So I finally managed to get the turret done, had to do a bit of a kit bash because the barrel was too small, ended up using a grimdark terrain bit for the barrel. For purely nostalgic reasons I felt I sorta had to give it the gold/bronze ish look.
Not quite 100% done but close enough, probably gonna add some transfers and do some cleanup but it's mostly there.
Had this printed way bigger than stock size so it'd block more los/fit more infantry on the roof. Had my friend also print just a small outline of the structure to replace it with when it gets destroyed as area terrain, added some bits to make it look more like rubble. I added a plastic bit to the roof to block off the stairs so bases don't fall down into the structure. The aquila turret isn't glued but it ended up fitting perfectly. Very cool structure https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/hab-unit-villa You can see the stock size in the render pics. I just wanted it to hold like 4 or more bases up top. Happy with the new size, stoked to get it painted.
So finally got the leviathan command vehicle built and primed. Gonna try and paint it up very soon. I've attached the rules that are also wip. I didn't have enough lascannon turrets so I put a couple plasma ones, might swap them out later to it looks a bit better. Happy with the size, I know the old epic ones were very small comparatively but this feels "right" to my eye as it dwarves pretty much everything tank wise and its big enough to land an arvus lighter on top of which is great, also big enough to fit a 25mm base. I'm probably gonna magnetize the radar dish.
Painted some vanquisher russes for a friend's solar auxilia army. Mostly astrogranite and dawnstone dry drybrush. Leadbelcher for the tracks/guns and added some highlights with a chrome/silver paint pen.
