Warhammer 40K Rhino APC - A big Sci-fi Tank thing!

From Apollo and Soyuz, to Gerry Anderson, Irwin Allen, Star Wars and Trek to Babylon 5, Battlestar Galactica and those strange, doe-eyed Japanese school girls...to any model kits you can think of, that only exists in imagination.

lol! They haven't been a fiver for a loooooooong time. This one is a pretty decent model though, which is ok as it was about £25-00.

Do you still play?
LoL, I still remember when you could buy a the box with either 3 Rhino's, 2 Land Raiders or 30 plastic "beaky" Space Marines for £10 each!
Ahhh, the old RTB-01 marines box set!!. I still have loads of them knocking about, problem is they look like children next to primaris!!
Hoping to return to modelling sometime this year!! :lol:

Preferred the look of the old "beakys', the Primaris marines to me resemble Thrud the Barbarian in power armour!

Nice work, and I agree with Shaun that it definitely looks a lot like an M-113. Cool beans.

Oh yes, much as I think the Primaris stuff is really good, model wise, I'm from the 'beaky' era, still have loads of them and use them when poss. It says something of the popularity of the mk.6 and it pointy helmet, that Tactical squad box sets still have at least one or two beaky helmets in the sprues.

I'm just catching up and that is one impressive interior!

The hazard paint on the doors really makes it for me.

Nice work!
