I had to do away with the piston legs, too fiddly, kept bending and breaking..
and I based and mounted the walker simply.

I just hope someone sees this, learns something, and builds something cool themselves. I've learned quite a bit myself on this project.

A few more minor details to add yet, some light rivet-replacement therapy here and there...and I think then it'll be ready for paint

^ well threads like this, and the hunde des kriegs help me not only refine my ideas about my ig, but also give me some nice things to base my modles off of, i know people say not to do that, but if i dont i wont get any better (which is why there are a rare few of my many models that i am actually proud of)

VERY nice, Dave! I would second the notion of the coal bin and a rope ladder.
Also, what is it 'armed' with? I may have missed that part of the discussion.

Although I am sad that the piston legs have gone maybe used brass rod for strength next time It is am amazing piece of art this and I would be proud to own such an original piece in my collection
The basing maybe simple but works perfectly and ties in so well (is that the cobblestone sheet you had ?)
I have learnt a load from this and has answered several conundrums concerning my grot tank So BIG THANKS piping and gauges
Have you got the colour scheme in mind, I can see some decent airbrush work coming soon
As for the judging scale lets just say Dave is the master of Extreme Platircard Work

1. No, sorry, there will be no coal hopper on the back- I want it to have the scissored look,
only the Baneblade and the hellhound have fuel tanks modeled (and it's ammo for the hellhound).
2. Yes, the basing is 1/35 cobblestone streets from Miniart
3. no, it will not have the -=]_,=- logo on it
4. How does the pilot get into and out of a regular Sentinel?
5. Twin-linked Vickers machine guns

Are you going to go for classic American Railroad Grimy Engine Black, or a more British Steam Railway look?

There will be lots of brass, don't worry The photoshopping is inspired from the ones in the Imperial Armour books for sure!
It'll be mostly black, but should have color as well.
@Childe, I'm really starting to hate that pic

Which is great, except I do not agree with the author's statement (paraphrasing) that "everything" in the American West was hand-made", or locally produced. That is a bit of a stretch, the nature of the economy at the time allowed distant settlements or towns and the railroad to transport food first and foremost. Only when Man doesn't have to spend al lhis time gathering food can he ever expand or settle new territories. This is a universal law for all societies. The 19th Century in the westward-expanding US really set the benchmark for long-distance economies. The Sears & Roebuck catalog at the time, allowed you to order specialized farming machinery, household goods, and even an entire house delivered as a giant railroad-delivered kit! Images of those old catalog drawings are completely steampunk in my humble opinion.
What if they misspelled your name?

dave is building in ludicrious speed...that´s why he is able to but so much awsomeness in his creations!!!
those gauges are so sweet looking man! and i love how you kept an almost symetric look to the cockpit!
the fact that you had to redo the legs...well i guess it was about to happen as the piston legs have not really enough support in them...maybe if you had cheated and drilled them in so to speak...using tubes with a bit of metal rod inside...then this could have worked...
but the new base looks very good and i am very pleased with the look good sir...you do very well for the league mister!
cheers, vik
by the way... had to get yesterday an early nigt due to a cold i catched...
