WIP: Astra Militarum Valkyrie complete
Work complete!
Wrapped this up just a few days after fixing my massive mistake. A few thoughts;
1. I should have built and painted in larger sub assemblies. I spent HOURS working on the door gunners for this model, and you literally cannot see them. Unbelievably stupid on my part. There are so many demands on my time that I can't afford to waste it. That's 8+ hours that should have been spent on something else.
2. I wish GW made it easier to make the weapons swappable. I wanted to use both sets of missiles on this build, but couldn't find a way to magnetize either option cleanly, so I just glued in the pods. The lascanon / multilaser on the cockpit sponson took some doing, but it swaps.
