They are great for cruching Cylons (even if they are skin jobs), and easy to clean afterwards.

Default Gunners station and turret

Here is the gunners station and turret.
Other then the size of the parts, I really did not have any problems (although, I did buile the tramram cap just in case I was unable to finish the turret).
The only other advise that I can give is, TAKE YOUR TIME!!! There is no need to rush through it.
At this scale, it is very easy to rip a part or just frak up the whole thing.

Here is the actual turret and gun assembly.
All of these parts are very fiddly.
The best way to roll the gun barrels, is to fist shape them by rolling them around a toothpick, then roll them around a long hat pin, after that, use a bambo scewer to get it back in the size you want then glue closed.
Make sure you have scored everything before you cut anythng out. Ohterwise, you could (very easily) rip or destroy the part that you are working on.

Default Finished landram

Here is the finished Landram.

For those of you who want the measurements for this model (at 1:32 scale), Length : 14cm (5in.), Width: 8.5cm (3.5in), Height: 8.5cm (3.5in)
So, it is in fact quite small.

I have sent everything to Revell-fan. After he reviews what I have done, he will release it.

I look forward to seeing how you make yours.

ENJOY!!!

Once the kit is available, I'm looking for some crazy tank builders who copy that idea and attach myriads of tiny treads to their models...! (These fiddly things can drive you mad!)

I am glad you like it.
It was a fun (but challenging) build (at this scale).

Now that you let the cat out of the bag, yes the A-TEAM LR will be my next build.

So stay tune to your local Colonial Broadcast channel for the next thread.

Now that is nice

Keep seeing you guys and your Landram builds and makes me more itchy to do a 1/18th one.

I'd like to see that. At that scale, you may have to detail the suspension a bit more, but that would be relatively easy to do.
