Had this one in the isolation layer for a long time  :smiley:
After the Zaku and the military plane I wanted to build something civil, so I turned this gun toting mayhem machine into a deep sea suit.
Lots of little parts (and decals) from the spares box, along with some scratchbuild items and there you go, job done.











Thanks for having a peek
:cheers:

Excellent.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Nice one!

I'm not generally a great fan of the walking-machine/giant-robot/power-armour genre, but that's a great way to use one that's actually credible. :thumbsup:

Nice simple conversion, great work! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Way cool. I love the Dorvack PAs, and that's a neat build.

Would, BTW, also fit into the De/Militarize GB!  :party:

Thought you'd like it, especially ;)
I forgot about that groupbuild, I'll check the rules and see if it'll fit. If not, I just started another build that definitely will.

Nice job.  I have been looking at the first one in that set, thinking Firefighter and the weapon is a foam gun.

Excellent work
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Very cool. I love the colour of it and all the little details. It would be handy for offshore work, he could do the subsea stuff normally done by the ROV. he's need some actuator tools or whatever they call them to manipulate the valves etc., but I guess he could have a little tool kit that he takes down with him !

:cheers:

Looks like a 21st century 'Big Daddy'!  :thumbsup:
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

As you might be able to see, his left hand is different from his right, that's because I still had one laying around where you can position the fingers and thumb. The whole idea was having him hold something. I've had him holding a length of chain, some heavy duty piping, but nothing looked good enough. The chain looked to aggressive, the piping didn't make any sense etc. Never thought of a simple tool kit! If I get round to it I'll see what I can do and post an update  :thumbsup:

At spaceshipmodelers.com somebody did a police version some time ago...!
