    DG's Vehicle WIPs

    Those are some bad a** croch rockets. The weathering / sliding marks came out awesome!! Only thing is those pieces would be cracked to hell in real life as I've dumped on one before, unless of course they are made of high impact top secret material. :D

    Jeep to Land Rover Conversion

    Ok, I'm going to get quite ambitous here. I own a Land Rover Discovery (on mothballs after 227,000 miles) that I love and have always wanted to get a Defender, but the price is outrageous since their not sold here in the US. Since I've been in this hobby I've wanted to get a 1:18 scale...

    Whiskey Desert / Mountain Ambush Squad

    I'm going to keep them all in this thread going forward. With the new Lanard Corp vehicle I'm calling the ATGT (All Terrian Gun Truck), I wanted to make a 3 or 4 man team to go with it. I have 3 now and may add a fourth possibly the alrenate head for Zartan I'm calling Blaze with MAS3. I'm using...

    Gijoe APC

    Great vehicle, PCS you did a wicked nice improvement. You would think this would be a good re-release with all the troop builders like Steel Brigade, Hawk & others.

    Fuchs IFV custom for Cobra

    So cool, I dig when you guys open these things up and fabricate an interior. Adds so much more to these thing, even to just look at never mind use in a dio. Great stuff, some day I'll have the balls to try this.

    Thanks Brother! Those cool rails are the plastic things found in the packaging that the twist tie things are looped through to hold the toy in place in the box.

    Rick's Corp ATK

    Ok here it is, I may re-shoot in the daytime, not happy with lighting plus i want to take shots of a few interior details. First time doing a wash and dry brush on an entire vehicle. I followed PCS's tutorial. It was spot on. I went to dark with adding black, so I had to dry brush the hell...

    Captain America figures

    I'm liking that Red Skull fig. Almost walked out with him, but decided on a 2nd Low Light. Figured chances of seeing that retail again are slim. With a new head sculpt he can easily fit into Cobra or an Alti Universe with one of you guys. Great custom potential

    Rick's Corp ATK

    Yeah, it is that thin. I to had passed this thing up and busted chops on the guy who periodically posts how great this stuff is. We're desperate and they are a step below PTE but with the shortage of new quality stuff by bbi and the sorts I feels as if I have my beer goggles on when looking at...

    Rick's Corp ATK

    I updated the photos. I think I got the weapons I want and seem logical. Added a chair in the back. painted some details, added a box on the roof and pack above gas can. Still a lot of little detail painting before i attempt weathering as well as adding packs, sand tracks, shoulder fired...

    Rick's Corp ATK

    Thanks guys, I've painted the rims, cross/roll bars and antennas desert tan and the gas can OD Green. Never did a wash of any kind before though. I'll check tutorial section but any suggestion on hpow to would help

    Rick's Corp ATK

    Thanks, I cut up the pants on the only 12" GI Joe I had. The material was of a tighter weave and seemed to looked scaled. Wondering if this should be a 3 or 4 man vehicle. The back interior has a raised platform with no seats. With gear and all thinking a 3 man? With current spec op teams...
