[Andre Teppers]

Hi all,

I do not know if I should post it here, if not remove him

The construction of this beast is ready to paint

Cheers,
Andre

The first painting is a fact

I don't know why you'd question if you can post this here, by all means post away!

Hi,

Meanwhile the little bug is to dry, we started to design the ground where he comes up to float
The intention is for a kind of march landscape.

Cheers,
André

Andre,
This little hover baby, looks mean and nasty.
Great job.
You can support my Engineers in the battle against those
pesky "walker tanks". :laugh:
You can re-supply anytime you need to at one of my Bunkers.
Just let me know when you are coming in and we will shut
down the defenses. Wouldn't want one of those trigger happy
kids to cook off a round or two in your direction.

That is looking hot ....and i like the way you are carrying the theme over to the ground work very creative.

If it's hovering, how are you going to suspend it?

Bob,
He's going to wire it up and have the duct fans really work DUH... :laugh:

Thanks for posting these. I've wanted to see one since I saw it announced. It looks very cool. And the base is very clever, though too much like my mattress. Now I know it's worth the cost if I can ever afford one.

Rob.

Andre,
Looks great, the weathering is spot on.

Andre,

Your weathering so far looks better than the box art! Really!

[Andre Teppers]

Thanks for the nice reply

Bob, that's a nice honor to hear

Hi all,

The first part of the wheat ring from the top of my "Bug" is done
Hope you like it the affect?
It is the first time I do it this way!

Cheers,
André

Hi Andre,

'Scuze my ignorance, but I don't really know what a hovertank is and what it's "environment" would be... but I do admire your weathering technique (wouldn't it be more of a light'n shadow painting technique...

could someone please elaborate...) . In short: your little critter is looking good

- could you tell us "non-iniciateds" a bit more about the context to which a hoovertank belongs to...?

Cheers and please let us have some more of your cool build!

The look is exceptional, Andre! I really like the shading and would appreciate some step by step pictures and or description of how you did it. Keep going!
