Looking really good!

I laughed because I have used that same air freshener on some
of my props in the past. It's a neat looking little tit bit.

Thanks!

That is funny. Although, it was a pain to work with. Don't know what kind of
plastic it's made from but it definitely doesn't like to be sanded....same for the Windex part on the leg.
 
Got some work done today....here's a test fit so you get an idea of what it'll look like completed.

Looks good. Always like to see people doing their own thing.

Your other kits assemblies and scratchbuilt tweeks on them look geat as well. I have thoughts to ask you to do a Reliant that I don't have time for.
 
Great imagination it's looking excellent, the detailing
and over all shape is making it very interesting!!:thumbsup
 
I have to correct myself. I guess I didn't end up going with the air
freshener you did but one that was close.

Here is a link to my prop build up.

Thee "Multibodies" as they were called, were made for a short film.
I made four in total.

Like your build up, they were made from things lying around or store
bought materials

Here is a link to my build up. Maybe you can get some idea's for future
builds. :)

Another quick update. Finished the pistons for the legs and decided to build some shields...a little tribute to the AT-ST.

I'm trying not to primer anything just yet. I went looking for Plastikote gray but Wal-Mart doesn't seem to carry it anymore. Been using Krylon Auto Black but I don't like a dark primer. Any suggestions on where to find Plastikote...besides the internet?

KnightDriver2001, I dig your site....I'm really going to study your builds!.

Another quick one....got the foot done for the most part....some cleanup required. I might add a few more bits and hoses.

I'm working on getting the underside of the head area done. I'm going for an "under the hood" look...busy, almost messy. I'm still waiting to add some last bits and pieces before adding lots of hard lines and hoses. I can't wait to spray this part with primer.

Here's another update on the underbody. I've got some hoses and stuff coming in from MechaSkunk and after that should be ready to go.

Ok, looks like the end for now. I'm so happy with it. I still need some hoses and wiring for the armament but that will be installed after painting. Unfortunately, I won't be able to paint it for a while. I am in the process of setting up my garage and until I get a paint booth, I won't be airbrushing. I don't want my garage to look like my last little shop....there was over-spray everywhere!!! Anyway, here it is...thanks for your support! It was important that I at least get this built....my first original build! Thanks!!!
