TX-225 Imperial Tank

[Haui]

Here i start with my interpretation of the TX-225 Imperial Tank from Rouge one
The Body is 3d printed and now begins the fun

Very nice craft.
What's the scale of your print?

 

[Analyzer]

Very cool!. I like all the scratch built details you are adding as well!

I'd love to get one of these in 1/72

Very nice craft.
What's the scale of your print?

Fantasy Flight games has one that is in roughly 1/48 scale and they have Stormtrooper squads you can use around it for anyone looking for a commercial kit option

 

[Bouq]

Thanks Analyzer. Is it the scale that Haui used?

I used the FFG battle droids to mount on my AMT Corporate alliance Droid tank in a Battle of Kashyyyk diorama few months ago.
This range of kits and figures are really accurate and fit good with 1:48 kits

 

[Haui]

The Tank is 15 cm long that's nearly this size. I know the one from FF-Games and it look really cool but i want to my own thing

 

[Analyzer]

For the question of scale,I believe at 15 cm that puts it at 1/48 since the supposed length of the tank is 7.3 meters

I agree with your computation Analyzer!

I started with the background .

 

[Analyzer]

That looks like a great place for an ambush!

 

[Haui]

Added the base coating.

 

[Haui]

So it's going on. Everything in Alu

the Colour of the Tank and chips and scratches

 

[Analyzer]

Weathering effects look great!

What base color did you use for the tank?

 

[Haui]

First i used a light gray primer. then Aluminium.
After drying the chipping medium and the color is a mix of panzergrey and light gray

Are those bubble tape containers for the shield generatory thing?

 

[Haui]

The generatots are boxes from a hubabuba bubblegum.
