Phill,
Well, you delivered on the surprise element alright!
But then it could fit the world it is on, or it could be a warning like some poisonous toads. Either way, it is one striking scheme. Will be interested in what you have in store in the way of weathering for this monster.... errrr.... BEAST!

Howdy Bob mate ,, to be honest i am undecided to how to weather this thing .. its gonna be heavy thats for sure but not sure what type i want to use .. still got to add some battle damage to it yet ..that should turn out pretty good .

Phill: This is totally awesome!! I can't believe I missed it until now. Absolutely love the weapons package and the camo is spot on. The customer should be satisfied.

Zon ,,you couldnt be more right ..the customer loves the thing .. he knew i was going to do a job on the camo cause i wouldnt tell him what i was going to do .
Hes happy its looking the way it does and yep he loves the weapons package too .
Jeff .. hopefully this weekend i will weather and damage the beast and then finish it totally then its on its way to its new home and i get some shelf space back bloody thing takes up to much room

Domingo ,, Thanks for that mate ,, well The Beast is made from 4 Russian tanks and a rather large pile of sheet styrene ,,,why it was made ? well why not ?
The customer i built this four brought 4 20mm Vulcan rotary cannons and once i saw those the old mind went to work ,,from there the Beast was born .. big is good .bigger is better and there's no doubting that fact the Beast is big .
The more the ideas flowed the more he liked it .
Now thats the idea story ,,the make believe story is entirely different

Phill, thanks for the explanation. I have to say, you are truly creative! I was wondering how this BEAST would turn out to be with your final painting techniques...
