Pretty nifty scratch-built tank
« on: August 13, 2008, 11:25:31 AM »
Spotted this over on an Aussie forum I've been dossing at lately:

Now that is my idea of a Landship. Thought some of you rivet-heads might like it.

Very cool. Interesting forum too, hadn't seen it before.

Very nice work...what materials did you use? Also, how did you do the rivets on the metal look? I would like to try to dublicate that when making some models based on sheet metal exteriors? Please let me know and thanks...keep up the fantastic work!

Can't answer that. I didn't make it, I just spotted it on the Rum Corps Tavern forum and thought I'd share it with the Lead Adventure mob. I wish I had that kind of skill and talent, but I'm pretty hopeless at scratch-building. You need to ask over there.

Beautiful model  :-*

I'd like a 28mm version of that, with a couple of smokestacks added.

I'm not sure about using the laptop as a modelling board, however  lol
