Sorry but this is still very work in progress but have to call it a night.
So I atleast wanted to show what I was building.

Its an Imperial guard fully inclosed attack copter.
Has Lascannon and Crack or Frag Missiles.... nice huh?

Anyways its work in progress alot of stuff is just sitting on just to take this photo.
But you should be able to alteast make out some of the details like full on landing gear and rotateing rotor blade.
You have the small wing pods with the missiles to show its an attack copter, etc.


So here you go.





side shot





back shot




Thanks.

GD, its good, but the Misslie rack sponsons need to be flipped, so the the flat edge is forward..
the rest looks pretty much awesome, as long as you sand down the tail... looks way to boxy so far...

[Ge. Stankov]

Got the idea from White Dwarf, I see.

It looks great!


Please paint this one and showcase it. I hope you're going to keep it!

Great job!

???WIP ??? What's that mean i've never really understood it

Great job on the copter ;D looks really terrific!

WIP stands for Work In Progress. ;D

Looks good GD, although... it seems more of an Ork style design to me. :-\

Perhaps if it was designed more like the Vulture or Valkrye.

[Ge. Stankov]

Well, now that you mention this, I do see your point, but I don't think there is much of a difference beyond turbines and curved wings...

I thought up a rule for this: Its a sentinel!

Multi laser, and hunter-killer missle. Only deifference is, it costs 30 points more becasue it ignores difficult and impassable terrain: its a skimmer! Also, more points for the fact it has multiple HK missiles...

[GreyDeath]

Thanks for the feedback.
The tail has now been sanded and alot more detail added.
The extra details are going on now.
And I went boxy on the tail because Look at the Russ Imperial guard are very boxy and I did not want to take that away from them.

Work in Progress.. sorry wip... I am still working on it.
Should have explained myself..

The missile racks are on as the model says to mount them...
And I looked just in case I was wrong at your flat side.. and there is no difference front to back? etc.
But I checked it out and its fine or the way I want them.
Thanks though.

Well as it it kit bashed and still mixed in parts and paint ya I see why it might be orky but it is pretty advanced and sweet to be an ork one.

Theirs are like open topped etc.

White Dwarf?
You lost me?

PPC sent me a photo of a chopper and said I bet I would like it.
And I did and built this...
So now white dwarf but cool.

Glad to see copters are popular right now...

Thanks everyone and some photos of it done coming soon.

And nope no paint ebay...

Just use it under the "Counts as" rule.

But have did you mess up on this one or something? The tail just sucks, the caonopy doesnt line up right and doesnt match or work.

Those puny visions slits are no good, it would look like it would fly into a tall ork or something. You might as wll go open cockpit, its more inline with the kind of crazy bastards the IG are, and then you can have fun doing custom work on the pilot.

[Jeff]

Love the cockpit and canopy but the IMO the tail needs to be longer and more areo dynamic.

But nice look overall.

Avor:
not 3 consecutive words made sense in that post. And be critisising and not a down right S.O.B

[Crisis 541]

Avor clam down. this is a site to talk about Tau not curse and insult poeple who really like doing this (me)

GreyDeath: the heli is great i have to say again. The Blades are a little low and close to the tail. You might want to shave off a little on the top of the tail. The front of the cocpit is a liitle too...blunt to be on a fast ship like a heli copter. BUt i can't wait until you get the kinks worked out ;D hope all goes well GD.
