It looks a bit too boring (as does the normal version). How about, paint the engine covers in a dark grey, get some stickers for it maybe, and buy an old crapy chapmei chopper at TRU and pop the rotors off, cut a hole in the base on top of your vehicle and pop the rotor shaft in. Instant transport chopper.
Besides that it looks pretty cool. EDIT: Also, maybe you can add to the camo a bit more too, maybe like the old chocochip camo: http://www.airmilitaire.com/Images/B...teChipCamo.jpg

That looks great, nice work. Maybe you should have fixed a rotor on it, so its more different than the Cobra gunnship mold.

But for the spacilly (sp?) challenged, rotors would mean not buying it...yes it would look realistic, but MARS was all about unrealistic items...and this is modern day, I just wish it was bigger and could hold more troops.

Good job man. I'm doing something similar.
I'm going to extend mine though. I think it could use rotors although I like it without them. |

Plus the dropship looks like it was supposed to have rotors at some point, and I can bet down the line we will get a mold with the rotors from the Dragonhawk stuck on...

I hope not, otherwise it would just be a helicopter. A poorly scaled one at that. It's a vectored thrust craft. Yes, its mystery tech but not outside the realm of possibility. The harriers employ the same principle. I can't fathom why everyone wants to stick a rotor on the thing. At any rate, i think the paint job is good, but at the end of the day it's still a mars inc typhoon gunship, same as what cobra employs. I would have probably gone with a modded Republic gunship or modded up a NAC for your guys. Either choice would have much more troop room. Just my 2 cents. Tenken |

Looks nice, especially without rotors.
