I'm working on some battle suits and other models for my 15mm gaming, most of the currently available vehicle models are too fiddly at this scale (fine if you are only building one) and there aren't many quality 15mm vehicles out there other than mech attack, so I've come up with a compromise, 2.5 D model with some extra 'decoupage' style detailing to give depth, the torso and head are all extra layers to add a bit of depth. It's more obvious in the flesh than in the photo. The colouring and weapons are intended to make them compatible with terra force.

Looks great. The legs and arms are separate pieces, right? How are they connected to the body? Doesn't seem to be a slot-fit system.

I'm with Gilus on this one... AWESOME! I think it would work great at 30mm, too.

When you glue the body together you leave a little semi-circle flap on each join unglued (it's the grey bit) when you fold them back it gives you a circle to mount the limbs onto, just like a ball joint Should work in 30mm with extra detail, that model is only 2cm tall

That's how I did the Scarecrows I was working on for Jagged Jaw a few months ago. I based it off of some inspiration I got from Glenn Williams. That method is tried and true! I am looking forward to this fellow!

Very nice. Lamination is definitely under-used. The joint connection is very nice. Now to get rotation, I saw an idea that I need to get the image isolated so I can post it. I'll try to get to it tomorrow night.
