Hi everyone, I have not posted in a while, but I finally completed building the Randy Cooper Sandcrawler resin kit and thought I would share some pictures. I removed the front ramp and built an interior. The figures are a mixture of scratch and micro machine. Been wanting to build this for...

This is the Fine Molds 1/72 Y-wing kit that I converted into a two-seater. This was my favorite fighter from SW, and I always thought they had a reptilian appearance about them. I was thinking of what one might look like as a long range special ops ship, so I thought I’d do something a little...
