At first I wasn't quite sure about this one, but as you move down the pictures you really feel like this was supose to be.

Cool paintjob, it only don't make sense to me at all: an amphibious tank for Space Force?

You have a problem with the spaceship being airtight??

I meant: this vehicle looks a little too 'earthy' for me. It just looks like a repainted tank, nothing more. Some whacky missiles, a lasercannon or other crazy modifications would have made sense to me, to make it a little bit more space age. Just like George Lucas turned a WWII Mauser into Han Solo's blaster. Ken wit' aye mean?
Now it is a little difficult for me to place it in the Action Force universe. And mind you, my mind is able to do lateral thinking big time, especially when the acid is on the table...
And now that ya got me thinking: how on earth do you want to transport this to a planet? Hmmm, there is a pun in that line! Finally, yes then I will log out for today, I cannot recall Action Force fighting the Shads on different planets, so why the need of a tank?

but but but but.... ya ummm, oh,,,,umm..... ya your right LOL
still cool custom and good job
I am NOT a fan of the Space force part of Action Force for me it ranks up ther with the kracken and the skull guy of BAD ideas that blurred the good repuation of Action Force,
but thats just me ! again though great job all of these they look great
you have been busy thats for sure

A Cobra Bug would make a good Space Force vehicle.

Well the Roboskull was always the Shadows spaceship, and I always saw the android figs (Muton and Skeletron) as extensions of that corps. There was the whole Moondancer comic where the Shads had a moonbase where the Shads had these buggy's with huge tyres. Throw in the Personnel Carrier from Aliens and I don't have a problem with a Space Tank - beats the sh*t out of vehicles with legs a la George Lucas! Anyway, there are bound to be lakes on other planets!
But truth be told, this one came in later after I'd already started painting. Which squad would you have assigned it to? I was torn between Space and the Shadows.

Personally a think a Warthog makes excellent beach landing material for S.A.S. covert missions.
For Space Force you could have thrown in some more adjustments, like a few Cosmic Cruiser gattlin guns, rather that just a repaint. That would have made the vehicle more plausible and more fitted to the corps.
