(It IS better to be lucky than good...)
You've heard me reference the copious amounts of random bits that I've acquired over time, and it paid dividends again today. I knew I had a few dreadnaught bits in the lot that I'd bought, but I had no idea how useful they would be for my latest eBay rescue.

Lack of updates
(excuses, excuses)
I've been a little delinquent in posting updates to my projects over the last week. Well, let's be honest, I've been delinquent about working on any of my projects for the last week and a half! I'm sure the sad, miserable story of my life is of little concern, but more importantly, I'm back at work on my rebuild of the Land Raider Terminus Ultra.

Rogue Trader Land Raider - FINALLY
Well, I guess patience pays off. After kicking around and finally getting the good deal on the Land Raider Terminus Ultra that I'm repairing, I kept looking for a Rogue Trader-era Land Raider. Fortunately I managed to score one for about $40 after shipping.

Repairing the Land Raider Terminus Ultra pt 3
(Your Magnets and you...)
As I await my Crusader Upgrade kit to arrive, I spent some time rebuilding the weapon sponsons for the Lascannons. Most of my brainpower was devoted to figuring out how to mount the twin-cannon sponsons without fabricating a new rotating mount. A quick touch-up coat of black to cover the areas that weren't painted by the original builder and we were ready for the mounts.

Repairing the Land Raider Terminus Ultra pt 2
(Sometimes you have to break it to fix it)
Since I'm done gloating over my $37 eBay find, it is time to get down to work.

Pre-Heresy Predator pt 1
(or how NOT to save money on eBay)
In the process of getting a good deal on the bundle of Mk6 minis, I found the same seller had a Predator Destructor, with the Pre-Heresy Styling

The vehicle is in great condition, it just needs a suitable paint job, so perhaps I'll actually get around to "finishing" this one since it is almost done for me!

Repairing the Land Raider Terminus Ultra pt 1
(or "its just a simple fix")
So my latest "quick" project just arrived in the mail. Quite a deal really, a Land Raider Terminus Ultra for $37, shipping included. Of course the cheap price was due to the weapons being broken off of their mounts, but that won't be too hard to fix.
