I finished my
Khurasan Lander this weekend. I'm pleased with how it turned out. It is a very good model, in my opinion. I hope my paint job has done it justice.

Bay door open, turrets in the background. |
I used some old 40K Imperial Guard decals I had around. They add a little extra detail and give the piece some character. This will be a nice centerpiece model for my Earth Force Marines army.
Some on the table shots:

...while the Lander provides excellent covering fire with it's two tri-barrel turrets. |

I painted the windows in gloss coat for some shine. I like the effect. |

The Lander prepares to lift as soon as the Marines are clear. |

The troop bay is left to establish a hard point on the LZ. |
I now have two viable forces for
Gruntz 15mm or for THW's
5150: Star Army. I should be able to develop some scenarios using my Khurasan Space Demons and my Rebel Minis Earth Force Marines. I also have a good supply of desert world terrain. I will get a game in soon and will post as soon as I do.
Until next time, carry on!
Great job dude it looks suitably impressive!
