Hi!

I like to join this GB with a MCV Warrior in a post-apocalyptic style. I'll try to make it look scavenged. I'm thinking of doing somekind of reflective armor coating to protect against beam weapons. Not that I'm sure it really does, but it would be fun to do! :)
Here's the kit!



And my started build!



I'm also thinking of folding the wheels and tracks sections in a "Back to the Future" style, giving it a hoover capability.

Cheers,

Azgaron

Interesting choice for your first build on the website.  Welcome!

Looking great How is the kit to build? What kind of paint scheme will it have? ;D
Yeah,I know the load is late.But the voices keep telling me to pull over and clean the guns.

Now I've come to the point where I need to figure what to do with the hover capability, and how to do it. I can see three possibilitys.

1. I do the fold kinda thingie al'a "Back to the Future", add some actuators, rods, engine, and stuff between the hull and the folded section with the wheels and tracks.

2. I just add some engine exhausts or fans and fins for hovering.

3. I just go or the intended paintscheme, and don't give a damn about hovering :)

Any thoughts?

Cheers,

Azgaron


Try #1 and see how hard or easy it is first

I'd say go for the hover capabilities.
