The Emperor's Fury (Basilisk Proxy)

thingiverse

This remix brings together elements from Mkhand_Industries' "Epic Scale Wyvern Suppression Tank v2" and "Epic Scale Armageddon Pattern Basilisk SPG", with resized ladders and artillery shells taken from outofstep's "Interstellar Imperial Army - Cockatrice". A spent artillery casing was also created. The top portion of the tank is a remix of an artillery vehicle found in m_bergman's "1:200 Tanks and Vehicles - Pack 2" and has been scaled for Epic 40k, designed as a Basilisk proxy. This model consists of two main parts - the main Chimera chassis and the Earthshaker cannon. To scale it appropriately for use in 28mm Warhammer 40k, which is what I will be using, I recommend up-scaling the model by 513.75%. I hope you enjoy the model and share any pictures of the print! Emperor's Fury Lore: The Basilisk serves as the main line artillery piece of Imperial Guard Regiments throughout the Imperium, providing medium to long-range fire support. Among the most numerous and well-known of the Guard's artillery, the Basilisk is based on the Chimera chassis and mounts an Earthshaker Cannon for direct and indirect fire. Similar to the Vanaheim pattern Basilisk, the Emperor's Fury is a recent Basilisk variant designed and deployed by the Death Korps of Krieg throughout the galaxy. Intended for use in harsh environments and extended sieges, the Emperor's Fury comes equipped with a higher and more heavily armored gun cabin than the traditional Basilisk.
