SAS Puma & driver

Post by Red Baron »

After Jimbobx's post about pimp up your Panther, this seems fitting. Not sure if anyone else here has done one, but I've coverted a Stinger in to a Puma, complete with new driver figure.

I'm planing on painting the wheel hubs yellow, but haven't got a pot of the Plastickote stuff at the moment. I was also toying with yellow missiles, so let me have your thoughts. Perhaps a few additional SAS stickers are needed, but I quite like the relatively low key sticker coverage (mainly re-used from the Stinger and borrowed from a Silent Attack). Hope you like.

I vote 100% for yellow missiles. What color would you make the lower missile parts though? I think its nearly perfect otherwise, maybe one more Dagger SAS logo on the part behind the door.

Yes, I was thinking of one of the Dagger logos behind the door. Like it's sister the Panther, but without the stripes. If I had the missiles yellow then I think I'd keep the bases black, although I know on my Q-Force Flying Fish, most people tought the yellow / black was too harsh a contrast.

Brilliant work mate. How about looking for some suitable replacement missiles that are already yellow? I used some spare red missiles I had for my :zforce: custom chopper rather than paint some others and found it really effective.
The first lot of yellow missiles Scooby has spare would probably fit on the pegs and I think they would fit in great.

That camo job is fantastic. Maybe sacrilege but I think your driver/vehicle combination is a way better fit for the SAS than Stalker/Panther.

There's nothing wrong with yellow and black together, it was just non Q-Force.

This is excellent. You may get away with grey missiles, but I doubt it would be as striking.
