Cool, I always like extraneous utility vehicles etc.  Looks pretty good.  My only beef is that the cockpit would really limit the usefulness of the arm! :D

Is this a preview model or are they selling them?
What other versions are there?
Love the yellow paint job :-* :-* :-*

It seems to be part of a Kickstarter Antenocities are doing. I wish I'd known about it before!  :? It would be good to know when the rest of us can get their hands on them though. I can see these being very useful. I think without that arm they could have some great use as trucks for Megacity One! Maybe raise the back bit where the arm is to take cargo?

Nice yellow Dwartist. Airbrushed?

Yep Airbrushed. A thinned dark yellow base over a black primer (over several coats leaving the lower areas darker) then a pure yellow for zenithal lit areas. There are another two versions of the Samsara - a survey/communications(?) vehicle and a military/police vehicle (this one slightly longer and higher at the back). Turrets are interchangeable between versions.

These are all models based off of the papercraft models from Toposolitario.
Check them out here http://www.toposolitario.com/workshop/index_papermodels.html (http://www.toposolitario.com/workshop/index_papermodels.html)

I don't know which models they'll be producing but there are some tantalising posibilities there don't you think?
