Little but some progress. Probably doesn't look much different from last set of pictures, but its lower and wider. More squat, if that's english.

I am hoping you are ready for the fame coming your way! :)

Squat is english. Means to get lower, but describes things pefectly for both activities :mrgreen:

Just back from a few days in London. Stopped at Harry Potter exhibition at Warner Bros Studio just north of London. There are some fantastic paper models there for pre-productions, even trees! and the last big one is awesome :eek: (over used word, but not in this case) Worth a look even if not a fan, but the kids loved it.

Anyway I digress, a bit of progress on gun ports and a bit of technique.
Used the first drill bit that came to hand to form the straight curve. Folded back the flap and glued, which then holds the curve. Then used a plastic ball from airsoft gun to form the corners.

Good job on the petals on the end of that part, very smooth! That part alone is worth a tutorial! :)

I had an ambitious plan to make the guns move, but decided that would be far to complex at this stage, maybe later if a build a deluxe version :twisted:

So fixed guns. 1 gun attached to angled back plate

And now after all this time, months more than expected, it's seems like I'm getting somewhere.

I have to say that it is well worth the wait.
You are doing a FANTASTIC job in both designing and building it.
My hat is off to you.

No time as usual, sorry for no updates for ages.

Just been working on a few details. And I must make you aware of cheating :eek: I used wooden cocktail sticks for the missiles :cry:

Sorry to be taking so long over it.

Thanks for all the interest, it helps to keep me motivated. I try to get something done every night, but life gets in the way.

And I've worked out my photography is awful :cry:. I might blame the camera.

This thing looks awesome! All it needs is a little paper George Peppard and Jan-Michael Vincent to go with it.

Looks great. I wish I could design in 3D. I've worked in graphic design for print for many years, but 3D design is beyond me. It would be great to scale it to fit a 4 or 6 inch action figure and them make a couple of custom figures to go with the vehicle.

I believe there were a set of A-Team figures made in 1/64 for a die-cast vehicle set, definitely a George Peppard available there. Also Galoob did figures back in the 1980s.

I have those Galoob figures and the big van they go in! I forgot about them.:cool: Repainted Army men would probably look good too. Finding some large "scorpions" would make a great desert diorama.
