Personally I was not a great fan of it, and I didn’t really understand why it won.

Then I saw this picture…

Now I understand, just look at the detail.

Yes this was a well deserved winner.

Forgeworld Space Marine Thunderhawk

his is a Forgeworld Space Marine Thunderhawk from their Display Cabinets at GamesDay 2005.

Forgeworld Space Marine Thunderhawk Gunship. This model is one of the Forgeworld Display models. When you see it for "real" you realise how large the model is. I am not a great fan of the model, however I do quite like the Thunderhawk Transporter.

I am not a great fan of the Thunderhawk, it just doesn’t look right. Though I quite like the Transporter. I think it is the big gun on the top!

Forgeworld Imperial City Walls

This is the Forgeworld Imperial City Walls from the Forgeworld Display at GamesDay 2005.

You can see this is a huge piece of scenery, those are long barreled autocannons on the walls.

The entrance is certainly imposing and an Imperial BaneBlade can fit through those doors.

I do like this, but is it worth £625? Well from what I have heard they have been flying off the *shelves* at Forgeworld. This model took something like twelve days to make and paint.

I want two!
