Skullhamma Battle Fortress





First let me apologise for the photo quality.

This was a difficult model to photograph as it is highy-detailed but large so getting all the bits in focus was a challenge.

It is a more or less canon Skulhamma with special Kannon, lobba, and two twin-linked big shootas in the pods. I have added the two optional Supa-Rokkits and also an AA mount in the form of twinn-linked big shootas in a can on the turret (from an old scorcha kit).

This is my warbosses personal vehiclen for my Kult of Speed so it has his warbike on a crane on the side. You can see a Mek making a few adjustments. The tank is equipped with straphangers (yes, I was a London commuter). The turbos are from an Airfix Robogear kit.

The weathering uses MIG Rust and concrete powders, as well as my usual Tamiya sticks. The concrete has to be put on AFTER you varnish the model - I used PVA glue.

I tried to make the finished product interesting by adding customised detail on every surface.

  2. I love those supa-rokkits. They look like they're ready to blast off into the sky.

    Thanks. It looks better in the flesh, so to speak, than photos.

    The rokkits are off the Stompa model. I tend to swap things around.
