I got a PoC Fury a while back and really like the idea of the Cobra Metro Armored Dvision so I started creating vehicles for my Alley Vipers to go with the MAD idea. This little tank I call the Cobra Tantrum and imagined it would be ideal for clearing and securing small alleys to prevent the main force from being flanked as they advance in urban settings. This is made from one of the small vintage Empire Strikes Back laser tanks. It was yellowed badly and missing the bubble canopy so I trimmed the cockpit ring down to show a bit more of the driver and then painted it with Krylon Fusion satin burgundy and black and used Testors flat grey on the interior and undercarriage. Decals are mostly from a PoC Crimson HISS and a bit of whatever I had on hand.

Thanks! I figured since the mini rig was in such poor condition this would be a good way to breath new life into it.

Bro! this is really cool. Your customizing reminds me a lot of what Blood Brigade does. You both do amazing work man.
This is a very neat idea and I love the paints |
