Any ETA on the Tornado-kit?

Those are the bee's knees!

No idea what for, but must have them ...

All being well, two or three weeks.


Expecting a veritable swarm of Size comparison requests, I made myself Buzzy.




..and had another idea....





..Spiders are ALWAYS fun....






...First one to point out that spiders do in fact have more than six legs can have a set of explicit instructions and a pineapple.

I think Necron players will love the spiders.

Oooooh! Free pineapple!

The bigger the spider, the better I think. Pretty excited about where this is going.

I keep looking at these bees and wanting them, for no good reason whatsoever.

What happened to the arf tracks and bad moon flyers?

*drools*

Well, paint those Bees brown and they could be the next big delivery service transport...

Automated drone package delivery from Amazonia[code]™, your self service one stop Uni-web shop! For everything you need (and a bunch of stuff you don't)!

Hatch on backside of spider makes me think "Tachikoma"

As mentioned previously, working on those now. Hopefully out with the Tornadodo in two or three weeks.


The spider is just a bee with the engines removed and a new head. It's not been designed as a spider. I'll put more effort into it later.


Close-up of the Bees, with worky bits:



There will be alternate parts for Landed and Flight modes. And a stand.

Consoles/Tornado look awesome.

Escalators?

Do you guys only have a webstore, or do you also have a ebay store?

So. We are contemplating adding a difficulty rating on our products. Is this something that folks would find useful? In addition to difficulty, would an approximate parts count also be thing that would be desired?
Thortz?

I can usually gauge the difficulty required to build it, but it woulndt hurt me to have that on your products. In addition it might help a few other people so why not give it a try.

Plus the actual design of it looks nifty.

Parts count would be handy, but difficulty rating seems... hard to quantify. What are you comparing it to - your own products? Some benchmark?

Great stuff!

Can you show how big that cargo pod is? Compared to say a rhino or scale cargo crate?

The cargo pod is a bit larger than the carrying capacity of a rhino, so would, game wise, hold at least ten passengers. Though like a rhino, it would be a bit of a squeeze.

It's not AS big as a rhino overall, but once you remove the tracks and drivers compartment, it comes out somewhat roomier.

Cool, that's a big old bird then.

And is that a new truck lurking the back?

Sounds like it'd be big enough to use as a Helltalon if I replace the cargo pod with some bomb racks...

Any idea when that new truck will be available? I have the hots for that thing.

That truck reminds me of some of kr00za's old builds from back in the day

I'm liking the bugs and the VTOL. All of those are stuff I would want to own. Did you ever figure out a way to get postage to the US down though? That's been the number one reason I've never bought anything from your store.

A note for our overseas viewers: Our dollar (the AUD) is in the toilet right now, and our prices are effectively 30% less than what they were 18 months ago. This, combined with our regular stepped discount should make our product very attractive.

Anyhoo:

Well, While we are waiting for the Dodo and Arf track to go up on the site (nearly there... tonight or tommorow evening I expect...), and while I'm also working on a super secret project for a local game, I've been plugging slowly away at this one:





Plan is to have the budget version (smooth skin, closed windows, simplified undercarriage) plus extra add-on sets for exterior greeblies, a turret to replace the sky-light, and a full blown interior.

270mm long, 220 wide and 80mm tall.

That's mainly good for US and UK buyers; the euro has taken pretty much the same dive as the AUD, sadly.

Progress!!




And some lower angle shots.....

Dude, are those weapon chests out yet?

they are being prepared for photography as we speak.

or type.


or something.

Wooooooooooooooooooo!
Also, what you've managed to do with material you're working with is amazing.

Awww man, that is sexy as hell, it makes me want to see a ship similar to the old Ghtroc in the flesh/wood.
