Re: TOMAHAWK "GET YOUR GUNS"

Enough talk time to build. Started on the TOMAHAWK and step one is making the main guns. Pretty simple two parts and a polycap, however there some nasty seams that must be sanded and smoothed out of the way. To give the guns a little more character I added some metal tubing. Next will be the arm assemblies. Here are some progress pictures. Thanks for looking and comments are welcome.

Re: TOMAHAWK "ARMS UP"

Got the arms done and test fitted to the upper torso. I need to add some details and then I think I will paint the arms and guns.

Kind of a dark yellow/desert yellow color. Some of these were painted olive drab or dark green too.

I got this one off Ebay. I was lucky this one only cost me $38.00, however most of the time this particular mech runs from $70.00 and up. These are on Ebay all the time bide your time and you will get one for the price you want. The Tomahawk comes in two scales 1/100 and 1/72. Good luck in your search.

Re: TOMAHAWK "LITTLE UPDATE"

This is just a small update. I am trying add some small details the the box art shows that is not present on the kit parts. Plus I have added the missile bays to the torso.

Here are some update pic's
