Painting the Chapter (Predator Tank)
Here we have the very first of Several Heavy Support choices in the Praetorian Marines’ arsenal: The Scorpian Battle Tank!
I really like the look of the Predator Tanks; simple yet cool, and bristling with Weaponry!
Praetorian Marine Scorpian Battle Tank:
Twin-linked Lascannon turret and Lascannon Sponsons.
=165 points
This is a straight-forward GW model with no changes, although the Lascannon sponsons have been greenstuffed on due to glue proving ineffective!
A full Lascannon array makes for a powerful, long-ranged threat to anything in your opponant’s army!
So here we go! How much did this model cost?
Predator Tank (Bought used from eBay) = £14.02
Green Stuff = £0.00 (already covered on previous models!)
Dettol (for stripping paint!) = £0.00
Total = £14.02 (Fairly straight-forward this time :p)
Total cost from Games Workshop (new) = £35
Total Saving = £20.98
A 60% saving!
Well I actually managed to bash this one out pretty quickly. The most time-consuming part was stripping the original paint-job from the model!
Stay tuned for more, coming soon!
I was never a fan of the old second ed predator, so when the 4th ed version was released I loved it (though as you say, the sponsons do not hang easily). A lovely paint job on a great tank. Keep up the good work
Cheers Ben, glad you like it and thanks for looking!
