I don't know yet woody I actually have a larger base under construction for this but I can't finish it in time for for the contest so I built the simpler one you see, so I guess for now I'll finish this. Dont feel bad sewer rat I'm working on 4 different projects plus helping my 3 son's with theres ta boot, so I'm surprised I finished this one. I tell you what though the pics perspective has shown me a lot of areas for improvement. I'm basically a tread head woody so maybe something in that direction who know's.

I like it! Cool [8D]

It reminds me of some of the spacecraft you see in Japanese animation. Great job. What project is up next for you?

Yeah I built the main body out of a modified vacuum tube the kind you put on when you need to vacuum in corners and stuff. Kind of a curse of mine (or god send who knows) is that I never throw away old vacuum attachments as there all the same and save them for my shop vac. The main wings are acrylic, the main cannons are off of a Bismarck model, the secondary is a modified apache chain gun. Its sort of a kit bash goulash you might say.......
