Whats up.

Well at the moment not much. But I do have one of Simon's awesome Highlanders on my desk. This guy has some serious casting skills and Im looking forward to getting his new Hunchback.
Really, if you can I highly recommend picking his stuff up if he has any left.

Now onto business.
As you may know the Catapault is going to be going into the rubber next.

Im going to have Bmbam do it again and it order to get the process started once again I need start-up capital so to that effect I will be selling two of my oldest mechs.

My Armourcast Madcat and Vulture.
Now on Ebay I can get over $200 each for these guys but Id rather offer them to you guys first.
So if you are interested drop me a line at scott.murphy@telus.net.

UPDATE Both spoken for.

Kodiaks galore

So I sold my Kodiak scratchbuild to the amazing artist David White, illustrator and designer of the MW4 mechs (including the Kodi) but as it sat there about to be boxed up I realized I really really liked this build I did and wanted to keep it.
But since I couldnt (I took his money after all) I quickly scrounged enough rubber to pour all over it and now with my LIMITED casting skills Im making a few copies.
They've  needed  cleanup of course and Ive been doing what I can to fix the bubbles and voids. Ive also been doing partial assembly.

Ill maybe get 6 or 7 before these molds fall apart. If you dont mind cleaning up resin with all the air bubbles and such give me a shout and Ill sell you one of six

UPDATE: 7 are spoken for.  No more guys , sorry. The molds just wont take it and are done.
                 Next to be kitted, the Catapault.

A Locust build.

Just a quick post for a shot out to my bud Scott Christian and his build.
Its grainy sure, but you can see the way a Locust should look. Speed incarnate.

Looking good!

Legs

Just a quick look at where the legs stand (no pun intended) right now.

I shortened them slightly to change the center of gravity and because I hated how tall it was.

You can see the plating added and where I intend to add more as per Alex's art.

Marauder in progress

So I've had  this old kit since like 03 or so . A 1/72 Robotech/Macross Commanders battlepod, which as you all know was used in Battletech as the Marauder.
The original art by Loose altered it slightly

Not by much. The main difference is the nose area and of course all the extra panel lines that, to me, made the mech seem more human in a way. Less cartoony and Alien.

I picked up this kit because I was led to understand that when built it would stand in scale  with my Armourcast kits. Well I built it and was immediately disappointed.

It was just to Robotechy and not very Battletechy. This is not my kit but one I found on the net. It builds nice but it just isnt for me.
 Sorry, I have no pics for size comparison,. but believe me, to my eye it was WAY too big. Standing like 2 inches taller over my Madcat. Not right when both are supposed to be 75 tonners.

So it went back into the box and away until I could figure out what to do with it. I paid over $100 for it after all.


Until I saw this painting by Flyingdebris.

And that did it. The old Imai kit is being transformed with this pic as the main inspiration. My final build wont be a perfect match but Im using it for a guide and this is where Im at now.

Im on the way.

A sneak peak

Any idea what these may be for?
