Looking good Tom! I think that vehicle was meant for flight, not treads. The landing gear mod is awesome! High powered magnets you say? Where did you get them?

I got 'em at Hobby Lobby. They are rated 9 out of a max of 10 strength. I think they are 2.99 for I think a package of 12.

Looks awesome!  Interesting use of magnets for the landing gear; looking real good!

Light side, dark side...meh.  Just give me a lightsaber and a blaster and I'll take care of it!

Alright guys I just painted up my big AT-AT to look like it's been stomping through the trees of Endor. If you look closely you can see just a touch of green on the legs from stomping through the trees. I added a couple of medium sized laser burns too.  Hope you like it. And I am selling this bad boy. Make an offer.

I can still make some changes, but I think it looks alright.

Yeah the feet probably need to be redone or altered.

Looks great but the feet have way too much brown on them. It looks more like they were in a marsh where the foot pads were in mud that stopped even on every pad. I would paint those grey again and then almost dry brush that brown on letting some grey show through but more brown for just the bottom half inch. Then dry brush on some tan so it looks like some of this mud has dried and keep this very thin just barely showing up. Everything about the rest of your vehicle is just perfect though!

I was thinking the same thing about the tan color. I'll give it a touch up tomorrow.
