im still working on the Deimos Infernus Predator, but I saw the Thunderfire Cannon posted by Armorman, and fell in love.....so I started that one too. Guess what, NO instructions. Im working solely on the 4 pictures in the pdf, and the parts....so it's slow, but im making progress

There are a few models in the patoroch list that do not have instructions. I usually make a google https://www.google.com/search?q=thu...ATqn4DQDA&ved=0CDUQsAQ&biw=1024&bih=497&dpr=1 of the model and use the photos I find for reference. Originally I was going to try to build the patoroch list when it was about 15 models, Now way now, since the list is in the hundreds, but every model made by others will help in the instruction and reference department. Thanks for sharing and waiting to see more of your stuff.

Thunderfire Cannon

Little bit of progress......had to scratch build spacers for the "Arm wheels" but other than that, all is progressing pretty well. Not a bad model to re-stretch my mind and fingers back into the game :)

Got to say, this was a fun model to get me back in the stretch. I enjoyed it :)I printed this one as-is. Not in my "famous" 4 pages per sheet printing. but in the future, who knows.......

Warhammer 40K - Steam Tank

For my Next build, Im going back to my micro-builds again, and building the Steam Tank. Looking at the pdf, there are more instructions than the Thunderfire, but not as many as Eli's usual models. But im up for the challenge. the end result should be interesting to say the least

Incredible build, as always. I always enjoy watching you build these 40K models. I was thinking that with all the really small parts on this one, when you do the tiny version you may need a microscope. Thank You for sharing with us.
