Here is the completed sheets for you to download and print. They can be used for my RPG or as the Infected Colonies for One Page Rules. I worked briefly with OPR on these, but they wandered away from 2D minis. They were fun, though.
The hull, made of chipboard, glued together with Heavy Bolter bit and Autocannon made from plastic tubing fro a hobby shop.The hull rubberbanded to the side tracks. The tracks on these things are incredibly gribbly. Close up of the glued tank, with chipboard track guards.Turrent swivels on blue tack.Unpainted completed chimera next to the rhino.Black basecoat.Paint job without all the Inquisitorial icons.Printed cardstock banners and icons are tacked to the tank.Both tanks all tatted up.Burn the heretic!!
I love the Inquisition in Warhammer 40k. I have several warbands of them in my collection. As they ally with my many armies, I need specialized transports for them. I already showed you my paperhammer rhino, so here is my paperhammer Chimera. (rhino shown for scale & upgrades I did on it)
Chimeras are extremely difficult to build, with all their weird angles and compartments. Hard but fun!
Next up will be an Inquistorial Mk1 landraider. It’ll be my third landraider to scratchbuild. After that, some sort of flyer for the Inquisition. So much fun.
Modeling has been consuming my brain, as of late. I WILL get back to drawing, but I am having fun with this, again.
And I can’t just buy a tank kit and build it, I need to build it from scratch with cardboard, because, reasons. Well, the reasons are it’s more challenging, more fun (to me) and costs next to nothing.
Edit: I reworked the whole model after years and glowed it up. So much better!!
I’ve found some templates online and have fankensteined them together, with glue and spare bits. I’m quite happy with the process. I was able to print on chipboard as a guide, but all that will get painted over.
And here is a template sheet I used to make it a MK 1. I also added leftover bits from various kits.
I aim to make a few of these to act as rhinos for my inquisition, whirlwind for my Spacemarines and chimera proxies for my Imperial Guard (part because I love the rhino chassis and part because I hate the chimera chassis & because rhinos are infinitely easier to build than chimera).
I have some weapons rigs worked up that I can swap out. Keeping weapons choices similar to chimera, the characteristics and stats are virtually the same rules wise in 8th edition. My core of Imperial Guards is RT era figures, and they ride in rhinos back then, so it fits!
As I whip up a few more,I’ll try and take more progress picks as I go and update here with them.
Working on glowing up my ooooold school Imperial Guardsmen. They will work in conjuction with my Imperial Agents.
I have most of my Rogue Trader Imperial Guard done. I just need to base them all. Here is all my infantry, save my Storm Troopers, which I’ve kit-bashed to look like the 2nd ed. versions with the berets. I also have a lot of tanks.
I like to use color to indicate a type of magic that is used. The colors equate to a school of magic. It’s an amalgamation of Matt Wagner’s Mage and lightsaber color from Star Wars.
The very first Maynard and Grimm story. Way before they showed up in the Phineus comics. Just two of my backwaters characters I decided to throw together in a comic.
Alot of these bew minis are from Reaper. I’ll use them as PCs and NPCs for RPGs and some as Radical Ordo Xenos agents. These guys are nice and cheap and very cool to paint up.
This was the first story I did for Teen Wizard when I had launched it on it’s own site. It’s based on the Phineus issues characters from “Zombie Rat Uprising”.
This is the first color Phineus story. I did it initially as bonus content when I was signed with Wevolt. Ah, Wevolt. It had such great potential, then got bought up by Wowio and Platinum studios. My life as a contract webcomic artist was short lived as it all burned to the ground.
First up in February is Helltown Comicon at Helltown Brewery! This should be a fun time!
And I’ve applied to guest at PIE, which used to be PIX. I did PIX in the mid-aughts, until my need to work 2 jobs kept me fairly hermitted in the late teens.
This year, it’s back! I really hope i get in. It’s a great show!
