"...With the ability to call in artillery support and heavier armour." |
Resultantly, all the tanks' turrets were super-glued in place and independently housed upon a plastic 30mm x 40mm rectangular stand. The trio were then undercoated with some "Vallejo" Surface Primer, treated to two layers of "Vallejo" USA Olive Drab, and washed with "Citadel" Reikland Fleshshade. Furthermore, they were given a dry-brush of (more) "Vallejo" USA Olive Drab and had their wheel tracks treated to a combination of "Vallejo" Gunmetal and "Citadel" Nuln Oil.

Alongside my refreshingly straightforward tank project, I have finished another (much more time-consuming) 28mm plastic Space Marine by "Games Workshop" from their Warhammer: The Horus Heresy – Age of Darkness boxed set. This multi-part figure has been assembled wearing MK VI armour and will form part of a (second) ten-man strong tactical squad for my five-hundred-point Sons of Horus traitor force.

The Space Marine's power tubes, "anti-personnel ballistic weapon", and equipment were later treated to a combination of "Vallejo" Gunmetal and "Citadel" Nuln Oil. I then gave the miniature's right shoulder-pad a single coat of "Vallejo" Heavy Sienna, before applying some "Vallejo" Gold and a splash of "Citadel" Agrax Earthshade to it. These areas were later highlighted using some additional touches of "Vallejo" Gold along the edges, iconography and rivets.
As with all my Sons of Horus I lastly applied some "Scalecolor" Speed Metal to the figure's eye lenses. These were subsequently given a lick of "Citadel" Flesh Tearers Red and tidied up with some "Citadel" Abaddon Black. Lastly, I applied a couple of the many decals found on the "Games Workshop" Sons of Horus Legion transfer sheet onto the model's bare shoulder-pad and right thigh armour plate.
