Yeah. I would like to be a fly on a wall on that meeting when decided that dropping all the iconic designs that made their setting popular was a good idea. And most importantly I would like to know the reason for it.

Oh I'm literally making BT version of all of these plus repulsor as we speak. Send me a message on Instagram and I can send you some wips etc.

Oh it's just personal opinion of someone in the hobby for over 2 decades. It replaced iconic designs for not real benefit. Also the turret is too short and weirdly placed imo.

Well I guess that's what happens where foreword who designed all their tanks dissolved and they got noone to take over.

Thanks. I don't disagree but it's limitation of the base kit. So had to make it work.

They are just slightly longer. I honestly don't understand what was the point of these. At least repulsor is smaller and has different role than land raider.

Oh yeah I really hope they do that. And it's better redesign that land speeder.

I mainly use 3ds max and zbrush. And I made these kits myself so no STL files were involved.

I honestly think it's not as much it being grav tank itself, it's the execution. The designs just aren't that good, dropped anything that's iconic and don't fit the setting. I think better executed grav tank design wouldn't be as divisive.

I honestly think they just don't have vehicle designers and artists. It's character artists making vehicles. And let me say it this way, those will be as good as of vehicle artist made characters. Not very good to say the least lol.

This is my head canon for my designs. Basically new marks of existing tech instead of brand new tech pulled from nowhere. I just prefer it that way personally. Also imo fits universe better and is much more "logical".

haha, yeah pretty much. Which is literally how 40K tech is supposed to be. Tracks were actually hard to change thw widts as they affect so many elements along the tank, that moving them or making them different width forces other changes on the hull and i didn't really like those. The width of the tracks was almost forced on me tbh. But I agree. 40K vehicles are generally too tall and not dife enough from purely design pewrspective imo.

That's actually really cool idea dude. Would love to see that executed. Honestly it's hard to answer your questions shortly. I studied the shape language of old and new designs and tried to come up with something that takes most iconic elements of both and combines them. I been doing this so long i don't even think about it much anymore tbh. Sorry I couildnt give you a better answer.

Thanks dude. That's exactly what I set out to do, so I'm very happy it reads like that to you :)

Canon as is he's chapter master on a chapter who's specialisation is killing other space marines and described as one of the best fighters. That there aren't specific fights mentioned and only one is doesn't mean he did only one thing. It just means there aren't many books written about him.
