Hi guys, I bring to you my last project finished in this week, it is a Tank called Chinese Cookie I made inspired by the "Desolation" visual identity.

I hope you all like, I had some fun creating this.  ;)

I agree, the paint work and accessories you added are nice. On the front page.

Excellent craftsmanship! I'm really enjoying this thread! Some great paint work all through! Is that a Cobra Gunship I spy at the centre ? :)

Very nice.  I'm actually going to be starting a modified Hiss Tank soon that will result in something very similar.  I was really going for the more standard tank look with a turret mounted on top like yours!  I'm glad to see one done that looks so good, more motivation to get mine put together.  Great work, looks awesome!

Hi guys, thanks very much for the comments, and of course to be in the front page again. =)

Hi Ray, the main structure belongs to the latest HISS Tank released.

Very nice.  I'm actually going to be starting a modified Hiss Tank soon that will result in something very similar.  I was really going for the more standard tank look with a turret mounted on top like yours!  I'm glad to see one done that looks so good, more motivation to get mine put together.  Great work, looks awesome!

Nice! I hope you show us this project soon. If I can provide more pics from different angles to help you, just let me know.

What did you use for the top turret?  If you could get a picture from an above angle to see how you positioned it that'd be cool.  I don't know yet what turret I'll use...  I've got a few  to pick from.  I'm hoping to get some work done on it within the next few weeks.

I used the original turret from the original set: http://www.yojoe.com/vehicles/12/hiss/ You can check a top view in the link, but here is another pic of this angle:

well I feel kind of dumb.  I didn't realize that the newest version of this had the turret included.  shows you how rare the new gi-joe toys are in my area!  (and how behind I am at keeping up with what is being released!).

I was thinking when I first saw this that it was a modified version of the original POC line HISS tank. 

Your weathering job and all the other added details are still fantastic.  Very nicely done.

Hey guys,

Take a look at my last work, a car called Rusty Runner inspired by Death Race modern movie series.

Wow, what a great vehicle. Love the Death Race Movies. Matter of fact gonna watch a new one tomorrow. This vehicle would fit well in the JOE Verse and Zombie or Post-Apocalyptic verses too. Expect to see it on the front page tomorrow.

Welcome to the front page. Almost forgot how great this would fit in with Mad Max verse too. So many verses for this great vehicle.
