Thanks guys! Definitely keeps me motivated!


Smokey got most of yesterdays attention back on the Jump today. I have the "T" pipe for the wires and the wires themselves just haven't assembled it yet.

New update!
Transistors section has been started. It's still rough and yes it's a little crooked. Was in a hurry to get to thirsty thursday in the Joe section.

That vertical pipe definitely needs to be shorter.

curious to see what you do for the harness, grips.

i never finished my glider because i couldn't figure out what to do.

Something a long the lines of an Alice pack though not as thin-framed. There'll be very little detail on the other side of the pack cause you won't be able to see it once the harness frames are on.

You could always find a good 1:6 Vietnam era ruck, borrow the frame and straps from that and slightly mod it with spare model trees (like the extra stuff that comes with model cars, planes, etc.) to get the right look. A trip to TRU to look at 1:7 scale motor cycles should help out with the grips.

Looking good Mando!

Been in work mode wrapping things up to get more things rolling. Did do a little more work on the JUMP.

Just started the detail on the right tank, also put new pipes in the tanks. They're uneven but they're getting caps put on the ends so it won't matter. Barring some tweaks I'd say she's 70% done.

Awesome work, Mando!

It's always nice to see what you're up to, you're always doing something that's nostalgic for me. You gotta make a custom Flash figure to go with this thing!

Thanks, Die! Flash and Grandslam have moved over to the short list so all in good time. I'll probably go silver pads on GS though.
Also you gotta make a thread for your Joes, Cobras, and 'Noks!
Zandar & Zarana? hell yes
