At the same time that I purchased my Hornet and Lynx from Forgeworld I also got the Type II upgrade kit for this model. Needless to say, much cleaning and reforming in hot water was required to get the (very few) additional resin parts to fit.
The Wave Serpent is based on the Falcon chassis, first released back in 1993! The sprues do show their age, needing a lot of flash clean-up, but the components still assemble very well.
I painted the tank chassis as 4 separate pieces, 3 of which are the underside. The top hull includes the Forgeworld resin rear "fin" preassembled (with a lot of Liquid Green Stuff). The sundry other pieces (weapons, turret, vanes, gems etc.) were also painted separately.
Here's what every part (including some that I didn't use) looked like fully painted, just prior to assembly.
Fresh from the Bonesingers, here then is Craftworld Thae Anor's shiny new Dedicated Troop Transport ready for action.

Soon (I hope) some Guardians will make an appearance...
