This series was inspired by Chris Roe/Mel Ebbles Luna Base series of vehicles and paint scheme. I have always been fascinated by mars and colonizing other planets and I love Jim's Terra force minis, so I figured I could do my own paint scheme and storyline and voila! the "Canal Rats" were born. The first thing I did was a Percheron recolor from Genet Models. This helped me work out the insignia and colors. I absolutely love the "Perchy" It has always been one of my favorite models and was fun to mod. The next I did was a recolored Onager. I have to print and build one and photograph it as my last one was destroyed by Catzilla. After that I started working on modding and recoloring the Basic Terra Force troops. It took awhile but I finally got them done. Up next in the queue will be the Terra Force Heavy Weapons and Special Weapons guys. After that I'll work on some more vehicles like the Pinzgauer! Its huge, but anything worth doing... I have also been working on an Umbrella Corp mod for the Pinzgauer for this years Papercuts. I still have to plan out the diorama, but that's half the fun. Here's a pic of the Perchy until next time.

You know, that Police Tactical I did a while back for the Hoards would look pretty good in Mars red

That looks awesome! I love the Percheron too, it's a great model (I need to build another). The 421st are also an awesome recolor of the Terra Force (I really need to get them cut out lol)! Umbrella Corp! Don't let my wife hear you say that, she's a huge fan of anything Resident Evil hahaha!

Umbrella Corp! Don't let my wife hear you say that, she's a huge fan of anything Resident Evil hahaha! They were a ton of fun to do. I ended up modding the commander, sniper and medic with different heads and just recolored everyone.
