Custom HISS Tank


FlyingFigg

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

 

I've wanted a DTC Hiss with RAH guns since I got my first DTC tank. Once I saw the art on the backdrops of the Target exclusives I figured " Well if I'm not going to be able to buy one, why not make one?"

I'm not sure which I like better missiles or no missiles. Any thoughts? If I keep the missiles, I'm going to paint them silver or black.

I actually like the missile pod things... I took the bottom ones off though, took a little wiggle work, but looked a lot better.. I plan on chopping off the missiles and cutting them down so they're just little nubs sticking out kinda like the old wolverine looked.

 

As for yours, I think it looks cool either way, just not with both, a little too much going on.

I'll be glad to check this out when I get home, darn work is blocking the pictures from coming through.

Awesome work man! Absolutely awesome! It's the small things that make a custom really come alive! I missed out on the Target HISS in my area (all I could find was the AWE Striker), so I haven't been able to get ahold of an old-school gun turret...but I definitely have plans to redo my DTC HISS in this same way. Just let us know how you did it...

That is a great idea!

Unfortunatley, I did not take any WIP pics, I am planing to do more but I need some more Target HISSes for parts, hopefully I can get them as I want to build 4 more.

 

now why cant hasbro do this for the one that is coming out.

 

I know! You and I were going on about this at the Joe con.

I did this back in 2005. http://forums.toynewsi.com/index.php?showt...;#entry15993595

Slightly different, but same basic concept. You would think Hasbro would get the idea by now, as ive seen alot of customs like this over the years.

 

I never would have thought to use the ASP for it. Good job!
