Baneblade

[jarobinson]

This is my first time posting anything so I'm winging it. It seems I can only attach one photo at a time to a post. I have more but here's one.

Oh, I'm jealous, you get to play with it!

 

[ARMORMAN]

Well done!

Beautiful. The baneblade has always been one of my favorite tanks. I just haven't had the confidence to build one...yet.

Nice work!

Thanks everyone it's actually my 6th build, first one printed in color. I get a lot of help and ideas from my cousin arkon. There I used soldering wire for part of the exhaust( I didn't like the way the paper looked)

 

[jarobinson]

These tracks were very time consuming but I love them and wish all the tanks had similar options. They're just so cool and rewarding when you're done.

]Just trying to live up to the excellent work I see on Zealot!

 

[Zathros]

Those tracks are amazing, you don't happen to have a detail of how they look, each track link that is?

 

[Harkonnen24]

Looking great so far! Which turret are you going with? The standard baneblade or one of the other patterns?

 

[arkon]

cuz, you are doin great work there!those tracks and the wire detail really look the part!:thumb::thumb:

 

[jarobinson]

I can't find the extra track links I had.
I'm going to do all the top options so they can be changed out as needed. The one I'm working on now is labeled Benetbled 01, one of the options for the lower gun has a ball for the base that's giving me a little trouble. I may go with the easier option to finish it. There's so many other models that I can't wait to get to!!

 

[jarobinson]

Figured out the ball problem for I guess it's a mortar, used a marble then made a bracket for it.

 

[jarobinson]

Attached the bracket underneath the carrage.

 

[jarobinson]

All the turrets move and the mortar rotates on it's ball.

 

[Zathros]

Out of my favorite saltines too!! Excellent in and out!!

 

[Kjev]

I LOVE saltines! The boxes are as useful as the crackers are edible. It's coming along fantastically.

It's just about done, but.....my wife caught me looking at the different sites and saw a life size Link from Zelda....I managed to negotiate a smaller Link in return for all the time I spend on models. Will post results in the proper forum. Life size Link on the back burner for now but I don't think I've heard the last of that.
