The Walrus looks to me like a sic fi garbage truck for some reason.

Good stuff though.  Wish I had money.



And a lot more time.

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

This is an hour long video (which I havn't had time to watch through myself yet) so I imagine it's going to go into some detail and there should be some good painting/building tips since Adam was a model maker at ILM for years.

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

Oh-my-God this is gorgeous but oh-my-God the price.... :wub: :banghead:











Detailed blog post about it: http://industriamechanika.com/blog/

I'm afraid I won't be getting one. I might just about be able to afford the matching figures: https://industriamechanika.com/shop/home/174-135-space-pawn-soldiers.html

Yeah: give the Bulldog anti-grav instead of wheels and a laser gun instead of a GPMG, i.e. they're STILL updating the bloody thing instead of replacing it... :rolleyes: ;D

Not massively cheap but they're all interesting, especially the Space Pawns. May have to see if I can stretch the budget. :thumbsup:
