As part of Duelling Paintbrushes 2: Mexican Paintoff, I have decided to build myself a Rat Tank. From a Vulcan 1/35 Vickers light tank MK. VI. And doom wheel parts. And a generous sprinkle of Warpstone.
Pics when they exist.

Got a start in on the rat tank. It'd be a lot quicker if the suspension didn't use real springs...
Anyway, now that that's done things should speed up.
Hopefully.
Have a picture anyway.

Heh - like it.  :thumbsup:

Those 30s/early WWII tanks and AFVs are very Warhammer/Orc-tech arn't they?

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

"Mommy? I don't want to outside to play where such wicked tanks are"!
I think as a (former) Infantry squad leader I would call for the anti-tank people and form a hasty advance to the rear when seeing any of these wicked things coming!  :o

Fortunatley for Clan Skitterklaw, Warhammer Fantasy does not feature any specialised anti-tank weapons.
Unfortunately, it counts as a doomwheel, and there are plenty of things which can deal with that.

Progress on the rat tank!
It's got semi-individual track links, which is good because it's not as insanely fiddly as individual. Plus I only managed to loose one small section, so it's got ALMOST complete tracks!

My dear doctor, I believe you are confusing your savage tribes; it is the Orcs of the old world who say 'Waaaagh!' while the loathsome rat men and their vile kind are known to utter such phrases as 'yes-yes' and 'die-die' or 'cunning-smart rat-thing!'
I refer you, of course, to the seminal work 'Loathsome Rat men I Have Know' by Albrecht of Nuln, published in the imperial year 2106.

Should be able to start painting the rat tank tomorrow. Just a few minor detailing tweaks in the morning...
