WH40K - Catachan Vehicle Conversions

Recon Buggy - I know, it looks like a Warthog from Halo.


Almost everyone does this to a Space Marine Speeder. I used the dozer blade supports to make the suspension. Couldn't think of anything to cover the engines at the back. Perhaps they are for Super Rocket Turbo Boost Mode. I know, it looks like a Warthog from Halo.

Jungle Tank


Armour is useful in the jungle, as the Australian Army found in Vietnam. This is a Chimera, with about 2 cm cut from the rear half. The main armament is an autocannon, making it a sort of Salamander Scout vehicle, with a turret and enclosed rear. There are a large number of packs and other items stowed on it, including a mortar. The idea is that the Catachan troops leave excess baggage on the vehicle, retaining only what they need for immediate survival.
