My first suggestion is to scrap this project and send the parts to to me! haha but seriously I love the off set design so far and the parts you are working with.What is the bae vehicle? The front reminds me of the hydra but have never had one in my hands so not sure. I would remove the missle launcher and use the hole for an astromech for sure. I think it would be awesome to add a vertical wing that could fold down like on the V-19. It does need something else, I useualy get out all my fodder and just see what works by holding it up to the vehicle if I don't have a design in mind when I start. Can't wait to see this come together.

I think the base is just a part of an old GI Joe vehicle. I got it for free from a toy store near my house.

Ok I put some foam in the hole and inside so an astromech can fit in there.

This is looking great! The droid socket adds a lot to the vehicle, imo. If you don't have anything to use for the vertical wing I suggested, I would just go with what you have. It is looking good and you could just add a few small bits and get ready to paint it.

Why the hell did I not pick up an AMP suit when I had the chance? Now I can't find Avatar stuff anywhere!

I'm with Spry - I think add a few little extra greeblies on the thing and lay into it with the paint!  And yes, putting a droid socket in there "makes" the vehicle, to me.

Ohhhhh, CloneSniper what do we have here then!

This new project is nothing short of AWESOMENESS! with lashings of Awesome strapped to the side on a rocket fuelled by Awesomeness!!!!!

Your choice of parts is excellent, this is going to be a classic! Be sure to e-mail me images when you are done as I feel an artwork sesh on the way.

Keep up the excellent work.
