Still needs painting and a lil more work but thought i would share in its current state and update soon.
Just a little foam board needed.
The draft 30mm in height at highest point, the rest is 20mm. A little over 270mm in length and 100mm in depth.


The cut


The construction (looks a little wobbly but its on a unstable slope, rush photo's with phone)


The scale


Held together with 8 little plasticard tab pins, no glue

added some dimensions with photoshop

Awesome Tut. Thanks for this.

Dude that's awesome! Did you just use foam board that you bought or just random stuff? I can tell you took Drafting classes

Had the foam board lying around from a previous project and after seeing 6th's rules for this I figured I might as well, I've got a few las cannons floating about from sentinels also so I will get a few more shots after its painted up and las'd. As for the drafting classes? Hehehe don't know if that's a compliment or sarcasm but thanks

Cool, i may try this for my infinity

Awesome, going to clone it asap.

just a little update, doesnt really add to tutorial but it belongs with the aegis so i thought i would post it here, decided to make an icarus cannon to accompany the line, a few pics so far

Looking good, more to come I hope?

Nice idea to save some money! Thanks for posting it.

If you wanted to cut the sections into smaller segments (to give you more configuration options, you could use paperclips inserted into the base side foam as a stabilizer/stand, and they could be removable for ease of storage.

I happen to have been working on a similar project.

You could try making it multi-layered, or adding a support brace in the front or back so it won't tip.



Armor plates for a little more detail wouldn't hurt either.

Hmmm. I like the dimensions. I think I will try to use them with the "bent" configuration like the wall system is.
Very nice. Thanks

That helps to i am ready to make my onw Aegis http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izFMg7-CfOk
