I do believe with a little searching, there is one in the articles section on here somewhere.

Failing that, one of the gravediggers oughtta know

Try these, they\'re a wee bit cheaper.

There was an article in a WD a while ago (German WD at least) on building your own drop pods out of cardfoam and stuff, including templates and all. Might also find something on the US or UK GW site.
Failing that, PM me

Dave, that link aint working for me, could you check it at all??

Cheers mate.

I know there was a paper/card template for making them though.

But, failing that, looks like there is gonna be a plastic one, Id just hole fire.

Works fine for me.

www.miniaturescenery.com is their main page so you ought to be able to find the drop pods easily enough from there.

Website w/ Cheap Drop Pod Instructions

I stumbled across this tutorial while checking out some Sisters of Battle color schemes (prep work and inspiration for my own army).

Extremely cheap, and fairly easy, whether or not you own an airbrush.
