Leviathan WarShip miniature
« on: 16 December 2017, 07:45:32 »
I seem to recall that someone on theses forums posted an image of a Leviathan WarShip (the limited edition miniature from the Trial of Retribution 2003 Worldwide Event). But I didn't save the image, and haven't been able to find it again.
Would somebody be kind enough to link me to the right thread, and/or post or repost the image please?

I believe the link below will provide what you're looking for. It may not be the actual image , but I believe this is the limited edition version of the ship

The Transport verison was the limited edition. The Heavy Battleship version is the buyable in the store.  Personally I wish they kept the original around. I have the battleship mini which was a bad molding. I had to get a friend to fix it for me.

The link Sharpnel posted is the one that Savage Coyote did and is featured on Camospecs.

The attached are the ones I had Psycho do, and is featured on the CSO Facebook group page.

Either one is a great painted example of a MASSIVE ship...and while I own the one Psycho did for me, I'm really wanting Savage to do one for me as well!

I would love to see a revival of that old sculpt. Same for a resculpt of that worse LevII that is available from IWM.
The Leviathan is the largest warship we have for a long time of BT history and that deserves a great miniature.

Wow! That is quite bigger than I was expecting. (But I've never handled any of the WarShip minis.)

If I recall...it's the largest mini out there for AeroTech.

Ah yes - that's the thread I was looking for in my OP. Strange that I failed to find it. Thanks for digging it up!
