New Grav Scouts spotted in Old Detroit





Two new grav scouts show up in Old Detroit.
 These are my latest additions to my Tomorrow's War forces. A third command variant is in the works and will be posted with finished paint jobs and appropriate bases. I will also post a how I did it with pictures.  I think this is a major reason I like this game, I love to kitbash.

  2. Hi Dan,
    They are my kitbash, a diecast Tron's Legacy "Clue's Command Ship" and a Micro Machines "Star Wars Trade Federation AAT. Scales are unknown, I use them for 15mm. I found the Tron thing at Target and the Micro Mach AAT at a collectors store.
    One of the club members had brought the diecast Tron ship to a game and I couldn't put it down. I knew what I wanted to do but couldn't find the right turret. I had intended to use the turret only and use greenstuff to build up a crew compartment ahead of it, but I needed them for a game and decided to include the crew section of the AAT .
    Personally I feel there is an aesthetic conflict. I plan on making a command version that will carry a 5 man team. When that is done I will post a "How I did it" on my blog.
    I am considering doing a series of vehicles based on the Tron hull style. I just need to reconcile the aesthetics, something more angular similar to the hull.
    Odd I had just sent you an email on your Colonial Marines.

    Thanks for your compliment
    David
