i think everyone here has heard of the [very] popular videogame HALO right? well, is there some enterprising mold-maker/ really talented scratchbuilder out there that wants to make a model of the Pelican dropship that is commonly seen in the game. References are very abundant on the web, shouldn’t be too hard. A search on Google will bring up tons of line drawings, and sketches, not to mention tons of pictures and game screenshots.

Anthony, why don’t you take a shot at it? Could be fun. And the game is popular enough you could probably sell the master and have it kitted.
Some other cool things would be warthog,scorpion tank or that small purple flying craft.
I just bought an xbox and halo the other day and having some fun with it.
that “small purple flying craft” would be a “banshee”.
and i would like to personally welcome you to the world of fun, teamwork, and wiolence in HALO. Happy alien hunting! =]

and i will try to keep that in mind, maybe when i take a break between kits, this could take a while.
scorpion tank would be cool
I’ve thought about this too. I was always lookin for a hog model out on the web but never found one. So I wanted to scratch it, but I have no experiance with scratch building.I didn’t want to mess it up so I just gave up.
Scratching a warthog probably wouldn’t be too horrible of an experience. I wonder if wheels from a HMMWV kit would work…
I do a lot of scratch building in all sorts of topics . I build aircraft, ships, trucks and especially sci-fi. My last one was a 6ft long hospital ship from Star Wars and I am in the middle of a truck model in 1/10 scale of a British Army Foden Wrecker. My main problem is that I live in the U.K not the U.S . If you want to e-mail me for more info then please do.
