A couple of lessons learnt in retrospect for this kit, the sponsons and their weapons mounts are a poor fit, I could of done with a little plasti-crad insert to keep the heavy bolters/galting guns level as is they droop a little, meanwhile I should have painted the lascannon mount to completed BEFORE inserting the lascannon, I've now got a problem with paint being scratched off. These are'nt major problems but things I'll keep in mind when it comes to purchasing and building a second of these in the future.
Oh and of course as ever it seems the tracks were a pain! Oh how I loathe the Imperial Guard plastic track sprue! Of course it's easily solved in reality, I wont go over what has already been covered in this very useful Blog Article on Ultrawerke, which is well worth a read.

I sit here with mouth open. Wow. Wow. Wow.
Did I mention, "Wow"?
I'm really looking forward to the next step!
I usually hide the IG track mis-fit under some track Guards. It looks like they would fit on the Malcador which is what I plan to do when I eventually get one.
Pretty model though (as with all of your creations/projects)!
Thanks guys :)
Yeah the Track Guards would fit on the Malcador given it's standard width track and theres suffient space either side to mount em. You'd need to fiddle it around a bit though no doubt since it's not a standard size in terms of lengths, but that should'nt be too big a problem. You could then construct the tracks from the rear which would leave you with a half track gap on the join at the front of the flat section.
awesome job! Kudos to you!!
Thanks roger!
