Well, I guess it's about time I did that update!
Basically, we've seen a flurry of Warthog progress over the last week. That wooden thing you saw before? It's gone. Blown away in the wake of the arrival of a real mean, green fighting machine! Dan, who had to leave the job due to unforseen circumstances, was hard at work painting it with resin this past weekend in an effort to capitalise on a stream of progress from the previous week. When it went in that weekend, he had built it up to this:
There is still a ways to go on it, and lots of small details that need to be done. That, however, is simply the nature of the beast.
I'm guessing you don't want to keep reading my over-hyped commentary though, so here's pics. Hope you all enjoy.
I would like to take this moment to thank Dan for all his hard work to date on the project. He's been a legend, as I'm sure you will all agree.

Bigger tyres and a suspension lift - thoughts?
I am not sure. Both would make it look more like the Weta one, while moving it further away from the scaling of the in-game vehicle.

I love it! Just something about the shape of the body on the side, I can't figure it out, but It just doesn't look right, I have no idea why.

If he put on bigger tires then he wouldn't need to lift anything, other than that he needs a wrench system in the front, chaingun or gassgun in the back,lighting, and finishing work on the interier then I guess it's time to take on the Covenent unless he still needs an engine.

Engine's in there. Needs a new fuel tank though, apparently.

As I mentioned before, I maintain there's still a ways to go. Small details here and there would be nice and I feel a step to get in is an absolute must. Their work to date has been stirling.

wow, this is wonderful, peole keep comparing it to Weta, well considering weta had a budget from bungie and microsoft to make their props and they consist entirely of professional prop makers who do this stuff for a living, you've got them running even if you've been using wood. Nice guys
