Awesome job so far, love to see it finished up!

 

Omg, I LOVE LOVE LOVE it.

Could you do a few shots with the doors closed?

 

Awesomesauce!

 

wow! wonder where i can get an AT AT...

 

Holy shitting balls to the wall that's awesome!

 

Where did you get that model?



BTW amazing mod

 

Actually it's a toy.. The 2010 rerelease of the original but it's 4 inches taller and way more improved..

Thanks everyone for the positive feedback..

I still need to work on the base and some fiber optics from the tracer ram to the front guns

 

awsome All terrain armored transport is awsome

 

Very very nice. As a uber Star Wars fan this is something I'd be proud to have on my desk

 

Awesome!

 

I wish they were that detailed when I had mine, back in the 80's....

 

There is a video somewhere on youtube of a person in a darth vader suit taking one for a walk like a dog. I had the one from the 80s

nice!

 

How are you going to fit an ATX board into an AT case?
Is that a little to geeky?

Yet another Star Wars rig! Great idea! IMO the black/blue sleeving is better for this theme, but yours is looks great too

 

Very nice job!
It appears that you have to keep the sides open the entire time it's running though. Have you thought about making a cross ventilation fan setup? You could try replacing the side panels with Modder mesh (mnpctech.com has it) and paint it to match the exterior color. Or even a downdraft fan off the top area. It would be less noticeable from up there as well.
Again, great job, I like the whole diorama aspect of it too.

 

Thanks

And i have been toying with the idea of placing a fan uptop so here it goes

 

just a quick update... installing a fan on the inside at the top for more airflow so i can put the plexi doors on.

the more i put in this the harder it is to take apart and redo or update.. funny that LOL
