[40K][Model] Drop pods

heyo,

borrowed a copy of the new SM codex & would like some suggestions for DIY
drop pods. I remember an old Citadel Journal article, but IMO they looked
arse!

Also, does anybody like the Deathwind upgrade? I just can't get my head
around the limitations of a 12" BS 2 weapon, even if it does get more
chances to fire due to the Machine Spirit.

cheers,

For the card knock off, do a search for gobstyks, it's in their
projects section.

Alternately, take a bottle of the generic Ny-Quil, and flip the bottle
upside down. Add fins The bottle is triangular, which looks sci-fi, and
the threads on the bottle become the rocket exhaust.

It was, but you have to email them now to request it. I've got the PDF
kicking around on my PC at home if they don't send it out to you quickly
enough 😉

Email info@gobstyks.co.uk and ask for the How to Build Drop Pods project
PDF.

Just put my first one together - I didn't think it was going to turn out so
big! I need to do 6 or 7 more... and make sure I play on a big table 😉

Remember, if you're printing out the templates - particularly in
PDF format, you should be able to easily alter the size. IIRC - PDF
format has a feature that allows one to adjust the percentage size at
which the file prints out. Try downscaling it by 15% and see if that
make the size more to your liking.

Hope that helps,

Myrmidon
