Got a little bit distracted just now and started on a quick experiment: evil sprue! Basically an upgrade kit to turn my tanks evil. First up: spikes. Will probably try to include some other elements in there eventually.

Oh spikes good idea, you could have various designs on a sprue.

One thing that I have always had trouble with though is the fact that such decoration would get in the way of turret rotation and fields of fire. Such embelishments should not interfere with how a vehicle can operate, deacon did well with this on his helborn vehicles with small spikes.

Just my thouhts on the matter.

LOL!

In the meantime, I've started working on the upgrade sprue. First up, the extra armour and missile launcher.

I guess it would be a type of reactive armour? Not sure yet, just thought it looked cool.

Got you it's an idea, maybe you could create an armour options sprue with two or three different types of armour plates.

That's sort of the plan yeah. I'd also like to do an 'evil armour' which some spikes on it.
