Big Yellow Bangstick. ( or how I learned to Baneblade without GW )
« on: December 24, 2013, 08:46:54 PM »
I built these one for my lads (both married, one with kids of his own) who wargame WH40K infrequently with their mates. A Baneblade or two was requested ( along with some Titans) - I obliged the only way I know how - by using every bit I could find in the spares box and to resin cast that which needed duplication.





..and then there were the Titans..  but that's another story..

Great job on the Titans.

.. I have a "recycling facility" now since I upgraded my spares box to "requires a ladder"  ;)
(I've just been very fortunate over the years that my wife doesn't make me throw stuff out ! )

Thanks for the kind words guys.  :)

That's some incredible work and your talent for details is limitless!

I really like the Big Yellow Tank. Yellow was my mom's favorite color. When we'd play family board games and were picking out game pieces, she'd always say we could pick any color we wanted, but she'd move the yellow one anyway.

I can relate !  Last year at xmas my 84 yr old mother didn't want to bother my "kiddies" ( all adults mind you) with their xmas board game by joining in..  but she could assist by throwing the dice..    We made her go to bed at 0400 xmas morning..  true story.
