Hello fellow modelers,

I am speaking, of course, of the Hailfire droid from Attack of the Clones. This is a resin kit from jpg models. Casting is quite good with few bubbles or molding errors. It is a realatively easy build and goes together well. My main concern was attaching the huge wheels to the body. I ended up replacing part of the tiny resin struts with wire. I still think it is a fragile bond but it is holding. I really did not see any other way to secure this as this is how the vehicle is made. Anyway enough rambling and on to some pics.

Thanks for taking a look and please any comments are welcome!

Wow, that’s cool! I didn’t even know anyone made a model of it. Nice work and I love the weathering.

Hi Gamera, thanks for dropping by. I appreciate the comments on the weathering, I still feel I don’t have it down quite yet.

I do like that. I have seen the kit on Starship Modeller, nice to see one built.
