"Tumbler" NATO's Future fast attack vehicle

[danb]

Hey chaps here is another project im working on in between others this is a build i work on when the others get boring i recently got inspired to build this vehicle after seeing another modeller use a 1/35 scale Tumbler from the film The Dark Knight (Batman) he produced a future fighting vehicle using parts from a Trumpy Stryker for detail.

So my idea it will be a fast attack fighting vehicle of the future i will using a Tumbler model from Revoltech no construction needed comes complete for detail im using plasticard sheeting and parts from a Trumpeter Stryker Command version and some resin Hummer wheels.

I have stripped the kit of all the parts i wont need and sanded the panels ready for gluing parts then the wheels were attached before i could start on the body work im 50% through the build stage so far.

The kits im using

Revoltech 1/35 Tumbler



This kit will be used for detailing



Progress so far









Updates maybe slow as this is a side line project

Very cool look to this one Dan, big and mean! The addition of the RWS really gives it a punch.

[deafpanzer]

Sorry to say this but I like this better than what I have seen on Batman movies... how clever... how creative!!! Another winner to my eyes...

[kaytermarram]

Finally this has to happen... The Design of this thing is too cool not to think of it as an AFV. And how good it looks with all those new added details and the superb paint job. Great work!
