Well I’ve finally made some progress on my Krieg! This time some heavy metal! Love this model and for a large Forgeworld kit it was relatively easy to build. I went with my usual colour scheme and numbering system (this is the 1st tank of 3rd Heavy Tank Company) Enough preamble here’s the pics: Macharius Vanquisher Macharius Vanquisher Macharius VanquisherMacharius Vanquisher Macharius Vanquisher I was very happy to find the transfers (I think they’re for Cadians) and the words Gloriam Mortis which loosely translates as Glorius Death so seemed fitting for a Krieg tank!

Very suitably grim dark yet realistic. Excellent work as always! Looking forward to the mortar

thank you for making a barbed wire base feature... I've been considering that for my proxy Harker / Mad Meg conversion.
once again, you've made something very cool, I think the blue sash is a reasonable concession for a Commissar to make to show he is part of the battalion (and thus, more likely to survive amongst those tense moments where friendly fire could occur!)

Cheers Walk, they are probably the best infantry sculpts in the range.
I’ll hopefully have an update soon.

Will you just stop, my hobby sanity is barely holding on as it is when this is what I'm competing with. But in seriousness looking great as always. Looking forward to a group shot

Rule of cool beats rule of rules everytime. Such a cool model and as always you do it justice. Looking forward to the rest of the squad

The rider and medusa look great. Did they get rid of the deathrider command squads? I thought those had the option to take a banner.

Thanks nutty!
Sadly there’s never been Deathrider Command kits. I used a slightly larger base and a banner for my Squadron Commander and used “C” engraved shoulder pads for the Command Squad members.
I’m slowly progressing with the other members of the Command Squad.

How are the kits? Did you have to do alot of prep?

Pretty damned good to be fair!
Minimal mould lines and such, the ones there were, were easily cleaned up with a craft knife.
You have to drill out the flags but that’s no hardship and the kit comes in only a few bits.
All in I’d thoroughly recommend it.
Hopefully they’ll perform on the field of battle!

Thanks mate! Sorry for the delay, I’ve been on holiday and didn’t have WiFi!
So chuffed, if you’d told me we would win the Champions League in January I would’ve thought you were crazy!
Great end to a season!
