Blood for the Baron!

Finally kind of finished this one, as I said in the WIP thread ... this is not an accurate scale model.

I put these two pics in the other thread but I will also include them here ...

this is the basic shape of the front end, and the unattached grill .......



basic chassis... this was intended to be a prototype but I spent that long on it, I decided to go ahead and finish it .....



heres a close up of the "finished" grill, as can be seen its still a bit rough close up .....



A simple head swap for the driver ....



Rear view with luggage .....



This was my original problem, I have arranged the troops how I would have liked to have had them sat in the transporter, however due to the straight legs this thing would have ended up twice as long !



So this is the new seating arrangement .....




Still looking a bit boxey ........



Primarily a troop transporter ......



But possibly useful for transporting other things ?



A couple of extra pics of my second windscreen .........

It looks great Andy it's not boxy at all

Cheers ironblood, I just thought some bits were a bit flat. I suppose it depends which angle you look from.

This is excellent andy! I like that youve added some bits from action force vehicles. The scale is perfect as well - youve done a great job getting the angles of the front bonnet section correct - well done!

Cheers Mark ! I did end up using the tracks from a HAVOC, Snowcat steering wheel and the single wheels from the Persuader.

I hope you won't melt your figures when they open the ark, right?
Now seriously, it looks fine. Now the s have their own transport to go into battle against the s and shout them "Give us our costumes back and stop dyeing them red!" (Ok, I couldn't stay serious, sorry, but it's still a good vehicle).

Andy your boxy comments remind me I used to put boxes together with a blanket to make my own Jabba the Hutt it was far too big

nice work mate, really impressive!

Brilliant as always Andy! I'm loving this one. Unlike Nazis. As Indy once said "Nazis...I hate these guys!" I never know what you are going to come out with next!

very impressive.

cant believe you scratch built this-OUTSTANDING.

now you just have to make another for the Barons troops
