The Crimzon Panther

Hey,

A bit out of my zone here, as I barely make Moc's anymore, but for me to make a car, Well, that's unheard of! Seriously, I've never made a car before, EVER, So I present to you this, 1 1/2 hours work.


The Sand Fox,

.... "Far outside the city limits, lies the Wasteland. To make deep runs into the desert, to retrieve artifacts, or fend off attacking Mercenaries, We built series of vehicles. Made to withstand sweltering heat, scouring sand, and vicious terrain, these vehicles are the only thing that stands between the humble wasteland city, and certain death....."

Sand Fox

With twin hood mounted Chain guns, strong armor and a wide wheelbase, the Sand Fox is a capable and agile vehicle. Some specifications include:

Twin Carbon chain guns~ The more firepower the better!
Heavy duty search light~ For navigation in the dark
Kevlar enforced tires~ Withstand bullets
Twin filter intakes~ Filter sand from the fresh air duct
All wheel drive~ More grip and more traction
Nitrous injected rocket fuel mixture~ More speed

*edit*

I was at a mates house today, So I though I'd take some more pictures! I also Got some loot when I was there!

How the HELL did it get up there!?














*EDIT*

So, I have come up with a plan, I plan to make a few more of these, then host a compitition.

Anywho:

The Crimzon Panther

The brother of the Sand Fox, this vehicle was designed to be used as either a mission vehicle, or as an assault vehicle, With room for a second person, and able to be retrofitted with a swiveling chain gun on top, this vehicle proved to be an asset to the wastelanders! Some feature include:

Tow cable
One BIG chain gun
Ariel for communications
Armoured rims
Twin rocket boosters
Durable nose plating (bullbars able to be retrofitted too)

"...We will fight back..."



More photos when I upgrade my Flickr. (tomorrow-next day)

Resize the pics, they are too big again.

Sorry.. Doing that now, Anything to say about the actual MOC?

Edit, Is that any better, it's on photobucket so I'm not sure how to make them smaller on here, If you get that?

No you have to resize them and upload again or use Flickr. And it' s hard to judge when you only see half of the vehicle.

Oh, How's that, give me a sec to resize them.

Edit* Sorry, I'm to retarded, I don't know how!

These pics are too small... Just make smaller pics when you take the pic or just resize them in Paint or Picture manager. But easiest way is to upload to flickr and get medium.

Sorry DP, I've used all my flickr limit, and I should be in bed, I can't take new pictures now.

Hey, these pics are good!

DarthPineapple wrote:Hey, these pics are good!

Thanks! I made a new flickr account!

So, What do you think of the MOC?

Edit~

It's a good build... but it really doesn't look like a SAND Fox. There's nothing on her that would make me believe she was a desert-based vehicle. It's color scheme isn't suited for that, it's got little that would protect the driver from the heat and sand (although, that's what I'm assuming his helmet is for), and I'd think such a versatile vehicle - fighting raiders and hunting down valuable materials, would have more equipment and cargo space inconspicuously tucked into it's slim frame.


It's a start and a good one !

Hmm, Good, Constructive!

You have made some good points, Which I will improve apon. I personaly like the colours, But I could try for something a little different?
As for storage, See the hinge?

Nothing special, but for some reason it doesn't really appeal to me. Though this thing would be awesome to ride.

darn straight it would!

Anything inparticular I could improve on?

I guess the body just doesn't look "bulk" enough, maybe make it bigger to make it looks more powerful.

Nice. Was this inspired by the vehicles in Jak 3, or to be more exact, the Sand Shark?

EDIT: Yeah, definitely Jak 3 inspired. The Wasteland part gave it away. As well as the "retrieving artifacts" and "fending off Mercenaries (Marauders, right?)"

It's not designed to Look powerful but it is, i'll try bulking it up.

GTFO my thread before people realise!

Not exactly the sand shark, but very heavily that and the Desert Screamer, I was playing Jak 3 alot while I was sick.

Since, he asked for it, this is what 11 based this vehicle off:



Called the SAND SHARK.

I'm comming to your house...

But thanks for teh reference pic, Go any gripes about the MOC?

Love the shape, and colour is great, but maybe change the name too 'Jungle Fox' to make the colour accurate? Also, can a Minifig sit in it?

Thanks! I chose the colour so it could be seen in the desert, And a minifigure can now sit in it!

Update! Took some new pictures today! Also shows V2 of the entire car, in it's natural habitat!

The new pics with it outside in the dirt look sick.
