King Crab -007, Mauler 2R, modified Jackal and others
« on: 12 November 2017, 03:00:54 »
Made a davion-esque lance centered around the King Crab, painted up in the colors of the blue crab.  Also featured is a Comstar-ish lance with some late model units.  Modified the Jackal's legs and gave it a bit more of a Satyrish look using legs from the Balius.

Its the newer Bombardier,as stated earlier, modified to the 14C spec.  The King Crab replacement legs were just bridged to the central housing with some shaped styrene rod.  I wish they weren't as integral for removal purposes. :)  It was pretty fun mixing and matching different legs for the various King Crabs I've built so far.

I was basing the scheme off of the Acguy and wanted a third color to help it pop.  Unfortunantly all I could think of was Wolverine for an earlier custom  paint scheme for the collar part. :)
