Unfortunately, no. It has been sitting in a display case at a friends house for the last 10, or so, years. Because of this thread, I am thinking of making another, though. Just need to dig around in the bits box to see if I have pieces :-) |

Need a ride? Then try out one of these little beauties! ![]() ![]() An old one this. It was a Starwars keyring I got in Toys r us for a £1 years ago. I ripped the electronics out, patched the holes and repainted. Easy. Some of you recognise this one from a recent batrep. ![]() ![]() This was a Robogear model. I got a cheap boxed set on sale from Ebay for sci-fi bits. I needed a tractor unit for the cargo bays of the space port. Finally my latest build.... Grav Tank with heavy laser and HMG. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This started live as a cheap computer mouse and then died. I stripped of bits and found it had a outer shell. I trimmed this to give a window (dont worry its bullet and plasma proof). The turret was a old spoon. The heavy laser came from a old plastic GW titan and the HMG is a 50cal off my Merikva conversion. Waste not want not and all that! A craft shop paper ball provides the sensor array. The engine exhausts are electrical crimps. I knew my job would pay off one day! I had to use the button fittings to make a shelf to mount them on. They fit the wheel hole nicely. I obtained the lift look by using some stick on rubber feet for furniture. You can get a sheet of them cheaply in DIY stores. Place them underneath around the centre to lift the mouse up to give the illusion of floating. |

Thanks for the kind words. The tank was a quick build and quite easy. The chamo was easy too and fits Grimwas nicely. Grey primer then the yellow sand colour on top. Decals from a GW set, a WW2 fighter plane and a Zoids kit. NEVER throw anything away. You never know when you will use it. I have load of other mice in different shapes so there will be more to come. I am looking for one I can add tracks too. In all my sci-fi diversion is proving to be quite enjoyable. I am getting real kicks out of making models from junk. It is very rewarding. But my wastelands are calling to me.... |

I have a bit of an obsession with jet bikes...so I thought I would build one for my sci fi warriors...![]() ![]() ![]() This model started like as a GW 40K Space Marine Scout bike. I scratch built a air intake, added a thruster outlet, filled some holes with putty and added a fairing from a 1:32 motorbike keyring. The rider is a mix of the original figure with a 40K IG torso. |
