Warhammer 40,000 Vehicle – Golden Demon 2017 

The Golden Demon 2017 Warhammer 40,000 Vehicle categories appeared to be one of the most competitive this year. There were unsurprising lots of Space Marine Dreadnoughts. There were no less than five Leviathan pattern Siege Dreadnoughts. The imperial knights didn’t make  as strong a showing this year.

The Golden Demon Warhammer 40,000 Squad entry was very difficult to get near at Warhammer Fest. I managed to get most of these photos later in the day when the area around the cabinets had calmed down.
