The idea was to put Spitfire in flight on one side of the front, and Soarin’ on the other. Not sure whether to try putting Misty and Fleetfoot on it somewhere too. (Probably on either side of the tail, or on top of the short side wings).  
Don’t think I’ll be doing the smoke trails too far around the model.
 
As for getting the thing built, timescale’s undetermined. It still needs the guns, the short moving wings on the sides with the las cannons, and the undercarriage, plus a ton of detail work.  
Add to that the fact I’m not building 1 Thunderhawk, but 4, and that’s drawing the times out.  
(Wonderbolts themed, Hello Kitty themed one for the rival army, and 2 more for a couple of lads at the local club, (one of which hasn’t been back for an age).

That is some snazzy gradient work on the Changetalons & their fuzzy friend. As for your latest gunship plans, might I suggest rendering the ’Bolts mid-flight along either side of the nose, with their smoke-trails looping back along the wings?

I still think Mystia’s got him beat with the Storm Talon.  
>>854529
 
I do have another model in the works, although I’ve done virtually nothing at it for several months.  
>>672047  
It’s going to be a Wonderbolts themed Thunderhawk Gunship, if I ever get the thing finished. (Note the emblem on the front).

Heh, sadfacings for slagged armor. And Faust’s soul patch, that Derptalon’s a thing of not-so-grim grey beauty (‘specially the tail-eyes). Now I’m sorely tempted to give an Me 262 kit the new EQUALITY!villain treatment…if nothing else, her mark would be dead easy.

Forgot to mention, most of the models in my pony army have pictures on more than one facing.  
Most have a picture on the underside, as the models are flipped over when they’re wrecked. I did this as much for an excuse to paint another picture on the models as it is to make my opponent fell sorry for wrecking them, (or having a laugh at the fact I’ve actually been crazy enough to do this).  
>>557558 (bulk of the tanks)  
>>659241 (Spa twins Whirlwind)  
>>818080 (Sonata Dusk rhino)
 
And the back door of the Sonata rhino’s here >>818078
 
(You could have a try at doing something like ponifying a model yourself. Say a 1:72 scale plane model perhaps? They are fun to do, and are certainly unique).
 
Oh yes, final thing from me tonight. I said I’d inspired at least 3 other armies.
 
Army number 1  
Mystia.  
>>738242  
(I put an artist tag on his army pictures so anyone can find all his models if you want to look at the others).
 
Army number 2  
(No idea who did these, but this one’s from his army)  
>>669114 and >>669115  
As is this  
>>669108 >>669107  
And this  
>>669111 (Notice that Mystia’s Luna Land Raider has ‘Luna’ across the front of the top front hatch, whilst the one in this image says ‘For the night’).
 
Army number 3  
Joey 012.  
(Who’s actually one of my regular gaming opponents)  
>>763848  
>>724616  
(His force is mostly themed to Chrysalis and Derpy).

It’s beautiful when coworkers can live & let live-and Gilda Gunship(C)? Yes please. Noice pone marines as well-that scale would drive me mad (‘course, I’m barely any good with model warplanes above 1:72 or so).

Done a few more since. Most are up on here already as individual pictures, although my latest model is nearing completion. King Sombra themed warhound scout titan (like those with Celestia and Luna on in that picture I linked). I am intending to do a second Reaver Titan (Cadance one in the linked pic), although storing said models is becoming an issue.
 
New models not in that picture  
>>659226 and >>659230 Spa twins Whirlwind  
>>695062 and >>698109 Gilda forge world Fire Raptor gunship (bought new at a cost of around £96)  
>>724861 Zecora themed Knight titan (again bought new, £85)  
>>746422 OC character unit to go with my Safe Haven themed transport model. Includes a handful of other models from the same force.  
>>794734 Queen Chrysalis themed warhound scout titan and my Felicia one for my Hello Kitty marine army.  
>>848742 Sonata Dusk and Aria Blaze themed rhinos. (And god only knows did THOSE take some painting!)
 
I usually paint my models in my lunch break at work. All the workforce knows what I’m doing, and none of them really cares much.

@40kponyguy  
Criminy, all that repaint must’ve eaten some evenings. Can’t help thinking the smaller vehicles’ ponefaces would’ve fit a little better on the sides WWII-tank style, but those Princess Titans (specially Cadie’s)? Magnifique.

Glad to be of service.
 
I was the one responsible for this small force of pony themed 40k models.  
>>557512  
And I’m aware of at least 3 other armies that have been done copying this idea. (Admittedly 2 of those are much better painted than mine, but I was the first to do this).

@gorkspewdium  
There’s some quite well known artists on here that have done 40k crossover images.  
Even Yakovlev-Vad has done one as far as I know.  
>>760227
 
Shaadorian has done 2 as well  
>>608032  
>>738807 (This one’s stunning).
 
Not sure if any other well known artists have done 40k crossover images.  
(As in, ones you wouldn’t expect to).
 
I started out in the 40k crossover part of the fandom.  
And seeing as around 10% of Derpibooru’s 40k crossover images were uploaded by me, I think I may have some influence here.

John Joseco does a 40k crossover image?
 
That was unexpected.
 
Looks like one of his quicker sketches- a little rough, but still pretty good.
