Not been on here in a little while but have successfully built the hardest GW kit in the world the Spartan Tank. More specifically the version before they changed the design and molded it with the tracks on. I also made the mistake of trying to carry on with this when in a foul mood! That as we all know simply doesn't work!
Anyway here is a few pictures showing the tank at various stages including the track bodge I ended up doing. Once it is all painted and weathered I will cover up these issues. For anyone else attempting this version of the kit GOOD LUCK.....
God Bless the elastic bands and the stolen from the better half hair bands!
Major track issues stemming from the front not being positioned right (during in the night in question!)
Picked the forgeworld brass etch for this tank.
The next two photos show the tank in primer and me starting to lay down the shadows.
Genuinely hated this build so glad it is out the way now. This is not my current painting project but I will return to it in the next few months.
Thoughts on your experience with this kit would be interesting and also any good stories about when you should stop modelling might help!
Cheers
DOC Out!
