1/6th imperial troop transport

[the dude person]

Nice back door shots! Now how about some of the ones sithlord13 was thinking about?



Looks great! I can't wait to see the whole thing painted with the door attatched and filled with stormtroopers! Gonna be awesome!

And yes, IMO that is too picky. Looks great as is!

Na not too picky it will follow the curve round with the rest of it nicely, but it looks great either way tbh.

 

[Desert 2]

That is slick. Love seeing it all primered up. Looks almost ready to go.

 

[hemble]

More awesome WIP pics mate, the whole thing is coming together exceptionally well.

The back looks great!!!

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

SSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOO Cool. It is really taking shape now!!!!

looking at the last profile shot......it seems i should have kicked out the bottom of the door just a tad more. i may look into doing that by adding a small thin strip of balsa..............:dunno............too picky??

NEVER TOO PICKY!

Awesome work man!

 

[sithlord13]

looking really great mate- really taking shape - never have one of these but my cousin did

 

[Vivisect]

how in the hell do you work on something thinking ahh.......one less thing to do & then it winds up being more to do?.............case in point...........i start priming..........and bam..........there's all these flaws & holes/gaps that now need to be filled in. i didnt see them before...........DAMAGE!!!!!!!!!..........

I wouldn't worry about it, body work is all about priming, sanding, priming again and sanding some more till its smooth. So really most of it great for your first coat. I cant wait to see this thing finished and loaded up with figures.

Barryo that is looking so cooool and not wait to see the next lot of photos

 

[FLOSI]

Wow Barry!!! This is turning out so amazing! I never had the transport as a kid but I always loved the way it looks! Can;t wait to see it completed!

 

[Decky123]

This looks awesome already I saw this on a star wars site and found this board and then bought some sideshow figures because of this transport!! Looking forward to seeing it finished

 

[bjones833]

Dude, that is all kinds of awesome! I too had one as a kid, but no more. Can't wait to see it progress!

 

[barryo]

thanks everyone.............i've been working on the top details & it's going a bit slow with that......

but i try to do at least a little bit everyday.
and decky123...........i'm sorry i introduced you to the plastic crack addiction........

be sure to tell sideshow & maybe they can pay me a cut with more sandtroopers..................

 

[barryo]

well life being what it is & the cumbersomeness of it.......i've made a bit more progress.

i have re-thought how i am going to approach the weathering of this & decided that im going to build it clean & crisp like out of the box........then go back & weather it after i've taken tons of pics. so a repaint of what i have weathered so far is in order..............

 

[jkno]

looking good my friend!! Waiting for more

 

[bidufarewell]

just keeps getting better barryo and now we're gonna see it in showroom condition and then all weather up, amazing....can't wait!

 

[clparker04]

Barryo it just keeps getting better and better and not wait to see it showroom condition and then after it done a couple of mile's on the clock and past it from stormie to stormie

 

[the dude person]

Those top details look great so far!

very nice work, can't wait to see it all finished and painted!

And yeah, the weathering after completing it sounds like a good idea.

 

[Chakaman]

Wow, I really like the detail on this. Gonna look spot on wehn painted up, nice job!!
