Next: Instructions and Rover Mk. II. Stay tuned!

RF,

Great job!! :Bravo:rinks::King::King:

You know now that I think of it it sort of looks like the hovercraft from Logan's Run (a movie and a TV series). The vehicles were from the TV series.

Another Logan's Run vehicle

Thanks again for sharing your talent with us. Looking forward to the templates.

Thank you all!

Instructions are ready and have been sent to Rhaven. Parts for the Mk II have been printed and the test build will commence after dinner. As soon as the Resource section is fully working again the models will be uploaded. I may even contact Martin Saenger and ask him if he hosts them on his site along with the other Buck models.

I will be starting on the BETA test build of the Draconian Rover later today.
Yes, I will post a separate thread for such.

Looking forward to the build. I feel like a race car at the starting line!

This model is much too simple for you!

Move along! Move along!

I just noticed that I accidentally began mixing and matching the parts of the Rovers... I used the white front piece of the gunner station from the Draconian whereas I should have coloured it off-white like the base colour... Ah well, the revision was quick...

 

[Revell-Fan]

OK, now for something completely different. Something terrible is about to happen. Something abominable. There is no way around it. It has to be done. So be prepared for ...
!!!!!!! DESTRUCTION PORN ALERT !!!!!!!

Ahem. To celebrate this episode in an appropriate manner some detailed pictures of the deliberate destruction of the Mk. II have been taken.

WARNING: People with heart problems, women and children may choose to skip this post and to leave the room until the final beauty pics arrive. OK, now then...



The beginning. A beautiful Rover, with fresh license plate and certified by the technical supervisory association.

However, there is a paint error.


Instead of just giving it a new lick of paint the evil maker decided to - RIP THE PART TO PIECES!!!


He enjoyed this procedure so much that he even did it IN 3D!


OUCH!:ass-kicking:


Phew. Time for a KitKat.


AAAAND: SURGERY SUCCESSFUL!!! :Bravo: :Bravo: :Bravo:

A brand-new Rover Mk II IN THE CORRECT COLOURS!!!

Thanks for watching. Now back to topic.

OUT(FRAKKING)STANDING!!!:Bravo:rinks:

 

[Revell-Fan]

Hmm.

I am really sorry but the weather is so bad at my place that I'm unable to take any beauty pics in natural light for you to enjoy and for the front and last page of the instructions. I really hope things get better at the weekend. Till then I have switched to the Landram and make a quick revision of the turret. I will also prepare a set of formers for the Landrams which will become part of the kits, meaning that all Landram kits will soon be replaced with a newer, more accurate version. I too will combine all updates which have been published so far into the new files so that everything will be at its designated place, such as the revised lights; so you won't have to print several files and glue parts over existing parts and so on.

I fully understand the weather issue. It has been raining here (off and on) for the past week. So everything is wet. Not only that, but the area that I was hoping to take a few "nature" shots has been fenced off for construction. So I have to find a new place.
I am looking forward to seeing the new parts for the Landram. Do you have everything for the seat for the turret?

 

[Revell-Fan]

I have everything.
