Custom Hellhound. Sweet, I know.

This Is my custom hellhound. Basically a chimera with custom turrets and fuel tanks Well, Since I have a blog, and I use it for Warhammer, Ill show off my tons of pictures of my new custom hellhound. I have been working on it for roughly the last 1-2 weeks. First I started out with a basic hellhound chassis, And then put the two barrels from the Vehicle Accesory Sprue onto the back hatch. I wanted to have some sort of wire running from the barrels to the turret, But I couldn't find any at the time. Of course, A few hours later, I found a old broken cd-rom control board, Wires and all. I then Made the turret out of the chimera multi-laser, two of the same length track guards from the Vehicle Accesory Sprue and a bit of a flamethrower. The reason I used the track guards, unfortunately, Is because I lost the top half of the turret. I'll find it later thanks to irony... Anyway, I drilled two holes into the barrels with my x-acto knife. (Dremel wont hold the tiny ones, I need an adapter). Then, I primed it black, then painted it. So, without further ado, The painted Hellhound.

Just showing the colors for the turret. Funnily enough, they were useless.

And lastly the side. You might notice that I applied a wash of Chestnut Ink to darken the red. I also plan on painting a triangle pointing towards the front of the turret in orange. But I cant find the paint pot.
