The interior was heavily drybrushed with Leadbelcher, then given a wash of Nuln oil, and then highlighted with Runefang Steel. I suppose in the gaming world, the key is “does it have correct overall color? Macragge Blue? Ah, you must be Ultramarines.” The rest is pretty much up to you. I also began to embrace the simple fact that this was not a real object. If you’re not sure where something fits, try the logical options. However, I realized that like a Gunpla, it’s almost impossible to assemble this thing wrong. But the instructions are pretty much “stick this generally here”. Coming from an aircraft background, I was looking for color call outs and detailed shots of assembly. The primary drawback I saw to the kit was what seemed like an extraordinary dearth of instructions. I started by building just the interior sections, and painting them in various Citadel colors. I did not have any of the Citadel primer, but I did spray it chaotically, so hopefully that counts.
Not Bandai fit, but darn close.įirst, everything was primed with Badger’s Stynylrez Black Primer. It’s not overly complicated, the parts count is in the “very low” range, and it all just fit. However the numbers shake out, I can say I really, really, REALLY enjoyed putting this vehicle together. I never was very good at the maths though, so I may be wrong on the numbers anyway. So I can’t decide if I’m halfway complete, using a standard of weight and volume, or if I should go strictly by the elements of the kit, at which point I’d only be 1/7th complete. The Land Speeder Storm is completed, but the figures are simply primed, waiting for paint. The kit consists of the vehicle, and six figures. By the time heavier vehicles are available and most of the map scouted by the player, Land Speeders would have likely become obsolete.I’m not sure exactly what stage of completion I’m at with my Games Workshop Space Marine Land Speeder Storm. Despite its quick speed and high damage output, they are highly vulnerable to anti-vehicle weaponry. As a result of its high speed and jumping ability, Land Speeders can make great Scouting units and can even perform hit and run attacks against isolated infantry squads.
If the enemy has no anti-vehicle capacity, even having several of these can deal significant damage to the opponent when used in surprise attacks behind the front lines. The Land Speeder is a light vehicle that can jump (like Assault Marines) and deal out a good amount of anti-infantry fire.
At full charge, the Land Speeder will have two jumps available, requiring 90s to fully recharge from empty.
