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

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 Smile

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 Smile
