Yeah Raven, the grav drives will sit on the ends of the axles so they are easily swapped for other mods, the idea is that what you see in the picture is the standard vehicle and you then use accessory packs to add wheels or maybe tracks? New cabs, big guns, armour etc etc. Everything will slot onto the base chassis.

Healthy discussion is always the best way to get the best outcome whether it is designing a model, crunching some rules or refining some artwork.

I am glad it is promoted on this forum, some forums are a little precious about healthy discussion to the detriment oif their members

Right well made some progress today, here are the pics, this mockup is for scale only so I can translate the drawings to 3D take and make measurements etc. The real deal will be constructed in plasticard and greenstuff, so don't expect much detailing yet.

This shows the vehicles scale, it's just over 5" long and 2" wide. This is the bare chassis that multiple options will fit onto.

This shows the vehicle at float height, shown here are the closed cab and truck body options. Whatcha recon? :D

So as I'm now waiting for some fresh plasticard to arrive I started planning the details and modified the design slightly, so here is a fresh concept of the gravitruck, note the new bulkier grav drives and simpler design of the rear compartment.

Next up is a design for a medium class vehicle, inspired by a special one off Rolls Royce it is the pinnacle of pre war motoring, introducing the spectre! Using the latest in atomic v12 engines, powering ionodrives for smooth frictionless movement.

Sweet looking designs Mortius!

You'll need to work in some posters and Billboard Advertisements for Mortius Motors on your gaming table. And if ya do this share the work and I'll print some for my table too.
