Mini of the month - Tanks for the memories Entry 10 by @captainhat.bsky.social Auliya #Nerdlings #MiniOfTheMonth

Command Razorback Auliya of the Arrakeen Jihad, a Space Marine Raxorback for the Black Templars chapter, built to 3rd Edition Warhammer 40,000 rules with a lascannon and twin-linked plasma guns; pictured here rearing out of the sands of Rakis, the desert planet where the Arrakeen recruits most of its Neophytes from the roaming Zensunni desert-dwellers of the Bedwine (known to the Imperial administration as the Fremen).

Command Razorback Auliya pictured here with Na'ib Kynes and his command squad, accompanied by the Emperor's Champion Duncan Idaho. Auliya in the Zensunni interpretation of the Imperial cult is the God-Emperor's handmaiden, she who sits at His left hand.

Right click and go to "open image in new window" to see this image in full detail. This image shows multiple views and detail shots of Auliya, such as the various weapons options that are available for her (including retrofitting as a Rhino), her fully painted interior, her Atreides battle-pennant and other added details.

Various images showing how Auliya was converted from a Sisters of Battle Exorcist. R-click and go to "open in new window" to see in full detail.

The hardest part of the conversion was the turret; the moulded-in Sister of Battle was removed and replaced with a Space Marine gunner. The turret sides had to be cut away and the turret enlarged to fit the Space Marine's wider shoulders and the weapons themselves were converted to fit the Space Marine loadout; the Exorcist can't take lascannons or twin plasma guns and doesn't come with them as options.

The extra armour kit was made from corrugated cardboard and initially glued on with PVA to provide a flat non-porous contact surface, then peeled off and reattached with superglue.

Parts list:

-Sisters of Battle Exorcist (3rd Edition) - Rhino hull, turret, hatch surrounds, banner pole, heavy bolters, multi-melta, TL plasma gun body (multi-melta)
-Space Marine Vehicle Accessory Sprue (3rd Edition) - Turret gunner body, arms & head, seeker missiles, pintle storm bolter, rear hatch cover
-Space Marine Land Raider kit - Lascannons
-Space Marine tactical squad (3rd Edition) - plasma pistols (TL plasma gun)
-Forge World Black Templar Rhino Doors
-Black Templar Accessory Sprue - glacis plate, Crusader seals, sword, sword icon, Black Templar icon on banner pole
-Space Marine Terminator sprue - 2x Crux Terminatus on rear door, scroll hangers
-Chaos Marine Vehicle Accessory Sprue - spiked iron halo
-Cardboard box (150gsm board, C-flute corrugated) - Extra Armour kit
-Space Marine Rhino - headlight - used as searchlight to accompany multi-melta
-Space Marine Bikers (2nd Edition plastic kit) - gunner's legs

Mini of the month - Tanks for the memories Entry 6 by @tammi.bsky.social Mr Rumbles, Hero of the Revolution!! And Keiko! #Nerdlings #MiniOfTheMonth

A close-up glamour shot of the gloriously pink Hero of the Revolution, Mr Rumbles, an armoured fighting vehicle with all-terrain tracks, extra armour, a large calibre heavy machine gun and cute little ears welded to his turret. His green sensor lens is bright, like his future, and he proudly wears the number 4 of his former unit - 4 The Revolution! Blurred by distance behind him is Keiko, pointing the way.

Among the rubble and ruins, Mr Rumbles, machine gun pointing up and forward, is alert and ready to follow the mission of his friend and companion at his side, Keiko! She has her arm out, showing the way, and looks fabulous in her pink jumpsuit that matches Mr Rumbles' armour plating! She carries a sub-machine gun and wears ear defenders with extra cat ears, just like her robot buddy! You guessed it, it was Keiko that welded those ears onto the turret of the broken AFV-4 and named him Mr Rumbles after she reactivated him.

A sad Mr Rumbles tilts his turret down as he realises the mission involves yet more death and destruction. Sure, he's a top-of-the-range armoured fighting vehicle, he was built for this, and Keiko seems happy when he's all BLAM-BA-BLAM-BA-BLAM and turning the Bad Guys into meat chunks, but isn't there more to life? Keiko hasn't even noticed he's sad.
Oh well.

A top-down view as Mr Rumbles and Keiko advance through the rubble heading to victory.

Mini of the month - Tanks for the memories Entry 5 by @grumpykiltpin.bsky.social Made From Girders #Nerdlings #MiniOfTheMonth

A scavenged Space Marine Rhino with a Whirlwind missile launcher has been pressed into service by a group of grots. The fact that it stopped working didn't stop them. They just added some big wheels and are have it dragged around by two enormous armoured beasts. It has been (badly) painted bright orange and blue.

Mini of the month - Tanks for the memories Entry 3 by @rat-bag.bsky.social a very mid entry #Nerdlings #MiniOfTheMonth

look it was a busy month and I didn’t have a ton of time so here’s me rebuilding a ww2 plane kit (a Corsair from airfix I think?) that I previously used for parts for other things then tore back off and rebuilt along with some other misc junk to bulk up the mid section and change the silhouette a bit. Also I’m so glad those luftwaffe decals from the wingtips I used didn’t show through. Picture 4 shows the model pre paint as proof it’s not QUITE as lazy as it looks

Mini of the month - Tanks for the memories Entry 4 by @tristanwelsh.bsky.social Maximum Goberdrive #Nerdlings #MiniOfTheMonth

A large red scratch built Grot Tank with a huge green goblin head for the turret. The tanks barrel is sticking out in place of it's nose and a large blue hat can be seen on top. The hat has a hinge near the top where the tip is opened up revealing a Grot with a large machine gun. On top of the hat is a Git holding on for dear life with a large artillery shell on top of it's head.

The tank is covered with many other Grots and Gitz. Some riding on the end of the barrel, others sticking out the aides of the tank with a variety of weapons. One is even hanging from the large ear of the goblin turret head. Two large boosters can be seen on the back of the tank. The whole thing is heavily weathered with chipping and rustball over.

The time is nearly perfect for a movie about the famously chaotic and dramatic 1976 production of Star Wars, starring Ewan McGregor as Alec Guinness and Hayden Christiansen as David Prowse.
