Hello.... a little project I did last weekend. Far from finished

Is this a CO cartridge put to a new use?

Yep!

Cool 

[Mancha]

I like that. 

You seem to have a plethora of those Copplestone gunners, or is it the same bloke, used over and over again?  You should ask Mark if he'd cast you up a batch special, as he seems to be necessary for many of your eccentric works of genius.

Hi... it's always the same gunner. I tried to contact Copplestone when the Monowheel came out to ask for a pile of those gunners, but got no reply  This is the third vehicle suited for him and I really would like to sell him in my shop
I also thought about getting a driver sculpted and cast, maybe with multiple head options or even without the head so everybody could swap a suited one on the body, but I think that would be too expensive for my small ranges.

Oh wow, I love this thing.

I have a C02 cartridge laying around somewhere in the office too...

Tobi -

contact me. I am sure we could work something out on gunners from my ranges.

Great idea - I would suggest adding 2 more balloon canisters (in a row above the single one would be my suggestion) - it would make it more likely that this would be suspended by the balloons and putting the HMG on a pivot (or something that looks like one) so it could shoot down and not just at other craft.

I can't paint vehicles... but you get the idea

I think if you had done some sort of canvas cover holding it down from the top, held to the lines, it would have looked cooler.

[Mac Finn]

OK First of all very cool.

Also Lon and Puuka offered great suggestions to make it even cooler.

Look forward to getting my hands of some of these!

Looking Good!

Yes, it needs something. That's why I suggested the canvas. It might make it look bigger. To me it just doesn't look big enough that it could lift a single guy.

[Jonas]

That is really great... the only downside is the need for a Copplestone gunner....

Will they be for sale any soon?

For me it doesn't need canvas to hold it down, I think it can be painted up as a metal balloon held up by unobtanium gas...

Nice One!

But: You could let it really fly if you take a Full Cartridge and a Nail
