And thats the best part of SiFi. There always an answear if you give us long enough to come up with it . Still most inspiring build in a long time and i cant stop looking at it

MrT

shoot&scoot:

Neat concept and great build.  Only reservations I have from an engineering stand point is that the engine bay might be a little small and the hydraulic hoses on the legs look too vulnerable to hostile fire or snagging on debris.  Maybe some extra shurzen on the legs?

Still a wicked looking critter and would probably scare the pants off anyone facing it!

Thanks Pat!

SiFi engineering!

Hey, that works for me!  Keep up the great work man.

MrT,

Super duper awesome cool!

Now you need a rough terrain base to really set the vehicle in its element. Possibly torn up WWI style trenches? Sky is the limit on this jem of a build, also you may have to tear off a leg and make some casts for AM demand!

I am going to put it on a rubble base, but I like the trench idea alot.  Oh man rip off a leg!  I spent almost a year putting them on.

Terry

Added some bullet holes and did some more weathering.  Here are some update pic's.  Still working on legs.

Terry

Fantastic!

You've gotta enter this thing in a competition or two.

I think you'd clean house on awards.

I plan to it might fetch somethings.

Terry

damn that thing is cool.

DrShrinker

damn that thing is cool.

Thanks Dr.!!!

WOW! Haven't been though here lately and then I stumble into this!

Super cool, great scratchbuilding and fantastic job on the weathering. Looking forward to seeing her on the base in her element.

Though I'm wondering if you're planning to modify the figures from regular WW II to adding some sort of high tech googles or other hardware for a more SF look.

Finished the walker last night and thought some update pic's would be nice.  Comments and questions welcome.

Terry

ok, found it. I missed this thread the whole time!

95% SB, well done ! 

It's really fantastic......!

Flat out awsome!!!! Like everything about it . Would like to see how you made those legs.

Thanks Sprue and Guney!

Thanks SLW!!  The legs are made of Acrylic resin parts and lots of brass tube.

Terry

Looks incredible,very nice job.

Thanks you!

Terry

nice model. it's a much more practical design than the SW ATAT walkers.

MrT

The idea for the legs came from looking at a back hoe set up.

 

Actually i do believe  you can get a six-legged logging vehicle. the legs are better able to cope with steep inclines better than wheels.

Thank you!!  Yes I have seen one of those logging machines
