Hi everyone!

I just received an old, yet impeccable, Horizon Mad Cat 1/35 vinyl model kit. I'll build it soon and I'll like to heard (read, actually) which camospec would be nice for it. Any recommendations?

Also, I've been looking for some transformations like an visible cockpit but I haven't found anything on the web, even detailed information on it's cockpit instruments. Do you have any ideas or information for it?

I'll be posting pictures on it's building progress!

Regards!

Moved to fan art since there is no direct forum to house this klinda stuff.

Good luck with the model

Yeah... I saw that but it's doesn't seems accurate enough (at least, for me). Yet, the dissection he does is quite practical for mounting and modeling purposes. Thanks

I really hope MWO brings this kind of stuff back.

I'm a huge fan of modeling, I do the tanks and the little warhammer men all the time. I really want to do some battletech stuff, and I hate to say it, but Ironwind Metals sucks... :o

Anyway, my only suggestion, weather the hell out of it and make it look badass :)

I will... And I'll be posting my progress to take count on details and recomendations.

You can still find some old Ral Partha Mechs on ebay... you should get your favorites, specially if you have a lot of experience with WH models
