Well, redesign is probably too strong a word as I have just contemplated changing the look of the vehicles. But I'm sure that caught your attention, right Dwarf Supreme?  :;):

So, assuming I could actually get on (not off; I usually don't draw when standing...  :p ) my lazy behind and scribble some sketches would people be interested in torturing their eyes by looking at them?  :confuse:

What I'm after is a bit different look as some of the vehicles (Goliath Megacannon, anybody) look like they would trip over in the rough terrain of the homeworlds.

oh definately interesting idea!

I'd love to see Goliaths with their actual movers rather than the little tracks.  I'm with you on this one, they wouldn't really be able to move at all! I suspect there is somewhere a trailer to be towed behind colossus or cyclops.  A train track version like the German WW2 ones could be quite cool to model as well. Pops out of the squat stronhold and then back in after the battle.

Would like to see some variants on the Gyro's.. Maybe the heavier versions mentioned in the netepic book.

Who, me?  :D

Of course I'd be interested. As much as I like the Goliath, I'll be the first to admit it looks a little silly with those itty-bitty tracks. Along with the Gyro variants Enderel mentioned, I'd like to see some of the other vehicles that appear in NetEpic, but not SM2.

I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with.  :cool:

Good point, but I don't anything about what Khazari vehicles are in the pipeline. Perhaps someone can enlighten us.  :devil:

I could contribute a resin set of Ordinatus tracks and Goliath cannon to Dwarf Supreme, if he wants to tinker. Ordinarily I would offer them to Mojarn, but I'm tired of standing in the customs line at the post office.

Hmmm, that's a thought. I'm never really tried any conversions, so I'm not sure I'm the best candidate to tinker.

Hehe, I suppose I have to start somewhere.  :D  Okay, maybe I'll give it a go.

Hey, that would be great. Thanks O-man. Now the hard part: learning how to use the stuff.  :p

So, which would you like? Or all of it? My green stuff and brown stuff might be a little old, but the rest is relatively fresh.

I guess whichever is easiest to use. Fresh stuff would probably be best.
