Looking good, I did something similar with a soldier force half track a while ago and added cut down mobat tracks on the back but never got round to finishing it...

The white plastic is cut from a sheet of 3mm Nylon. I often find small offcuts lying around at work which come in handy.

I could have done with some larger tracks, the ones im using are from a Havoc and are a bit shorter than I would have liked, but im working round it.

Any plans to finish yours ?

Not unless I get a new base vehicle or more of the same ones as these are a bit buggered now... Was one of my first customs and am not too happy with it...

..................... TOP TIP ...... never attempt to scratch build !


- HA!

Very impressed so far Andy.

And impressed that your even trying to scratch build!

That will take an awful lot of work, but your clearly doing a mighty fine job!

Good luck with it, I very much look forward to seeing the completed thing!
