Made another dropship. This one was more of a conversion rather than just putting legs on another miniature.
I started with this 15mm APC from Brigade Models:

And turned it into a dropship that works for 3mm and 6mm

Conversion was very simple, just adding turrets, domes and pbits from the bits box.

Interesting. I didn't realize the...grav-lift panels, I guess?... were separate from the (presumably) resin hull. They made of metal, I assume?
-
Yes the grav engines are metal, so I was able to have them stick out to act as feet.
-
I think it will still work as a plausible APC at the original scale even with the new turrets.
-
If Germy sez it's a dropship, that's what it is! ;)
Mind, I would have suggested visible thrusters... :D

The thrusters are just too well hidden

And because someone asked me nicely for a version in flight I've cobbled this together

I stand corrected. Maybe lean against the wall a bit...

Another creative conversion! Lovely job that.

I love those little Brigade Games vehicles. :) Very creative solution; it looks lovely.
