I need some hints on how i can make it look different.

I have an old Chimera Chassis, a heap of IG bits, and i'll soon have a broken leman russ to work with.

depends on how far you wana scratch build!

I want it similar, but with extra stuff, maybe make the top bigger, and add a lot of computers inside of it (make it openable) , i dunno yet.

heres my russ

fat turret
chrimera body



turret





all simple no fuss

that gives you ideas Tony

How much of a Chimera and how much of a broken Russ? Will you have enough tracks to double them up, especially if you add track guards so you can get away with using less links.

What type of Russ and armament were you thinking of?

Well, if you really want to scracthbuild there's always Jase's chimera based command tank for inspiration (the one he entered into GD), which is probably the best model tank I've ever seen :D

requesting that jase puts up a pic

Your wish is my command BTE ;)




Taken from the Games Day thread; hope you don;t mind me posting them here Jase.

hey wally; that Russ turret conversion is sick; im thinking about retro-fitting that on my russ.

Of course Jase's command vehicle is sick, but it looks way too busy to me, like a huge fire magnet

Its sick or Slick?

You made your mind up yet Tony?

Im planning on making a satalite dish on the top or something like that. Maybe add a flag or something. Might also scratch build a good portion of it :D as i have found heaps of plasticard on ebay :D


Thanks for the ideas guys, your tanks look mad!

Sick in a good way... guess that slang is too 1998. As I mentioned, its definitely cool, and the plasticard body works perfectly. gl with the command vehicle tony, hope to see it come together
