Hi guys In between build I decided to build myself a War Walker.  So I started it. I imagine an russian ingeneer in 2050 using junk yard scraps to build a Walker on a salvaged T72 turret....Lets see what happens. Input are most than welcomed on this thread since the guy is crazy, so, I don't even know what he'll get next on there!!  Here is the progres so far! he lives in there so I got a spacious turret.  ww01 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr sawed off main gun: Old School!   ww03 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr Some firecrackers for lonesome winter nights.  ww04 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr To shoot anoying birds in the sky, an automated MG...Always usefull.  ww05 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr For the brats that steal his potato (for vodka I suppose) A old but faitfull 50 cal. should come in handy. The antena is for the polka!  ww06 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr ACW Hope you'll enjoy! Phil. |

Neat concept! Looking forward to seeing you bring this one to life Phil! Being a 'what-if' makes it very open-ended and liberating. Have fun with it. |
