My friend modified a Land Raider to make it look more like what a Land Raider should look like

I was really upset when this wasn't a 1:1 scale land raider, but this looks awesome anyway!

At least the tracks finally look like they could get enough traction to move it!

I think this would look better if the middle was wider too.

This is some pretty good work. I'll admit, it definitely has a much more sturdy look to it, but as others have observed, the middle being the same size sort of detracts from the overall beefiness.

On a side note...even though this is well-done, it just reminds me even more why I dislike the Land Raider model so much...it just looks like a box with tracks and some other gubbinz tacked on. Nothing against your work, I just feel GW could have been a little more creative with the lines of the Raider...y'know, taken a little cue from FW with their vehicles.

That is very cool! Great job as I can't even see any seams.

I'm not sure I like the proportions, but I have to give you credit for making the double-wide tracks look pretty seamless. really nice work, there.
