The nose you sketched reminded me of something, but i couldn't think what. After a while I realised I was thinking of a cattle guard on a train.
Sorry.
I agree. It looks good without the nose. However, a train mod would be kinda cool.
;eave the nose off. It's like the sphinx: doesn't need a nose
i vote no on the nose, but it would look nice maybe if you had it go from the top to floor instead?
Great ideas though ! I am still not 100 % sure about the nose, so many pro's and con's. So i'll take a break ....
naaaaaaahhhhhh couldnt do that to you !! So here is the first part of the detailling.
You know my previous mods, so this will not surprise you ..... or will it?
How to make Laser-guided Missiles.
Take the cheapest ballpoint pen you can find from the dollar shop.
OMG, who BUYS these things? ( uhh me? )
Add some polystyreen ( Vikureen )
and fantasize some wings and a tail on to the pen.
First layer of matte-white paint.
Total 3 layers for max coverage.
From my kit-bashing stock, I could really use these decals.
Fantasy lettering on the areas that will be visible.
Made a hole for the laser-wires.
I painted the topcap in fire engine-red, added some block-decalls and fitted it all together.
Last test if it still burns on 2 x AA batteries. ( can also be 5 V from PSU )
Ready to engage !
Nice! Now just add some tiny solid-fuel engines in there and you're set! :D
