Is this being done with a 3D printer? Oh… it's not. Hmm…. Seems so clean. How is the detail so good on the, thrusters? Thats what made me think 3D.

So what's the story on this thing? Is HT still doing a 1/12 version or whatever?

They say they are but I haven't seen any release dates as such

Hi
Just a few update pictures
Main Spine and Backbone pretty much there now

The section linking the spine with the back cockpit wall is just about there, but will add some detail at a later date, I have made the cockpit back wall to incorporate the gun turret housing for added strength

Again I have tried to make the bottom "knuckles" look like an engineered solution

I will concentrate on the "ribs" next that carry the underside plates
I will be using carbon fibre tube for the ribs
Hope you enjoy the update

Beautiful work. Very impressive, as always!

This may be the coolest and most ambitious "from-scratch" 1/6 fan made project I have ever seen. Good luck and and I can't wait to see what you do.

WOW!!! Truly remarkable work, Laborman! I'm sure I speak for many when I say that I will be following your progress feverishly!

Some news?

Some news?

There wont be any news here, HTs is not making the 1/6 The Bat, if thats what your asking. "Didn't you get the memo?"

But you should head on over to the 1/12 The Bat thread because they are supposed to be making that one, and hopefully it gets released for PO sometime this year. But no one knows yet if or when.

Just a quick update
Got a few hours yesterday to work on the model, and managed to get one side of the ribs mounted

I am using carbon fibre tubes for the whole of the rib cage, using6mm carbon for the outer tube and 4mm carbon for the inner tube
Its very rigid and very strong
