Hi all! This is a project I have been working on only a little here and there and picking up parts for as I can.
I have begun to seriously hack on one of the AWE Strikers for my project. I removed the cockpit and cut off the storage trays and fender flares... This project, if I am able to see it to fruition, will also involve a heavily modified hovercraft to carry two of theses Chenowths into action! Last edited by freakintiger; 01-02-2011 at 01:45 AM.. |

More work, a better floor pan and new seats modeled after those on the 1/6 version. The seats have to be finished by grinding away
the excess 1/8" styrene... |

Thanks Keenan and 5h4rk!
Here is another pic of progress. I decided to lengthen the body and since I have found that BBI issued a 1/18 Chenowth I am going to make mine a bit different, really COBRA style. I have decided to name it the COBRA "Jackal"... |

Thanks mel357 and panzer!
More progress, now you can see what I mean about getting away from the Chenowth, trying now to go for that cutting edge prototypical look that has been a hallmark of COBRA hardware from the beginning... |
