these are pics of the greeblies and stuff like antenne and buffers for the main gun and more hoses and some more panel lines.

Just wanted to say I have really enjoyed watching this project grow!  A really nice development of a one of the finer Star Wars "less thought about" features.

Well done, keep it coming!  You inspire me

Updated pics y`all!!!

Whoa!  Verra, Verra nice-uh! 

Isn't it amazing how you can take a regular "found object" and make it in to something that almost every SciFi geek out there can immediately identify?  And you're doing an awesome job w/it, too!  Can you tell us a guesstimated cost on this?  Betcha it'll be under $20 for materials and paints, huh? 

Here are some updated pics of the gun turret! Enjoy

Damn, you sure know your tank parts! yeah, thats a russian tank machine gun from a t72, and used an aluminum  barrel from an AFV tiger 1 that was just junk and parts from a ferdinand tiger and some parts from a federation droid tank too. why wouldnt an at-st from AMT work? its close isnt it?

I know lots of tank parts stippy, if you have not figured it out I am Char from GalileoII Plus I could tell that was the Russian machine gun since I am loaded on Russian tanks

AMT AT-AT its a little on the small side I would think.

Nice work again stipp, see that you used a Russian machine gun on top forgot the name.Now you just need a 1/35 AT-At to go with it
