Interstellar TARS

#1 Post by Ant »

Started working on a scratch build of TARS with working screens a while ago - thought it was time to upload some details!

So far the electronics are done, now I need to get on with the body!

Haven´t seen the film either (my next big SF movie will be THE MARTIAN), but I can see what you are aiming for. I think this will look really good when finished and cannot wait to see you working a bit more on it. Adding "electro extravaganza" to such model projects is a step beyond "only" putting lights in it!

Okay that is just amazingly cool. 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

And the youth, mistook by me,
Pleading for a lover's fee.
Shall we their fond pageant see?
