Grayson72 Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Looks fantastic man, I love your paintwork, the subtle shading is awesome. You gotta do something about those shiny tires though, looks like they've been Armoralled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MechTech Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 I just know that HWR is using a stolen fold pod and just not telling us about it . Nice job on the armor! - MT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie addict Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 I don't like to check this thread cause HRW makes me feel all clumsy and slow whenever I see how quickly and good he makes his stuff he builts like 5 models in the time it takes to built one I'd like to see his collection, where does he keeps all this stuff ?¿?

wm cheng Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 Great job!! I love the weathering - armour is so rich in textures to detail, and you did a fantastic job bringing them out. Keep posting, I can only get my "fix" living vicariously through you! Keep up the great work. And, yeah... where do you keep it all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HWR MKII Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Actually i have been working on the stryker for 3 or 4 months on and off. Ill see if i can find the in progress pics later on. This thing has as much Photo Etch on it as it does styrene. Trumpeter came out with its own in house photo etch part set. 5 frets of brassy goodness. I have alot of shelves.

THOR Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 are you adding wheels to that hardgraph hover truck thingy in the background? I was thinking of using bigger tires like those from the aliens apc....your thoughts? -THOR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HWR MKII Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Actually those are cast from a master i made. But in short i am adding wheels. I think the APC wheels would be a little big. The wheels i used were from a 8X8 Modern German scout car, the Luchs. I scratched up a bogie and sent them off to be cast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahab Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Hello gang. I frequent this forum quite a bit but this is my first post. The attached image is an 'in-progress update' of an original creation based upon a series of paintings I've been working on featuring "parallel world" airships. This "airfreighter" is 1/12 scale and features only the back third of ship. This piece will act as the 'background' for a short film currently in the works. Unfortunately, I won't be able to build the first sixteen feet of the freighter, as the storyboards only call for the back end....blast! The dimensions are: 87" length 46" height 16" depth There is a lot of great work on this site and I look forward to your creations!
