Id say get some small bits of plasticard so you can finish up the middle. There's supposed to be three bars in the middle as I remember.

Also, the thing is massive compared to the marine, I know its a marine and all, but I dont think S4 works like that. Perhaps put it wherever you were going to originally. Unless youre going to say your Inquisitor started using balsawood iconography.

But Strength 4 is just in-game terms, an ork can rip a human in 2 pieces with ease, but Str 3 doesn't allow that now does it?

Anyways, I think a marine can carry that thing without any problem, BUT it looks cumbersome.

Not bad, be sure to post how it comes out when it's painted. Though like Kento said, there are three bars in the middle not just one.

Looks pretty good. But on a random note, is it spelled gray or grey, for I've seen it spelt both ways.

ya i know about the three bars when i was cutting it out one of the bars broke so i chopped them off i thing it looks fine without the other two bars,

UPDATE


i finished painting it last night I'm going to take a pic of it when i get off work tomorrow, oh and i solved the problem of it breaking if it were moved around a lot, i popped the hatch off the tank so i can remove it when i travel

Tell me a book or fluff bit where a boy does that to a human and not a nob or boss.

Anyways, the thing is bigger than the marine, and the imperium seems to have this fetish for metal. It just looks odd and cumbersome and wouldve made sense being mounted like he originally planned on doing.

Do I look like a walking lexicon? D;

But I belive it's in the Fantasy fluff, and the fantasy orcs and 40K orks are the same species (known from the thick new rulebook where the old ones accidently brings spores to the old world), I belive it was explained in the former Fantasy rulebook in the fluff explanation of the orcs, not too sure if it was there, but I'm 100% sure I've read it somewhere in a GW book.

Anyways, back to topic? o:

It may look fine, but it doesn't look right to someone who cares about their story.

Could always compensate by painting it like there are 3 bars.

That was on topic. The games have different stat representations, and the 40k/fantasy connection has been retconned out.

So more identifiably on topic, the thing looks ridiculous to be handheld by a marine, especially with how thin the bar is.


OP - just get f bits of plasticard and slap 'em on the middle so it looks like an Inq "I", dont be lazy.
