looks great pat.  Is that a recon droid up there on the top?  I love the added guns and the blast effect.  The grey pannels look great.  The rust isn't realy noticable at first glance though, I had to realy look for it...

I have to say pat it is looking really good, the rust is a great idea, did you hot glue the blast effect our self or is it from another toy.

that is look great Pat well done buddy!!! would you want to add some mud to the bottom side of the tank from the repulser drives splashing up?

A well-built sniper rifle is a beautiful thing. Ours has two zoom modes, "Up close and personal" and "Hello, you're dead

Thanks guys!  That rust is meant to be very subtle, I don't want the Empire's machinery to be in poor upkeep!  That blast effect is part of the Jango Fett from AOTC Saga figs, and the explosive part, I can't remember where that came from!  But they were combined with super glue and then the peg was filed down to fit into the front of the cannon.

As for the mud, that is something I've been kicking around as well.  I'll have to try to give it a light coat of it on the underside just to see how it goes.
