Downloads: 0 Uploads: 0 | WARHAMMER 40K Vehicles I mentioned on my Space Marine thread, that Im having to split my 40K models into separate threads, since Im wanting to do some Vehicles & Creatures aswell, .... this also creates less confusion, and keeps things a bit more organised. But I will include links to my other 40K threads, since all are active atm under my Sig (when I get to it) ... So Ive moved the Drop Pod pics over to this thread, and keep the Marine thread just for the Characters and accessories, like weapons/ stuff they wear & carry etc .... I was initially going to start the new 40K Vehicle thread with the Warhound Titan, but decided on the Land Speeder first. Below is the TEMPEST variant, though I will also be doing the Typhoon & Tornado Classes that have the open cockpit armed with different weapons etc ..... Jas I edited the Drop Pod pics to remove text reference to the Blood Ravens, since the Pods can be used for any Chapter. DROP POD Info: Drop Pods are one-way, sealed, armoured landing craft. Once released they plummet through the planets atmosphere, streaking through the sky, before firing retro jets that brake their decent before landing. Upon landing the pod opens to disgorge Space Marines in to the heart of the enemy. |

Downloads: 0 Uploads: 0 | Thanks very much guys !! .... That first WIP pic for the Tempest was just Screen Caps of the viewports in MAX, not actual renders yet, it was mainly just to show that it's been started and will see larger renders hopefully for the weekend ...@ Knight -Templar: I remember you saying you were going to do a Drop Pod, ... You should post your work Simon, I'd like to see that coming together as a WIP, get a thread started for it .... @ Dallidas: When reading some background Info on Space Marines you understand why they have this equipment, .... and below is a summary of what Ive read from various sources about them .... So dive into the 40K Universe for a sec >> That particular Drop Pod holds five Space Marines, If you look at the base of the pod you'll see that its a Pentagonal shape having Five doors ... Drop Pods are not just restricted to Space Marines, ... There are variants that contain weapon supplies, Missile Launchers, as well as robotic Assault Cannons, once they land, the doors drop, and the Cannons let rip .... Larger Pods can hold a single Mech, like the Dreadnought. Plus the Pods are re-usable of course, and every Chapter has them as a standard part of their equipment. The Orbiting ship's crew who monitor the Pods descent, transfer LZ data to the Pod and are launched on a set course directly into Enemy bases or ongoing battles termed DEEP STRIKING ... Drop Pods are not just for any soldier to use, these are specially made for the Space Marines ... who are considered the cream of Mankind's fighting force against anything that threatens the existence of humanity throughout the Galaxy ... And as such, the Protectors of Mankind are afforded such resources ..... Whereas Conscript Troops are told to hold their breath and Jump .... though they do serve their purpose, ... Thousands of glowing asses entering a planets atmosphere, streaking through the sky is a sight that would make even the most hardened adversary retreat  ..... Will post an update on the Tempest Soon ... Jas |

Downloads: 1 Uploads: 0 | The Land Speeder looks like a good start. If it's anywhere near as good as the rest of the work it'll be something to be proud of, and of course, you have a marine mesh as a pilot already if you want to make an uncovered version. Anyway, inspirational stuff. I may give a Land Raider Crusader a try (mostly on account of having just bought one), or a Master of the Ravenwing. |
