Grey Knights MkIIb Land Raider

Grey Knights can use Land Raiders, when I first started putting this force together I knew that if I was going to get a Land Raider it would have to be the Forgeworld MkIIB Land Raider.

This is the Forgeworld display model.

I did get one in the end at GamesDay 2006.

As well as the plastic Land Raider parts you get the following resin pieces. These are the main sponsons and hull structures.

This is the rear plate and replacement exhausts.

These are the lascannon weapons.

Though you don’t get much in the way of instructions, but you do get doors.

Now I made a mistake, you get a set of doors and I (foolishly) asked them to replace the supplied eagle doors with Grey knight Land Raider doors. Now what I didn’t realise was that the side doors on the sponson are not the same size as the Land Raider doors, but are in fact the same size as Rhino side doors. So the Grey Knight doors are too big!

Mark IIB Land Raider

This is the Mark IIB pre-heresey Land Raider.

It is part of Mike Sharpe’s superb Space Wolves army, which was on show at GamesDay 2006.

The model is available from Forgeworld and is a very nice kit. I have one but have not yet started it. It is based on the plastic Land Raider kit, and the model is very similar to the Epic Land Raider.

Now I see why it won…

This is the painted miniature which won the Golden Demon 2005 Slayer Sword and this my slightly blurred photograph of it.

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.
