…but for a little touch-up here and there on the paintwork and some dust added (I'm also converting a seated gunner for the rear compartment)… picture picture picture picture picture picture

Oh, the Emperor will be pleased! That is a stunning job and the figures look the business manning the beast as well….

Neat looking vehicle, superbly painted. Who makes them? Scale?

Haloclix model?

Mcfarlane toys Halo Warthog… link built and pre-painted, plastic model. Excellent detail – fits nicely with 28/30mm figs.

Very nicely done! How did you do the seated legs? Have you considered putting a gunner on the pintle-mount? (I'll now have to hunt one or two of those down…)

Very nice, thanks for sharing the pics.

seated legs are converted from Sentinel pilot (torso removed)- jacket skirts and cargo pockets sculpted with putty. I'm in the process of converting the gunner – he'll be sitting on the large tarp just behind the gun.

really sick looking, great job

Awesome stuff! Makes me want to put a crew in my Warthog! Is the tarp scratch-built?

The prices for the Warthog online are pretty inflated. Here it is for $6.99: link They are quite nice in person.

I've got two I bought off of eBay. If you're patient you can get them relatively cheap. Mine were $13 USD and $11 USD each, including shipping.

tarp is a Pig Iron metal casting from the spares box… thanks for all the kind comments!

I just snagged myself a set of 3 Halo vehicles -Warthog, Ghost & Chopper for £9.99 GBP + P&P c/o Ebay.co.uk.

I so stole this idea. Just got a Warthog for $2.99 USD off feE-bay and placed a Bitz order at The Warstore. Thanks for a great idea.
