Blood for the Baron!

it's not a comic. it's text-only prose. currently in the 'projects' section of the forum. the first story is in three parts 'Part 1: Formation', 'Part 2: Selection' and 'Part 3:Confrontation'. The second story's being written in chunks in a thread titled 'Action Force 2: Escalation'.

How did you attatch the tracks to the Shodowtrak and are they the Wolverine`s ?
Having a stab at this myself, but with different tracks though.

Hi scoobydie, the tracks are from a wolverine. I was going to do some elaborate method so that i could detatch the tracks at will, but i couldnt wait and ended up just super gluing them on! I was also going to do some small wheels between the tracks (like the hyena and wolverine) to enable it to roll properly, but i liked being able to look under and through it with no obstructions, if you see what i mean. I had to make two slits as shown in the following picture, because without them the trak shell sat a bit high at the front.

If i do another one i will probably attach the tracks differently. I cant wait to see your one! If you, do let me know how you did the tracks and i will probably end up copying your idea!

Feel a bit of a cheat stealing your idea, so maybe I`ll just borrow it for now
I`ve used a very similar idea putting slits into the chassis,
I`ll put some pics up in a bit.

Cant wait to see your pics! Dont feel like a cheat, it would be fantastic to see a picture of squadrons of king traks looking menacing. Im just surprised that no one has done this before.

Hi Sundance, ive read your story so far (excellent) and left some comments. You must have worked on it for ages! Looking forward to the climatic ending.

i have a battered shadowtrack i was gonna do something with but how do you split it apart without damaging the tabs?
Bill

Flip it over and press the tabs inwards with the tip of a screwdriver, unclip ecah one in turn and then the two halves will fall away.
