That is simply ace Shas. I was unsure if you were going to do the covering for the fan.

As for Zinge bits, I cancelled a pledge on KS for the X-terra and spent all that cash on some goodies. (I saved for like 5 months.) I have no worries about his product though, as the quality on this thread has been top notch.

Just felt wrong not making the covers

Zinge is a known commodity, the X-terra looks nice, seem they blendered WH40K/Gears Of War/and Starcraft with a little Halo tossed in.

I did ask what my status was, and they replied promptly, so I think they needed to make batch of fresh resin up to make my 3 Hammer APCs so I was pleased that they replied and let me know to keep checking. It has gone from order fulfillment to being made, next step should be shipped, I also think since I explained that I would be showing their products off here in my Plog, that they may doing extra care for quality control to help show their best foot forwards and to get exposure for more orders as folks see my plog and how good and easy to assemble their stuff is. I also plan on making plasticard interior extra seats for my vehicles.

Nice! Tank definitely looks usable. And the scrubbers... good idea. If I made one of those it would just sit there at the beginning of the game because its crew asphyxiated before the battle since y'know... I would forget such a useful article

Soryy been a while.

Primed 4 x4 is looking brilliant, looks more like a true vehicle than GW stuff.

The 8X8 is looking spot on too, all the little details. Love the small teardrop vision covers, inspired.

Ah, the teardrop covers are for rifle ports so the passengers may fire at targets from within.

Yes! I wanted to make vehicles that seem more workable than GW stuff.

I still need to work on head lights for the 8x8, and with the new treads, I may work on a new APC of the crawler variety. Zinge vehicle accessories though came with a cannon muzzle brake, so am torn, a tank? or a well armed APC?

The 8x8 is looking fantastic Shas Looking like becoming one of your best builds, some lovely details there. Particularly like the propulsion system.

I've never considered Zinge to be that expensive, the quality, range and service are all absolutely first class, and Kit's a really nice chap too.

Thank you Monkeytroll, as for Zinge, remember that you pay the local currency, dollar to Pound is a pretty high exchange rate. I pay 1.70USD per Pound

Thanks LDD! and for my next trick, a tracked vehicle! I have images for suggestions how to use the cannon I made that is I hope able to depress and point upwards some what.

Cannon setting 1, coaxial on the right, main cannon left
[/img]

Cannon setting 2 is opposite position from 1
[/img]

I am debating a coaxial weapon, or the laser guide system coaxialized. or placed over the main cannon?
[/img]

system is compact
[/img]

Cannon is fashioned like an old Tiger I 88mm
[/img]

Now I could go pure fighting tank, but my army needs mechanized transports, and I have already designed several well armed transports already and bought a few nice ones too!

Well that figure with the full NBC kit is hard to tell the gender as the belt is not pinching in as hard as most sculpt would do, so it leaves the figure up to the owner to determine gender, but knowing how most of the groups it might be a she under all that. As for the Not-Vault Dweller, yes, she is fully clothed if that was the one you referred to Grim,

The track is already showing it will be a BIG vehicle, I will make it a wide hull

It will be bigger than a Leman Russ by the looks of it.

with the scout tank for vehicle size comparison

And with it's other tread system companion, with a proposed width between the two

It is on it's way, but the USPS status tracker is silent, always they slack on foreign shipments for so long except when I order from Japan.
