| Taxi! |
So, barring a few touch-ups that I'd missed until reviewing these photos, the BattleTaxi for my Sternguard is finished. Given the status of the Sternguard as a 1st Company squad, and role as ranged fire support, a Lascannon-armed Razorback seems like a natural transport option for them, and as a first company vehicle I took the opportunity to "bling" it out a bit with extra scrollwork and badges, to reflect the status of the troops that it carries. I've also got a completed Rhino Chassis already (my Predator) so there was less time fretting over which colours worked in which combinations.
Anyway, more pictures under the cut.

Front View - I try to keep the weathering to fairly low on the vehicle
and around the natural "spatter" areas, where possible. |

| Turret Detail and Top Hatch. |
 |
Rear Shot - I didn't put any detail on the back ramp because I couldn't
think of anything that looked good that wasn't repeated elsewhere. |

| General (if overly dark, dammit) front shot |
 |
| Top Shot |
 |
Left Side Detail - I've tried to weather the doors around the top too,
as this is where they'd hit the ground when open. |
Nice work. You're right on track with the weathering (no pun intended). You've got to think about where it would be on the model and apply it there. You can't just go putting it all over the place.

cheers :) this thing was fun to work on all over, actually, and i really didn't want to mess up the detail by slathering it with mud and oil.
ReplyDeletethough having another vehicle already done to park next to it and make sure the "look" was the same was a huge help.
Nice work on the freehand on the scrolls and hatches, it really gives a sense of identity as a Blood Raven's vehicle.
