Star Wars, hover tank commander with partial cupola - 1:12

Hi All,

Recipe.

Figure - this is Hasbro’s BS 6" hover tank commander which I repainted using Vallejo Paints.

Cupola - this section was made up of foam board for the base then plastic card glued over that and then I scratch built everything except the modified DLT-19 which has had the butt removed and pieces from the Bandai Sandtrooper kits to complete it and I weathered and painted it using Vallejo paints and pastel chalks.

These are all very very good …very accomplished work :+1:

I’m loving these adapted figures in new settings.

I’m impressed the old MG42 lasted that long into the future! :slight_smile:

Do we think they’ll still expect the TC to expose his upper half to incoming fire just to operate an external weapon? But it does make a cool-looking display…

Accuracy has regressed in the future. Strange for people to hit the vehicle let alone the TC.

Another good build Ron. :+1:

That’s true - Stormtrooper range practice ain’t what it should be! :slight_smile:

But the builds are excellent…
