Thank you all! The idea of expanding this and building a whole range of Quixotesque creations is quite tempting :D

I just stumbled upon the thread as I was browsing. Absolutely top-notch from start to finish  :o, the execution of the idea is simply marvellous and the paint job is really 'popping'. Now I shall go and mope at my own feeble efforts  lol.

That second Quixote could not be completed without a second Sancho, of course. So this was the other half of the commission. While my first idea was following my steps and doing a 'classical' ride with a saddle on the neck...



... I was convinced by a friend to do otherwise and put the driver on the back. With that in mind I used an old WH40K2 warbike:



Look at that glorious fat waist. Remember, 'panza' is Spanish for belly.

If you give the pic a really close look, you may see the contact key ;D





So, cutting the dapple's neck and repositioning the whole thing...





From now on it's all a matter of adding stuff and details until you get something like this:









The happy couple:



Finally, old and new:



You have it all on the blog, with a couple of additional WIP pics :P:

  :o Really outstanding modelling, not least in your imagination of these wonderful wanderers of the wastelands...

Snorted tea out of my nose there, Cait Sidhe. So thanks for that.

Those walkers are marvelous.

Thank you all, guys. The process is fun, and really pretty easy. I'm simply way too lazy to make difficult stuff ;D
