Hi Gavin
I'm not into this genre but they do look fun. I know Steve enjoyed his foray into sci-fi. Despite the fit issues you have got it together nicely. Great idea to display with the armoured car for scale. I look forward to the painting/weathering. Great scope there and hopefully the book will give you some ideas.

You are quite correct there Jakko, this one is 1/72 which will be bigger than than the 1/100 kit. This 1/72 scale kit stands about 15cm (150mm) tall to the top of the radar.That’s looking very good so far
Quick question: how tall is the model? I have Bandai’s 1:100WarhammerAttack Tomahawk, but I suppose this model would be a fair amount larger than that, so posing them together won’t work?
I very much like the Mechwarrior/BattleTech/Battlemech and the back ground story to the genre. Read enough novels and played enough games to have it well engrained in my psyche.I could, except I won’t be building a diorama with it I intend to build the model I have as a BattleTech WHM-3R Warhammer by means of nothing more than a paint job as this particular one:

If the Destroid Defender were about the same size, I could call it an RFL-3N Rifleman and pose the two together, but alas
Thanks for the support!Just seen this Gavin, some great work, looking very good indeed.
