) with a half-MG turret from the armoured version added to the front (for close support) and this pencil sharpener (3.65 Euro) as the dreaded "99" AA/ATK dual purpose automatic gun:


The gun is clicked loose from the base containing the sharpener proper, glued on a washer and then to the vehicle.  I first wanted it to be magnetised, but since it is metal and top heavy (and this is a game model) it didn't work as I expected so I glued it on to avoid nasty surprises when people handled the model.  I know Ramshackle has a couple of stunning guns that fit the GNU, but I'm saving those as field artillery...

This is the result (the figure is a converted GW Catachan for scale ref purposes):






Comments are - as always - welcome.

Gorgeous work!  I simply must get one of those to go with the new Chaos Cultists coming out from GW.
