Warzone Grizzly and Hussar!
« on: 22 June 2014, 11:28:26 AM »
The Grizzly from last years Kickstarter finally arrived! It is a very fine kit, you get some big fat resin blocks to assemble. Everything fits more or less smoothly together, some minor fitting problems can be easily covered.

I am happy! So on to some pics:






The full story, a scale comp shot with a GW Leman Russ, my fun and difficulties and why the two rear turrets are missing can be found here:

Scales up pretty well to a Leman Russ, The 13 year old in me loves this thing. So mean guns in places they should be! lol
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

Neato mosquito, but those guns at the very back of the tracks are going to get fouled the first time there's a good rain.

Yes, as said on my site, it is a strange, brutal and Dark Fantasy inspired design...

I almost like that (design I mean, the painting is top notch  :) ).

I could see myself getting one to have a play around with it (and make it more Ghibli-esc).

cheers

Lovely work, Agis. I daresay I like the Armorcast one better, for smoothness of lines and proportion, but your paintjob really pulls it together.

Looks a bit to be on the small side, though, doesn't it (going from memory of the RPG sourcebook stats, although those could be seriously strange at times)?

I'm with Chris, model-wise: the Armorcast version just looked so much better. But your paintjob screams Bauhaus Corporation and eradicating Dark Citadels from the surface of Venus!

I think it needs more guns. Also, the two small jerry cans on the turret are neat... They probably provide about 1 mile more range for the vehicle! :D

Nice model  8)

Very nice. In many ways an awful design but I somehow like it! I think I would have to remove the rear axle guns though.... The paintjob is great - I would be interested to know how you achieved it actually.

The original design was based on a manga model kit crewed by pigs, with the cost of everything rising this new model is the smaller smart car version of the original design.
AH, bad guy one, right? Pitty, it doesn't carry all the charm of the original I fear.
