Well, for the 'drive me closer' meme to work, there needs to be a sword to do hitting!

And...done. Lord Solar proxy for my guard army, along with his aide and...ah...'appropriated' staff car (Imperial Navy folk, look away now). #nerdlings
Lord Solar in a rusty Imperial ground car, on his way to inspect the lines. Or engage the enemy. Or look majestic as heck while going very fast in the opposite direction.

I feel it is important to state that neither occupant is a member of the navy. #nerdlings

Broom broom. Finally getting some colours down. #nerdlings
A very rusty, battered old staff car.

Think that's all for the rust effects on the staff car. #nerdlings

Stowage! Gear, gun, crate of assorted Amasec and Joylick, some tasty vittles. It's not all bad being Lord Solar. Or his aide for that matter. #nerdlings #warhammercommunity
Kitbashed staff car made from...so many different kits that count has been lost. Now with all the kit and supplies an Imperial officer could need. Kitbashed staff car made from...so many different kits that count has been lost. Now with all the kit and supplies an Imperial officer could need.

just a few more gun crew to go. Then on to the poor bloody infantry! #nerdlings
Many, many kitbashed heavy weapons teams, field guns and artillery pieces!

Alright, let's see what I can do with this. It's been lurking in my stash for years. #gunpla

Slowly fixing the miscast areas and replacing details...but it is slow going. #nerdlings

A week of drilling, pinning, clamping, heating and general reshaping later and...I'm starting to see something vaguely Thunderbolt shaped. #nerdlings

Nat King Cole sang it best. " Straighten up and fly right

This thing is an absolute Greek tragedy of a model kit. Every single part warped or miscast in some fashion. But, even so...it shall be built.
Something marketed as a model kit, but is in fact a trap for the unwary. Picture of the major parts of a Forgeworld Thunderbolt fighter. Allegedly.

Just realised I forgot to post the finished article. These things are a joy to skate with now!

Still very happy with my Warhound, and the silly, silly base that includes a hand laid parquet floor.

New plates have arrived, and joy of joys, I do not need to bugger about drilling new holes to mount them.
A pair of nylon Sure Grip Rock plates in white. The miracle that is a new pair of plates that actually match the mounting points on the boot.

Post mortem complete. Aside from the actual wheels, everything else is going in the bin. Eugh.
Close up of some blue roller skate wheels and very, very crappy bearings. A bafflingly bad rigid plastic skate plate. Awful bushings and sketchy as all heck trucks.

These are, without a doubt, the WORST skates I've ever used. Going to rip them apart tonight to find out why and see if I can upgrade them.
A pair of very pretty, but very crappy white and blue roller skates.
