Title: An AT-'LMTV' ST
Post by: tiking on June 04, 2026, 07:55:44 PM

Now for something totally different... a kit-bashed/scratch build design. The inspiration for this build came from a 3D artist by the name of Vlad Mojaev. I found his 3D renditions on Artstation website. His work sold me to make a scale model of his 3D art. I deviated from the original design by making changes to parts and areas that I thought would be more practical. The main kit used, was the 1:48 scale AT-St kit from Bandai( a really easy put together kit). Then I took parts from a Stryker and M1078 LMTV Cargo Truck w/ Armor Cab. I modified the Armor rear cab very heavily, and integrated the rear panel doorway into the armor cab. This give it a better entry into the armor cab. I kit-bash and did lots of small scratch building to get the parts somewhat similar to Vlad's design. So I hope you like the overall look of the entire model.

Good kit/scratch-bash work, Charles!  :smiley:

Don't know the artwork but I'd be tempted to fit M2 .50cal's & Mk.19/Mk.47 grenade launchers, &, maybe, a M-197 tri-barrel 20mm auto-cannon.  ;)

Thanks. Here is is 3D rendered art work. His rear entry to the cab is different than mine. I thought mine was more suitable to the design of the overall look.:

OK, so, looking at the frontal image, we have a M134 7.62mm minigun to the machine's right side, a Mk.47 grenade launcher on its left, & a M230 30mm chaingun underneath.
