The Red Rocker

[The Willoughbian]

Now the All-purpose Science-fiction Heroine has a worthy ride.

 

[Dark Horse]

It's amazing how some paint makes it look instantly steampunk.

 

[K-Tiger]

Fess up, I wasn't the only one coming in here expecting red, yellow and Sammy Hagar.


I think it could use some landing skis.

I was thinking the same thing.... can't have too much chrome on a spaceship.

 

[Monkeywrench]

Very Cool!

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

That's cool!...it's very fitting...

Beautiful paint work...the wash looks great...

 

[The Willoughbian]

Thanks, guys. I'm glad you dig it.

 

[lancelot]

can she fit inside it?

 

[The Willoughbian]

can she fit inside it?

Yeah. M.E. figures will fit. I just don't like posing her too much. The Silver paint on her armor is Tamiya brand and it scratches rather easy.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

Yer title reminds me of the what the rocker in this pic would be if the girl was menstrating...

 

[fogger1138]

I like it, although I agree with K-tiger that it could use some skids.

 

[Keenan]

That is excellent. Great paint aps.

 

[The Willoughbian]

I like it, although I agree with K-tiger that it could use some skids.

But It's VTOL like a rocket.

So she just drops it down on the ground with no landing gear? Right down on the missiles/rather delicate-looking undercarriage?

Either that or directly on the nozzles. It's a problem either way.

 

[The Willoughbian]

It stands up on end. The tail folds up and it sits on the feet on the nozzles.

See?

 

[fogger1138]

So it's going to superheat whatever it lands on before landing?

 

[The Willoughbian]

Besides, When I'm playing with it, It is flying and killing stuff. Not sitting around with landing gear deployed. I could see making a stand that looks like gear for display.

 

[fogger1138]

Ah, good point. She's more of a "soft SF" ship anyway.

 

[K-Tiger]

So it's going to superheat whatever it lands on before landing?

Yeah, I'm not buying it, either. Even the Germans designed the Triebflügel with landing gear.

Guess that was part of the reason I left joe vehicles for the 1:18 world, just too many technological oversights. Anyhoo, it's inadvertently starting to sound like I'm slagging on it.

Yeah, didn't want to come across that way either. It looks great.

You dudes and your accursed realism. It hovers when it's in park. How about that?

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

Lol...uses the same technology as a hoverboard...just don't take it over water..

 

[Dropshipbob]

That's beautiful!
