Flying machine "Swallow"
« on: May 28, 2009, 03:48:07 AM »
My third entry into the conversion contest was the two man bird man contraption, I was working on it when the boat idea hit and then quit that when the giant idea hit me. Well I decided that the bird man contraption needed to be finished as I really liked what I had envisioned for it, but was sidetracked by my other ideas. So anyways here it is entry #3 the Swallow. I hope you like it, C&C welcome. steveb

Looks good so far.

Can you get any other angles (more underneath kinda thing?

I hate people who don't paint their armies, hate them with all my guts. Beats me how they value other things over painting, like eating or brushing teeth.

It's cool, but it looks a bit odd with two guys hanging off the bottom. If I were you I'd make a new machine just like that one, and have one guy sitting upright with his head poking up behind the repeater handguns like a ww1 fighter. Just an idea.
I agree with the inhumane treatment of animals.

I was thinking of doing the "Swallows of Capistrano" competitors to the birdmen.  :icon_biggrin: steveb
