Well, here are the first pictures.

The owner of the kit, wants a no fantasy final look. So, I´ll make a "tank like" finish to this one (just with a little place to some "fantasy" effects)

Base color: CARC Tan

Any opinion or suggestion will be highly apreciated

Any updtates on this?

I LOVE walkers, and I am impressed by the ball and chain skirt armor. I hope to see more of that in future builds!

If you aren't having fun, you're doing it wrong! Build to please yourself and they will flame you every time!

Oh, that is looking very cool so far! Subscribed.

Do you know where the standing figure comes from? He would look good w/ some of my 1/35 mechs.

Tizona

Posted by Jose_Luis_Lopez on Friday, November 12, 2010 6:07 AM

Hello everyone!

This is my first sci-fi kit painting work. An Spanish "Tizona" assault vehicle situated somewhere in a future mid-east war.

Tizona is the name of a sword mytical in Spain, as it belonged to "El Cid Campeador". Cid Campeador was an Spanish medieval hero (may be you remember a film form Charlton Heston about this hero) during muslim occupation between 711 and 1492 (DC)
