That's one really brilliant concept which you're bringing to life in a masterful way, Carlos! I'm going to enjoy watching you bring this one across the finish line!

BTW: What about a turretless version with torpedoes as a fast torpedo boat?
Those side bodies in hull are external tanks.

Now that you've said that, I can't help but see it as a boat, maybe a high-tech PBR for a future sequel of "Apocalypse Now".

Looks great Carlos, very much like the near future designs that you tend to see in a lot of computer games these days.
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.

Well, at least in my mind, it is a hovercraft intended to support landing and, maybe, river operations. But this is a virtual word and any of you can envisage a different and valid role.  :cheers: :drink: :party:

The sad part is the painting process is taking me more time than I foresaw. As I do not want to mess it more than usual, I do not think I will post on time for this GB. Pity :banghead: :banghead:

Many thanks to all of you for your nice words.
If moderators are so kind to move this thread to Current and Finished Projects, I will try to finish this project in a few weeks :cheers:
Thanks again.

I can move this if you like, Carlos but you've still got a few days yet. Any chance you might make it to the finish line with this beauty?

What do you think about a M113 with 8 wheels?  :thumbsup: :cheers:
