Hi all... I'm somehow new here but... well I'm anouncing my last (and third) model, just baked and pretty hot!, the UHV 2000 Walrus, click any of the images and enjoy (I hope).

Primero de todo - Bienvenido ...

Second:- Don't know if they (Denny the boss and co) will be pleased with your link... it was exposed before...and your work is for free... but it's competence for them... They are a good gang... and don't know for sure the reaction...but maybe first send a post to Denny to ask permision (as Mel for example sell that kind of vehicles) - Wich is wonderfull _ how strange having to speak in english with an spanish colleague ?...

Traducido por si no me he expresado: No creo que se molesten... pero por si las moscas yo lo editaria y preguntaria si puedes poner eso sin problemas ! - Y bienvenido de nuevo...

It is a point of view... but I think I really don't hurt anyone's business it is not a comercial/other brand work... in fact you can call it kitbashing if you like
Anyway if any admin thinks that it is improper then... delete delete delete!!!

And if it really could affect Ebbles or Worldworks business... THAT SHOULD MEAN IT IS TIME TO OPEN MY OWN SHOP!!! (but sadly of fortunately I don't think so).

And the post is in one of the less important subforum... so... well... hu!

Don't doubt contact them... worldworks is growing and a pair of hands that know what to do maybe are usefull... I don't belive that one can stop working but if you do for free...why not begin payed ?? ...

And as you said is only an opinion...they are quite friendly here but only to advise "por si las moscas"...

Saludos

My girlfriend tells me the same thing... "If you do it... why not get paid for it" (i'm talking about paper models you sick readers!!! ), maybe she is right and maybe it's a good point but in fact I've never been called seriously to join any developement team... the only serious work I've made was some Vassal developements for Dan Verssen Games... and it was a unpaid work (yes, my girlfriend was NOT happy with that collaboration).

I'm sure people here are friendly, so am I so, if the post means problems to someone (I imagine that admins are reading this) then again... delete delete delete!!!

Either which way it blows out Topo it's great to have you here finally! Your work is very impressive as I might have mentioned at Ebbles.

Thank you for the Walrus - It's a treat to look at and will be fun to build.

Noting to say but

Koo-Koo-Kachoo!

Welcome to the forums Topo .

The original post that pointed out your work Topo, was not deleted, in fact I noticed you posted there already. Your work stirred up interest from the higher ups of both WW's and MelEbbles so I doubt we'll see this vanish, though I've bookmarked it for myself just in case . Heh, you may even find yourself a job if your not careful . Btw, nice floater, your dropship was pretty cool too .

Edit: Are those crates behind the Walrus cardstock, and if so were they designed by you or did you get them elsewhere, just curious

I built an open-topped 'Industrial' Walrus this weekend. It goes together very nicely, although it is a bit more fiddly in places than I am used to. It looks great sitting on the railtracks in my mayhem/MC-1 hybrid (its a bit big for the street tiles). A bit of Sci-Fi dressing makes a big difference.

I will be building a sealed military version with HMG in the near future.

I would very much like to see more from Topo! A collaberation with WWG would be excellent

I hate to be a joykill but I have to say Topo this is teatering on an uncomfortable threshold for me. Since you are now asking for donations at your site, you are effectively pulling in an income from your work. That's an issue for me in terms of allowing you to use the exposure potential of WorldWorks Games as a means to advertise your new products and it goes directly against previously stated forum policy. If I allow you to do this without intervention then there's no stopping others from doing the same thing. WorldWorks is not ENworld or an open market, it's a business that relies on the primary focus of its core fanbase. That's not to say I wouldn't support your venture but you don't see Mel advertising his new products here, nor mine over at Ebbles Miniatures (and he's a long time trusted friend). That's just business.

Don't get me wrong, you seem like a nice guy, you have talent and at any other time I might consider signing you on. Unfortunately things are so crazy busy right now that I just don't have enough hours in the day to bring another content creator into the fold. Perhaps when things slow down a bit and if you're still plugging away at these things, we can talk.

I hope you can understand where I'm coming from and I genuinely would like to get in touch when things calm down a bit here.

D-

Ok, no problem, I understand your point of view cristal clear... I've removed the "banner" from my signature and of course you can do whatever you want with this post... it is ok

And no... I'M NOT A NICE GUY!!!

Photos uploaded:

Yes, I glued on the reinforcement parts first - I'll know better next time. The way you suggest sounds like it would be much easier, thanks for the hint.

Steve

Great build!!!! It looks better than any of the two models (camo and industrial) I build...

Thank you very much for building and posting the photos.

Ah! I forgot to say that if someone is lazy enough to tweak the model in UCM I'll be glad to make any version you want, just ask


***EDIT***

Scothern, I've posted your images in the infinity forum, here: without your permission, I hope you allow me to do so

Glad you like the minis! But sorry, I'm a total hoarder, and not likely to part with anything I've painted

If you want to see more detail of my GOMC-1 minis (including 'Fast Eddy') , I have a few in the Mongoose gallery:


I have no problem with anyone using my Walrus pictures, feel free to do what you like with them (although it is nice to know where they have been posted, so I can comment on the comments )

Steve

Police variant built, and photos added to gallery :


Feel free to make use of them however you wish

Cheers Topo!

Steve

That looks great. Nice texture from TOPO and nice build from Scothern. It does a surprisingly good job of looking like a H-Wagon and bringing the terrain up to a bit sci-fi-ish. I might have to attempt one of these myself

On a seperate note, I love how you did your fences. What did you use as bases?
