Wow very nice.
Excellent work Bio-Dorc, could you show some top, front, bottom etc shots ? what was the inspiration for the design ? a very aggresive looking vehicle very well executed thanks for sharing. Karl
With the near completion of the basic structure of the craft I have started adding details to the neck and started building the engines…
Added a bit of mechanical detailling to the neck of the craft
The brass rotatable engine outlet with guide vanes…
The forward section of the engine
By request I will add sum 3-views very soon. [8-]
Amazing work. Keep it up! [:)]
That is soooo nice! Very inspirational work.
Did you make coils (or use springs) for the flexible-tubing-like stuff? I’ve been wondering how to get flex tube in small sizes, and looking at what you did it occured to me I could coil it up at any size I want.
Can’t wait to see it done. How much time do you think you have in it so far?
DUDE! That is looking GREAT!!! I wish my project would take shape like that.

I just turned into a modeling ameoba
Sum mor pics concerning the engine… [:p]
Engine fully assembled and base coated… A bit of test fitting as well.
Engine airbrushed with a gun metal color and dry brushed with a slightly coppery
color to balance the engine outlet…
Wow, this is one VERY impressive piece of work. Please keep us posted. This is one project that is clear to see the level of care and dedication commited to it. Thanks for sharing.
Fantastic work…incredible!
Sum more progress, this time concerning the engine covers and intakes…
After the engines and pods are finished I hope to start building the canopy…
On an earlier question, I base my design on shapes I find interresting and combine them to reach something desireable. In this case it was inspired by a Knife fish (weird fish, no tailfin, just hovers around lazily, quite kewl…).
Concerning timeframe: I have been busy for about three months, but would be finished by now if it weren’t for real world responsibilities… [V]
PS Thank you for all the compliments, I will post som new pics veri soon…
[bow] impressive! [bow]
Great project Bio-Dorc.
Cant wait till its done.
Keep it up.

I have finally finished with months worth of work-related projects and can proceed with my concept! Argh! This model has been in dry dock for AGES.
Anyway… Added some high caliber impact craters.
Built the mechanism for the twin gattling guns in the nose as well as some
panel damage and fatigue… Enjoy…
I really hope to finish this guy very soon. I would luv to start on sum new ideas
knocking around in my skull for the past few months…
This is great! Looks like a lot of fun.
Can you post a sketch of what this thing will look like from the front? It’s too hard to wait…
Looking forward to the finished piece.
As requested - Front and slighty oblique back view…
wow!!
Most impressive so far…Looking forward to seeing more pics…
cheers
Mike
Incredible work, BioDorc…cant wait to see more.

Did quite a bit of work on my HoverMech this weekend. It is nearing the finish
of it’s construction (YEAH! [:D]). Then I can start with the painting and aging…
Started work on the canopy…
Some tape to hold the glued panels together.
Finished canopy.
Dry fitting of the canopy. Still have to paint it before I add the glass as not
to see the white insides.
Putty and sanding… I HATE SANDING…
