RC BSG Landram project

I am using this pic as a model, so I will be going with the basic grays for the colors.



I didn't think the music was of the A-team, but it could be

All it said in the youtube music section was
Prelude To Battle-UPPM
by Ron Klein, Udi Harpaz

 

[Rhaven Blaack]

Regardless of the music, you are going a FAN(FRAKKING)TASTIC job on this project!!!
KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!!

:driver1:COOL DRIVIN'!:driver1:

Too bad we already had X-mas..!

HOLY COW, THAT'S AMAZING!!!

@ RB: I love it when a plan comes together, but the music is definitely not from "The A-Team". Surely the composers must have been inspired by the show..! :mrgreen:

I am currently working on the lights.
Six in the front nose.

What should I do for the top lights?? pics show 4 in some and 2 in others.

 

[Revell-Fan]

The prop department used six big front lights and four smaller top lights arranged in two pairs. When the two top twin lights are lit up they appear as two big single lights because of their brightness. So you (falsely) believe there are 4 in some and 2 in others. There are always 4.

 

[stilgarhammer]

Gads more work.

 

[Revell-Fan]

But it will looks much better! The attached pic shows how the different lenses, lighting and angles change the appearance of the lights.

beginnings of the lights..

still working on a case to make them look rectangle.

 

[stilgarhammer]

Little update..

Windows have been done, ready for cam.

lower front lights have progress. Holder is done and mounted. still have the face to make and install.

upper lights are in the works.

 

[Revell-Fan]

They could be a little bit brighter. Even though, it looks fantastic!

 

[stilgarhammer]

They ARE bright, had to angle the ram to keep from washing out the cam. the first pic I took was all white :cry:

new pic.


next up is the white lens things.

 

[Revell-Fan]

Oh, right, I forgot. A similar thing happened when I was photographing my Cylon Raider (from -surprise!- Revell :mrgreen.

Your Ram is breath-taking! :thumb:

 

[stilgarhammer]

Progress on the ram will slow now, I have other projects needing my attention. The last detail I will add is the white covers for the LEDS, then it will sit until I get caught up on other projects. Then I will work on more detail. Coming soon will be a couple vids on the ram moving and a screen cap of the cam working.

Until then here are a few more pics...

 

[Revell-Fan]

Wow. I am speechless.

 

[stilgarhammer]

New vid, still need cam and body mounted, and light detail.

jawdrop I WANT ONE OF THESE! jawdrop

( And now STOP IT and switch to the REAL thing in 1:1 scale! :mrgreen: )

 

[stilgarhammer]

I can make one, if I had $750,000 US and buyer pays actual freight.

biggest challenge would be to find the right snow cat.

 

[Rhaven Blaack]

That is PHENAMINAL!!!.
KUDOS to you on a FINE JOB WELL DONE!!!
