Hi I've just added a couple of pictures of a GZG vehicle with some extra add ons for use with our Scrunt Inquisitors army. I shall be showing a picture of it painted later. I've also been working on some destroyed city terrain which I hope to get pictures of and add to the workbench very soon.

What do you think?

Looks good. Don't care much for the banner, but otherwise I like it a lot. Got any close-ups of the crew?

Another one not that keen on the banner. But otherwise most frothingy

How about a big fuck off plough/'dozer blade on the front for scraping up the burnt leftovers?

YEAH!!!!
frothing frothing frothing

I'd drop the banner, it just doesn't fit really, but love Dags idea for the 'dozer blade!!!!!

Hurry up and paint it Bob, mate as those Commando's will be attacking soon.

That's cool.But between the two "turrets",there's a detail that looks like a big button to me.Like if I push it,the toy is going to separate or something but that could be just me. doolally Otherwise,I like it but I'm a sucker for your sci-fi dwarves.Wink

echo the comments re the banner. Otherwise very cool.

A few close ups would be nice.

Cool

A big ol' dozer would indeed look awful cool.

The banner is too much Warhamster. If you want a banner, put it over the vehicle, like WW2 vehicles, for a more hard-SF look. More used as identification from flyers and not battlefield targetting.

GZG being small 28/25mm looks just right for the scruntses.
I like the other add-ons.

Never thought of using GZG for space-dwarfs... Very Happy

Yep that's the starter button, the commander has to jump up and down on it a few times to get the vehicle going Laughing
But seriously GZG do some really interesting vehicles and they definately work sizewise with my scrunts.
Many of you have mentioned you're not keen on the banner and I'm glad you said that, as I was unsure myself, but you know what its like when you've got an idea and you keep going at it even if you've got doubts, anyway you've confirmed I should get rid of the banner.
The shovel on the front idea is brilliant, I have been considering some kind of vehicle for shovelling up mutant remains and I have an Old Crow vehicle that might be just the thing, I'll take some pictures of close ups of crew and of the other vehicle with shovel and post later today.
Finally, Bruenor can't wait to see those commandos, the scrunts think they're a bunch of pussies and will get their arses kicked, little do they know there's a back up in the form of robots to fight alongside the commandos. Very Happy
I'm hoping to set up the big battle diaorama this weekend and get pictures posted here, when I've done it.
thanks everyone for all your imput, speak to you later cheers Bob
