Adeptis Arbites Aircar Kitbash
Designed to cruise over cities of the Imperium gathering intelligence about traitors, the Adeptus Arbites aircar can hear a whispered heresy from twenty klicks.
It is supported on three directional air jets with a rocket booster in the rear and has an abundance of listening devices. The pilot sits in the rear and the intelligence officer in the front.
It is lightly armed with twin linked lasrifles and a grenade launcher and is occasionaly required to support Arbites operations. This pilot has mounted a heavy bolter on the right hand side to give himself an edge.
This model was inspired by the good 'ole Rogue Trader days when we were inspired to knock out our own kitbashes to give unique equipment. Before everything in 40K became monetarised, rigid and standardised. I miss those days.
It's a Y-Wing! :)

I miss my deodorant stick tanks too!
It is indeed a Y wing hull.

ReplyDeleteGreat conversion and I agree with your point about the good old days.
Still waiting for the writ.
DeleteAn excellent piece of equipment that will help the arbites pick up the significant others of journalists.
ReplyDeleteWell done John !
And smash up their hard drives.
