I picked up a Rolling Thunder off Ebay for cheap. I decided to do some customization. It's not done (see missing parts). If anyone has ramps, an extra turret seat, or the big cannon, please hit me up.
The second pic is the ebay auction listing pic (to see what it was when I got it). What's still to go? I'm going to airbrush the cobra logo on the vehicle in a couple of spots, get and paint the missing parts, and some more touch up detailing, possibly build a hitch/trailer to pull another weapon. |

COOL idea! I always though of this thing being more of a Cobra vehicle...the joes really did not need ICBM cluster dropping massive missilles toating base, it even has cobra like features with the way the body and windows are layed out...finish it up, I wanna see the final render

and if anyone has an airbrush gun, do yourself a favor and buy the transparent airbrush paint. It went on really nice to tint the driver compartment windows blue.

I did a little airbrushing on there. I made a stencil and put the cobra logo on the bomb doors. I wanted to stencil smaller logos on the sides of the vehicle, but the logo was too detailed to cut a decent stencil and not have it look too junky.
Anyway, still a work in progress. |
