It's about time I posted something other then about Curious Constructs, so here's my main project at the moment - my Leviathan. It's been on the go for some time now, years in fact, but until a month or so ago it had spent a couple of years under the bed waiting for me to have the chance to come back to it. It's built from a pair of Baneblades, a load of Cities of Death buildings, a metric ton of plasti-card, and a liberal raid from my bits box. It's finally back on the work bench because I'm off to Warhammer World for a campaign weekend in April, and they've given me the okay to use it as a Fortress of Redemption! I'm a slow painter at the best of times, as anyone who has followed my blog might know, so I drafted in the help of a friend to do the basecoat with his airbrush to help speed things along. Now its my turn again, I'm gonna paint it like my other vehicles with strong edge highlights, the statues will probably be bronze, and there's an awful lot of iconography to pick out, including the massive aquilla on the front of the hull. Hav'nt made a final decision on how to do the windows just yet - I'm thinking some sort of stained glass effect, but as yet unsettled on if I'll do that for definite, and if I do, how! Open to ideas!

I wish I had the time, money patience and ability to build something like this.

Is it just me or does the second picture not work (repeated below)? I know the picture is where the link points though, arghh! Anyway, cheers chaps, BG, I don't think I could do it again to be honest!

Well you've done a good job on it. You should have a mould made to sell it.
Also I've sent you a PM regarding something else.

I would make my big vehicles with baneblade tracks too, good call. It looks pretty nice

I would be honoured if an opponent brought that our for me to face in battle. Great work!

That's just mad..
I have a truly ancient Epic version of this ; the dimensions look spot on.
