55 in total when I've finished! still three chimeras, hydras, basilisks, griffons and Super Heavy to finish off.
Backed up by 50 SL, and nearly a hundred Kasrkin.
If thats not enough, my Inquisitorial Force is 3000 points!

jasevx - January 25, 2008 11:01 AM (GMT)
The ebay bank! on average I've spent a tenner per tank, tho ten have been donations due to write offs, and I've rebuilt them.
AC on a budget!

Easy E - January 25, 2008 11:09 AM (GMT)
Nice, can I get a closer look of the Reccie tank with the radar on the turret. The one with the Salamanders, but isn't a Salamander.
I need to get my Regiment posted in all it's glory one day too. A very inspiring shot.
Sotek - January 25, 2008 12:03 PM (GMT)
Please excuse me while I go and sit in a corner all huddled up and start rocking back and forth saying something along the lines of "so many tanks" repeatedly.
But seriously those be some good tanks you got there, three thumbs up! :P

Not so much "Rolling" as "Rattling" Thunder!
I have decided that with three swappable Skelly Tank Commanders, my Drogan Armour will double as an extention to my Apoc Army. Still not enough to take on your wee force but it is growing!
(I know, there are few unfinished paint jobs in there! - I'm working on it!)
TheGrizz - January 25, 2008 02:40 PM (GMT)
You know, I used to be impressed when I saw my mate Dave's Armoured Company... which at the time was around about 9 or so tanks...
Those though... damnit people, stop making my jaw hit the floor, it's painful...
Very nice work Jase and Digits!

Makes my 12 feel inadequate...
:(
Edit:
jasevx - January 25, 2008 04:48 PM (GMT)
your wife says shes happy with it tho?
To be honest Dave, with the superheavies, you'd win in a slog, great line up!
Digits - January 25, 2008 05:08 PM (GMT)
Not so sure mate! Interesting to find out though if we ever get this Apoc game!
Still a ways to go yet. I still need a few tanks for them! (including one more BB)
Tinners - January 25, 2008 05:16 PM (GMT)
I would take pictures of mine, but 3 tanks ( 2unpainted) and 20 infantry is a very boring AC... One day it will be finished...one day....
7 more tanks to go then I'll take some pics.
Tepok - January 25, 2008 08:32 PM (GMT)
Digits - January 25, 2008 08:55 PM (GMT)
WOW!! Nice army Tepok! Very.....red! lol
jasevx - January 25, 2008 09:08 PM (GMT)
Really love the work you've done on these, just superb!
Rictus - January 27, 2008 01:41 AM (GMT)
I would post my Militia Armoured Battleforce up....but it would look kinda pathetic.
Death Korp - January 27, 2008 01:57 AM (GMT)
No it wouldn't...it would be an imsparation to me :)

Tony88 - January 27, 2008 11:52 AM (GMT)

Mine so far, unpainted i know.
Digits - January 27, 2008 12:18 PM (GMT)
I've noticed a lot of people leave the tracks off. Does it really make painting any easier? I've always found it quicker to put them on when biulding as I've found plastic glue to ruin new paintwork
Nice lot of tanks though!
Death Korp - January 27, 2008 12:43 PM (GMT)
If you don't put too much on, you should be ok :)

Tepok - January 27, 2008 02:10 PM (GMT)
I've tried both, and IMO its esaier and quicker to just leave them on..

The AC's on this forum are all awesome. It would be fantastic to have a shot of all the ACs from here together.
I find that its easier to paint the tracks on the tank, just do them first of all after undercoating and then you will be fine. Or at least leave any weathering of them til after the main bodywork is done because they you can weather the tank and tracks at the same time =mucho realism! But you tread-heads all know this!

I'm sure we could photoshop something like this some day...I'll post my own soon enough, but it pales in comparison to these obscenely obese armoured companies!

Tinners - January 28, 2008 12:32 PM (GMT)
Somebody has too much money, thats around £650 or so, or if he got them off ebay £460 or so...crazy
dave38x - January 28, 2008 08:42 PM (GMT)
what would people say to a tau AC? i think the idea would open opportunities for more usage of the Forgeworld turrets etc. That said, i need to get some cash before i can carry out this crackpot plan.
Digits - January 28, 2008 08:49 PM (GMT)
Tau AC's look really smart! I wouldn't fancy painting them myself like, but really smart!
jasevx - January 28, 2008 08:49 PM (GMT)
Well It would make a great hunter cadre, go for it!
3vilX - January 28, 2008 09:03 PM (GMT)
jeebus people! I have, like... *counts* 5 tanks...
Jase, what's the command vehicle count as? leman russ exterminator?
dave38x - January 28, 2008 09:19 PM (GMT)
now, to raise the large sums of cash required... ebay and inept 10 year olds may come into play...
Lt.Gregor - January 28, 2008 09:59 PM (GMT)
Dear lord I thought I was one with alot of tanks, me and 17 leman russes, but man you guys mark me look like a fool.
Lord Commander Eidolon - January 29, 2008 01:34 AM (GMT)

but beware the (vast)majority will be unpainted lol
