Thanks mate

But update time. The butresses have earned their twin-linked heavy bolter turrets. (A grand total of 46 inside of ten minutes.)

looking good, i cant believe how much its progressed from when i first saw it! Yer sure when i get back home at the end of the week ill email you some scans if you PM me your email.
My idea was to have a render of thousands even hundreds of thousands of space marines lined up in the palace forcourt with the banners of each chapter along the sides. Its similar to this pic i foud of nazis 'http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Reichsparteitag.jpg' parading in a ralley. Well ive always wanted to model that for a render and ive figured out how to composite multiple images so i dont actally have to render 500,000 sapce marines and explode my computer lol! Good luck with your model anyway, quick question though as i dont know much about BFGothic, the dual bolter turrets on top of the butresses, they are the same scale as the standard marine bolter? I was just wondering so i could get a sense of scale to the model compared with a human character?

They'll be larger than the Marine bolters because they're Heavy Bolters, but are likely to be bigger than the ones that Devestators carry. If you've seen the turrets on Dawn of War, that's the approximate size, if you've only got normal GW models, they'll be about the size of (if not slightly larger than) the heavy bolters on the Razorback's turret or Predator's sponsons.

EDIT: It's also worth noting that vehicles in the minature range aren't to the same scale as the infantry by a long shot so sizing it up looking only at models is problematic at best.

Yes they're larger than normal heavy bolters. (Assume its a requisite for space combat or something.) Howeve i've provided you with a 2 metre tall "skeletor" dummy as a frame of reference.

The SSHKMS has been rebuilt as I wasn't entirely happy with the old one.
