Martian War Machine



by Simon Mercs







Scale: Not stated

The kit is a Lunar Models vacuum formed version, and required 75 hours to complete. This model features a custom-made pulsation module to operate the lighting system. Lighting consists of 3 CCFL's to illuminate the 3 extremities and 3 green "spot" LEDS to add additional effects to the 3 lower "suspensor" lights. A red LED is mounted in the "cobra" weapon to add a sinister reminder of this awesome adversary. The power system is 12 volts (1250 mA), by AC driven power pack.

The model stands 12" (305mm) tall and is 15" (381mm) wide. It's finished in a copper metallic with "forged Iron stipple" effects to make it look like an alien metal.
