oh....sweet...dimensions?

Dodging the ramblings of the cult of the rusty rivet leads us to some awesome new models!

Nice work!

er...does that only mean you have scrolled over the written stuff and you came only for pretty pics...well...thanks^^

Excellent work Vik, your puppy reminds me of the robot dog from the first battle star galactica series or maybe the puppy from the old Dr Who series.. I'm not sure which yet I have a mental picture in my head.

With your creation of this robot army are we to assume your mad scientist ways make you responsible for the creation of the Necrons and other similar robotic cyborgs in the future? Do you want Skynet to win?

Lol

HERESY!

That dog is so cute
And so's the gatling gunner (not sure about the pose, but I don't think the pose would be easy to make with such a model so ignore me if this is the case ^^)
I'd love to see a group shot of this lot when the squad's done

OMG Vik! R.O.V.E.R. Is absolutely amazing! Soo full of rivets and character! Bravo!

.>And the gatling gun is totally badass! What did you use for the barrels? oh, and I also love the smokestacks!

i definatly take the highway any time of the day...

Though, thinking about it, led zeppelin's "stairway to heaven" was also a pretty good song, featuring (IMO) one of the best guitar solo's ever...

at dave
many thanks mate!^^
gatling was made of a cap from a feltpen, a cap from a baking rum aroma bottle, then a curve of sprue and some PC rods...also for the front i used a thin thread of PC ...and lots of testors glue... for some reasons when facing softer plastic i use the testors and let it fully cure...then it holds quite well together... revell plastic glue would fall off...dunno...must be in the formula...

at shrike...

hae you seen the shotgunturret?... a gentlemen hound^^
the posing was a bit fiddly of the gunner...hopefully he will be cured tomorrow... i need to add some smaller items and then he is done...so full squad shot as is should happen without too much delay...

at jake...absolutly...i think some righteous smiting is in order...

at hmelrose... well no skynet for sure... but a lil squad of servicable robots never hurt...er...on second thought^^...
that dog fro m glactica even had fur...lol...nope that one was not what i used as referrence... i used mainly inspiration from jimmy neutron... and his dog (forgot the name...)

Pimp my pooch he has been upgraded dam fine machine and mans best friend I think thats doubtful now lol…. Like the weapons add and radar ears nice …...

Love the gatlin gun nice job looks pretty nifty and can kick a punch … like that makes sense but you get my gist

Still no bow tie though Hmmm you need to rectify that even if you have to build a new one for it

I have actually never understood everyone's fascination with "Stairway to Heaven". It's a decent song, sure, but the Guitar's almost plebian in complexity compared to some classical guitar, albeit executed with mastery.

nice update vik, the dog looks great, alot of nice details, as does this heavy weapon toteing robot

Here found this and thought it might work with your steam-punk theme just as militia troops
Plus might help you with the gun design

BTW vik- from where does the gatling gun recieve it's munitions? I can't see an ammo hopper...

Not everyone likes the song primarily for the guitar. But when a person wants to learn to pay guitar, Stairway becomes one of those songs most people want to learn to play. The melody/hook appeals to people.

Clearly a Gatling ray-gun, very steampunk!

So what will you be feilding these as vik? Like the doggy!

Sorry but i disagree i think Vik took a big jump over the ledge and cannon balled into the pool of insanity.
nice bots Vik nice. gatling gun is a perfect heavy bolter
yes i will keep pushing a uniek marine army.

as a matter of fact i want to challange Vik and anybody (LDD now you can have a reason to start a threat) to make a uniek count as marine army.
so as a example:
Vik - robot marine army
Fatty - Grots in power armor army
LDD - dude just make a thread already
