Hi All,

I finished up my two Grav Vans, and i'm pretty happy with them! They'll work
great with my NI.

The bases are large washers with a clear pen casing cut up and then glued.
Since the Grav Vans are pretty heavy pieces of metal, I needed something
pretty substantial.

As always, comments and suggestions are always welcome!

Very nice indeed! The colour-scheme and insignia say "jackboot in your
face para-military police" to me, as if Judge Dredd and his team were
about to leap out barking "Prepare to be judged!"

I was dubious about the "clear pen casing" when I read it, but the stands
really fade into be background in the shadow under the vehicle.
I'll have to put that in my "idea tool-box".

Rob.

Much the same effect as using some thick clear acrylic rod - but the
pen casings are much cheaper, ie: free once the pen is empty!  ;-)

Yes, the effect is very good.
