But no worries, there wasn't much to post anyways.
Here's the latest.
I did a size comparison with my buddy Dave's Broadsides (he's a great painter) and here's what it looks like compared to my landspeeder/lego model:
I have about an inch to shave off of the model to make it work, and I think it's doable.
On Wednesday, my riptide stand in model arrived:
For those of you who grew up in my era, you'll recognize this as Tex Rex's speeder/walker from the cartoon Bravestarr. Obviously, an action figure of the character Thirty-Thirty would have been my first choice, but alas, none was ever produced.
Upon arrival, there were two issues with this model. First, it's a hell of a lot taller than I wanted it to be. Honestly, it'll do just fine for a substitute for an Imperial Knight, but it's too tall for a riptide. So I have to figure out how to reduce the size by a lot, without destroying the model or any part of it, since I could easily use it as an Imperial Knight.
Still, the skull feature is what I want to keep. I know I can do this to fit in as a riptide. I just have to be smart about it...
