A question explores whether non-human creatures can share the Flesh-eater curse, while terrain recipes and an ornate Black Templars vehicle demonstrate very different uses of familiar modelling materials.

Model of the Month: Black Templars Mortuary Land Raider

Kader Rey transforms a Land Raider into a moving reliquary using architectural panels, shields and extensive plastic-card work. Enlarged dozer armour, extra flame weapons and transparent-looking windows reinforce its identity as both a siege machine and a shrine carried into battle.
