If you have looked at my Grey Knights Landspeeder you will realise that I am attempting to paint a Grey Knights force which goes beyond the listings in the DaemonHunters Codex. What I am trying to do is to create a Grey Knights force (using the Space Marine Codex) and then using a DaemonHunters force as allies.

Having constructed my Razorback and added Grey Knights iconography I gave the model a black undercoat. The next stage was the basecoat and for that I am using the Tausept Ochre Foundation Paint as a basecoat. So why is it brown? I blogged about this back in 2007.

The next stage will be adding more of the basecoat.

After looking at my Grey Knights Razorback I decided it needed a little more iconography to make it more Grey Knights than just plain vanilla Space Marine, so I added more icons and purity seals.

Some to the main weaponry and some to the back door.

Next stage is a black undercoat.

This was the last blog update on the Razorback, so since then this is what I have done.

The basic Rhino kit comes with two different doors, one relatively blank and the other with steps (or ladder) on. I decided to use a spare blank door from my Repressor and use two blank doors. I added a brass Grey Knights symbol from the Forgeworld Grey Knights brass etching and a resin purity seal. When I was editing the pictures for the web, I noticed that I had inadvertently glued one of the symbols upside down! I therefore had to remove it from the door, turn it round and stick it down. It did not come off too easily, but I am glad I spotted it now rather than when I was painting (or worse when I had finished) the model.

I added a resin frontal armour plate from the Forge World Inquisitor Rhino Doors (having used the other resin side doors on my Repressor.

I added a few more purity seals. You can see that I also added the doors with the brass etchings on them.

You can see on this shot the upside down brass symbol.

I think it needs more symbols, seals and icons.

One model I got last Christmas was a Forgeworld Razorback the one with the much bigger turret, which I much prefer over the plastic kit version that you get in the shops. As it is only £2 more now, I think the Forgeworld version is much better value for money.

Though you would get some spare weapon parts with the plastic version…

I constructed the main weaponry of the Razorback, the twin-linked Lascannons. This went together fine once I had enlarged the holes in the weapon mount turret.

I constructed the Rhino, I wasn’t going to detail or paint the inside, so I left that as was. I also left off the frontal plate and the doors.

It went together fine and I checked that the Lascannon turret fitted the turret ring.

Next stage will be to add the Grey Knights detailing and doors.
