A little more progress on the German train last night. Card mockup of the Kommandowagen shell, sitting on top of a test chassis made from plastic I-beam, brass point bearings, and Hornby metal axles.

Good stuff.
No more painting to report as I've lost my mojo for that. I have done another photoshoot however.

Trains looking really nice.
Would like to do a 40k version, possibly a bit like those ww1 german tanks on rails, but, my table is a snowscape, which makes tracks seem a bit pointless ...

I'm with angelwing on painting.
Got the 10 slaanesh chosen done, then tried to do 5 slaanesh marines and thought, "you know, if I wasn't doing this, I could clean the toilet", so I did.

I've got some of those small German WW2 train tanks, a Panzer Steyer, in 1/25 scale, would be easy to rescale them to 1/48 or something similar to fit 40k. If you're interested I can rescale one and send it to you. Comes in two versions, one with an PzIV turret, and one without a turret.

Nothing wrong with tracks in snow either - there's a Trans-Siberian railway for instance, and there were plenty of trains running in snow in Russia, Poland, Norway etc in WW2. With a big snowplough at the front it'll be more reliable than trying to drive along roads or cross-country in a vehicle, tracked or non-tracked. :)

I'm struggling with painting at the moment but it's not lack of motivation - it's the amount of stuff I have to do for deadlines and the lack of time to do painting in!

If you would, cheers!

Wot a load of Vladivostoks!
I'm more concerned with how it will look (the tracks) as they will be basically buried in snow.

Ok. So the Tau I started in the second qtr log have been put aside so I can paint my DA's from Dark Vengance. Nearly finished the terminators and made a start on all the rest. Will pop up some pics when I get back to a broadband connection.

Not sure if its applicable but ...

I've been getting my slaanesh out (dooble entendres a gogo) getting them sorted and painted for the new codex.

I put the last 4 of 10 chosen on the table and got them done a while back.
Started on my plague marines and found 6 slaaneshi chosen I did about 4 years ago and forgot about entirely!
Result!

I can now gather 3x6 sonics, 2x6 chosen and 1x10 ccw+bolt pistol geezers.
