Here's something I've been messing around with lately. It started out as a happy meal toy from a video game called Rabbids. I found it in an alley. It has a new life now.
So, at the beginning...
IMG_0044I had to remove his spare tire/tyre and fill in his belly. Then I cut off what little he had in the way of arms and legs and built new ones, MaK style. The gun barrel is from a propane lighter I found.
IMG_0051Thank heavens for Aves! The arms and legs are made from various tubing with a ball of Aves to make the joints look like flexible material. I placed a wire armature inside the new limbs.
The feet were made from computer keyboard keys and half of a plastic appetizer spoon.
So now I had to make a robot hand. Once I figured out how it went quickly. Basically, I cut a section from a drop tank and sliced a groove to make knuckle joints and then between each finger.
So with some primer and greeblies I'm up to this point.
The skirt armor is from full size plastic spoons and the knee and shoulder armor is from the appetizer spoons.
As usual, I'm pondering what paint scheme to use. I'm not inclined to use the Panzer schemes used on most MaK builds. I suppose I could look up pics of wild rabbits but that seems a little tame......
Let me know what you guys think.
