15mm Scifi Gruundar Scrathbuilt Vehicle.
« on: March 08, 2020, 11:10:56 AM »
Hello again all,
Here is the wip of a Gruundar vehicle ( IronGolem ??? not sure on the name yet )

It is based on a free Ebbles paper model.
Card, plastic sprue, & milk container plastic caps for wheels.

They say the devil is in the detail , so I added lots of pieces of small card , plastic sprue , wire  etc.

Thanks for your comments.

Nice build! I need to build some vehicles similar to that for exploration.

Hey Z, is there anything you can’t build?  Unbelievable.  I’m so jealous.

This needs a coat of paint to bring it together

Man, the moment, someone leaves plasticard next to you, you start scratchbuilding! Nice result.

Thanks for the kind words   :) :) :)

That's a good one Divismal  :D :D.... actually I use much more recycled card than plasticard .....
I'm a firm believer that we truly, truly.... truly need to recycle whatever, however, whenever we can ....
and I try my best to influence others..... ;D

Will do more stuff & paint .... soon

Stay safe

I cant wait to see how you paint it. I build a similar looking vehicle but for 28mm and have yet to paint as, quite frankly, it intimidates me lol.

One of the reason I do mostly 15mm.... I have scratchbuilt  28mm vechiles also... ( will post pics ) 28mm can be daunting unless you have an airbrush.
 
You can do it , you just need to start..... just give it an undercoat & take it from there.
