13th Armoured Division Sable Knights - Commander Glofski’s Squadron
Commander Glofski’s Leman Russ WIP
I now remember why I hadn’t used this kit in previous projects. I’d picked up the old style Leman Russ a few years ago in a job lot on eBay not realising that parts were missing or broken on the sprew. Nonetheless I much prefer the old 1994 kit to the more modern version as there it allows much more customisation. With the help of my bits box, e.g. locating enough track pieces and the odd wheel, the build was pretty straightforward.
Glofski’s Leman Russ WIP. The banner comes from the OOP Bretonnian knights set with the fleur de lys top replaced with the eagle crest from a knight’s helm. This hopefully maintains the idea that the tank division belongs to the Sable ‘Knights’. The turret is from Forgeworld but needed some attention to damage on the panels. 
I’ll add a few more bits of equipment and tank supplies, but have left off side sponsons and a dozer plough to make this a sleeker tank for attacking with. Plain sides will also help with painting the large eagle markings of ‘da Black Deff.’ It’s pretty powerful with a lascannon, plasma cannon and a heavy gun on the turret.
