That is so awesome. Fantastic work.

Thanks! But this is only because the original design was so inspiring.

Many thanks to you for showing us such a piece of art!

[Xigfrid]

somehow missed the results of this thread but it aint too late to say.... thats a beauty!

It really shines next to the Sv-262: it helps the gold to pop out

Wow... your works are out of control awesome! Keep them coming

I always felt the legs were to "flat" on my Workroid. And I always  wanted to make small fixes to one of my favorite design in Delta. So I just updated the design on Shapeways to what I call the "renewal version / version 2". I only tested the new legs design. I will be testing the new arm articulations when I receive the parts for the Destroid since they have 100% same functionality and 90% the same aesthetics. Thanks to a better use of sprues and printing volume (I am getting better at it!), the new parts are slightly cheaper now.

Here are the major fixs:

I finally got started on this project while waiting on other paints to come in for the other unfinished ones. So far, I'm really liking the ease of building this, and the extra steel parts and rubber tires are going to make this a really fun project to complete.

@Xigfrid, I bought the same paints you used for this project. As for the stripes on the legs, are those decals also?

I am glad you like it! When I made this design, I let some room for improvements!

The stripes were made with paint and masking: yellow first, masking sides and spray metallic grey. Then masking diagonal bands and spraying black.

Ah, OK, nice. I may try that. Haven't decided between that and making decals. Decisions. Next week I buy the rest of it.

Finally finished. It took some time, but this is a fun kit to build. Thanks Xigfrid for the advise and the help on some things. I want to start on a Chetenne II next.

That came out awesome! I love the tires, they are a realistic touch. - MT

[Jasonc]

Thanks. I was going to go with light weathering with some of the scratches and paint removed, but it's not contrasting too much, so I may just make it look new.

Nice job dude!

[arbit]

That's sooo awesome. I  love this little guy.

[derex3592]

Love it! 

[Xigfrid]

Nice finish! I like this little project and you made it so great!

[Jasonc]

Thanks all. I'm really liking the design and functionality of this mecha. Xigfrid, you did an amazing job with this.
