Ok, I woke up at 1:30 in the morning with an image in my mind. I instantly fired up the laptop and in less than 45 minutes I had the files done for this. It is part ThunderTank, part Batmobile (Tumbler) and ALL wicked! Attachments:

It took 5 sheets of paper (cardstock) and over 2 hours to build... Attachments:

Looks good. Frankly, i think that the idea of that vehicle is superior to the possibilities of Shuffler. It deserve a better modelling software.

I took detailed pictures of every step on how to build this. If I felt anyone would be interested I would post the step-by-step process. I talked to PaperMakeiT about posting my model files there in case anyone would be interested in making them. Thanks for your attention... Attachments:

Thanks, Parduz. It has been a long time since I have out-grown a computer program. Good thing Shuffler is getting updated! I think I took this to the next level (not bragging, just looking at my earlier models, and I am REALLY happy with this one).

I think I have posted pictures of eveything I have made under the Shuffler thread here under my Projects.
My next model will probably be the "Dragonfly" which will look similar to the hover things the bad guys ride in the Disney/Pixar movie, the Incredibles.
I will probably do an open cockpit like with my hover sleds.

This morning my son was watching IRON MAN: ARMORED ADVENTURES (season 1: episode 23: Uncontrollable). The Hulk shows up and they start battling A.I.M. (Advanced Idea Mechanics). Well, a wall explodes and this vehicle drives out. I saw it, and thought to myself, "That's the THOR ASSAULT VEHICLE (only with a much better weapon array)." It was cool to see it drive out over the rubble, and the wheels roll up over the rocks and debris... as it does, then arms move just like the one I invisioned a few months ago. My question is HOW COOL IS THIS?! Attachments:

I am working on that... I can't say too much at this point, but I am SURE that all of my work will be available *soon.* Just for clarification, I wasn't trying to say that they stole my idea... they released their cartoon 2 years before I even came up with this idea. The fact that I discovered this 2 months after I built it just shows it must have been a cool design concept. This just backed that up!

The fact that I discovered this 2 months after I built it just shows it must have been a cool design concept. This just backed that up! I know how it feels. I was a kid (10 years, more or less) when i "wrote" my first composition on piano. I was so proud of it, and i played it on front of a lot of parents and friends.... until someone said: "C'mon, you stoled it. Tell me the truth" (with that kind of smile you deserve to kids that lies to grab your attention). I become so angry that he took an audiotape from his car. Well, my composition was more or less the exact copy of "in the air tonight" by Phil Collins (which i did'nt knew at all). I knew i was cool 'cause i matched such an artist.... and that i can't told this 'cause it were no believable

I guess the same Muse visits various people.
I still watch that episode over and over and think to myself, "There is my THOR ASSULT VEHICLE coming out of the building."
IRONically (see what I did there...), I called my vehicle the "THOR" and a similar vehicle was featured in an IRON MAN cartoon that featured the HULK. Thor, Hulk, Iron Man... "Avengers: Some Assembly Required."
