I think it looks great as a Z Force tank or maybe a Persuader mk II

Lovely job Andy!

Great to have you back amongst the Shads again... :doc:


Is the driver figure's torso a Series 1 Pilot?

It works well painted red.



Seeing this just now - together with Wheeljack's excellent customs - has cheered me up!

Back to AF customs on the AF website. Its like the good old days!

Cheers Paul ! the torso is indeed the series one mission pilot, all I had to do was paint stripes on his arms and cover his yellow zips....... and paint his crotch black ! so there wasnt too much work in the figure.

The tank looks fantastic... always thought the Shadow's needed some heavy armour!! And the driver looks perfect... very reminiscent of WW2 Panzer crew.... excellent work!!!

Never seen that Assault tank before mate. When I was younger I used to make barbed wire out of solder. Very maluable and safer than wire. How about looking at some pictures of the M1 Abrams in service for further ideas.

If I get time Im going to have a look this afternoon, if all else fails there is always those rolled up pieces of canvas that military vehicles always seem to have.

The other option is to remove the :enemy: logos from the turret.
