someone must have some tips or ideas, rough plan is to make it from plasticard, but getting the look right might take some time.

Maybe build a shape of plasticard and GS around a normal Rhinox ? Use parts from a bloodcrusher ?
Hope this helps a bit

i was thinking of buying the FW one and snding it down alot, get rid of all detail as such, then adding armour plates.
not too sure though as i rather not waste £36 and have it look like crap.

maybe try some rhinoceros toys as a base, then start busting some plasticard action?

a quick google search found this site with several options, all pretty affordable (especially compared to a FW model)

Rhinox from Transformers Beast Wars:
Pics:

Tracks swing down over his back legs
You can look it up on google, I found 10 listings most MIB around 10 GBP...
Only consideration is the size, I can't find a decent pic to easily scale it however going by the packaging it looks about the size of a FW rhinox...
