Default RC Sci Fi

Its not strictly scale but If anybody is interested I've started a blog http://rcscifi.blogspot.com about my Science Fiction themed RC vehicles. I decided to combine my interest in RC vehicles and Sci Fi models into something I cal RC Sci Fi. The first one is 6x6 Creeper based rig. There are a pile more pics of the chassis plus some proposed designs for the body on the blog.
Thanks for looking.

I really like your concept drawings. They remind me of the Aliens transport vehicle... bad ass
I've been tinkering with a scifi scaler concept myself... and I'm a Maya user

Think you'll have room on your blog for another?

Its been a while but I have finally finished this Planet Creeper 6X6 project I started in 2011.

It only took me 11 years to finally finish it.

It took three versions of a body before I was happy and most of that time it sat around abandoned, while I worked on a host of other sci-fi projects. At the end of 2021 I decided to resume working on it and pushing on to complete it this year 2022.
There is a full build series on rcscifi.blogspot.com
























The photo above shows the headlights and the interior lighting being tested before the model got its final paintjob.


Thanks for looking.

Well done! Good on you for finally wrapping it up.

Was this a 3d print or Styrene?
