Bah! Sorry guys, I didn't forget about you, just a lot of things going on! So, looks like I'll have to get all the guidelines together, make a badge and notify the proper authorities so we can kick this pig, ey? Give me a couple days, and we'll be rolling!

Here's what I've got:

Name:
MM's "Hardcore" Walker GB

Dates:
15Mar05-15Sep05

Guidelines:
- 2-8 Legged Walker, or Walker/Fighter as found in "Lazyner"
- 1-2 person Crew
- Any weaponry you want
- Retro/Hardcore looking, NO SLEEK DESIGNS! Should look like it serves a purpose other than fashion. My take on this? It would be something that would be designed today, like a walking Abrams tank. Final design is your say, but it shouldn't be sleek!
- Should have a visible cockpit. Either open or armored glass panes on the cockpit.
- Roughly 4-5 meters tall in scale (around 8.5" if made in 1/35, or was that 1/24? LOL)
- Utilize any materials you wish to complete the build, but try to keep "greeblies" and pre-made parts to a minimum if possible. If you need to use them to be a part of the build you're still welcome to join, but try to use this as an opportunity to increase your scratchbuilding skill. If you use an unusual medium to complete your project, please let us know what techniques you use to get the end result.

Participants:
DanCooper, stipp, gnsnow, The Syko Ward, Hatewall, maxx1969 (?), ClumsyModeler

These are only initial guidelines, etc. to give everyone an idea on how it's going to go. If there's any ideas out there that may make the build more interesting/open to more participants, please share them. This is the first GB I've ever headed up, so if I'm doing something wrong, let me know. I can't fix something that I don't know is broken.

The badge hasn't been started yet, but I may get something out there shortly (if I'm not too busy at work).

Are you going to start a new thread, or will we continue to use this one?

I'll try and get my design cleaned up this weekend, it fits into the guidelines (fortunately).

I'll start a new thread in the group build section of the forums, and try to get us put up on the sticky with the rest of the "other" types of group builds. Big Smile [:D] I just wanted to see if that looked good to everyone else, as it's the first time all the rules/regs got put up in one spot after all the changes from the original idea. If there's any guidelines that are too restrictive, or could be tweaked just a bit to admit someone else into the build, let us know and the group will weigh the decision.
