Copied from my thread in the Armoured Cavalry Forums
This is a photo heavy thread (my apologies)
I have been working on this build for the past few months, it's a little different to other AT-AT driver builds you may have seen on this forum but I think it is worth while sharing.
Although most of the AT-AT Greebles are readily available, I have had to make most of them for this build myself .. many are not exactly right but I ask that before you make a judgement you finish looking at all the photos and you will understand why.
Armour from a supplier that has only recently added TIE/AT-AT armour to their range, and this is the first one built to AT-AT specifications
Because this essentially a TIE kit there weren't many of the Greebles that I could use so I had to make my own
These were made prior to finding the Sony Tape deck buttons so I built them the "Old Fashion" way
Canisters were made from PVC Pipe size adapters glued together
Assembly:
The Decals didn't come with the kit, so I had them printed on Vinyl
I can't show more without giving it away so ...
The final product ...
This is Archer my 4 (nearly 5) year old son .. who now can Troop as an AT-AT driver with Daddy
The Kit didn't come with Shoulder Bells so I made some out of some TB bells I had spare
And How happy was he about it being finished? This says it all
