I showed the cops the goose egg my son had, and explained to them what happened.

the whole thing was strange, but the cops actually laughed and told us to have a nice day.

Nice to see those who are on THAT end of the spectrum, many people who we run into give us dirty looks. some are cool, but not alot

Her Dad called the cops? WOW. Sounds like he needs to get a life.

Soooo THIS THREAD IS NOT DEAD!

But redesigning the tracks (and the subsuquent screw-ups) had me building each track about 3 times. 4 track blocks x 3 tracks = a lot of time, and eventually getting fed up with it.

So I put it on hold to build my son's Shadowcat. Now that "little" project is getting into the final phases, I dug out the siege tank parts and finally finished the front track blocks, except for some detailing.

Here's the photos:



You can see one of my 28mm Tau troopers standing next to it for scale.

The next one shows all 4 tracks set in place:



And next to the Shadowcat:



And just for kicks, next to the Shadowcat with the Clone Trooper pilot (Commander Gree this week), just to give you an idea of the size.



The turret isn't finished by a long shot (no pun intended). I just set it on top for kicks.

Hopefully I'll have some more to add after Christmas!
