Winter Warrior

You may recall the Warrior of the Wastes, and it's journey to Haven. Well, after they got rested up, and repaired their machine, they headed back to the Mediterranea. Upon their arrival, the Warrior was outfitted with thermal armor, and the crew was promptly shipped out with an expeditionary force to scout for resources in mid-to-northern Europe.

 

As you can see, this is essentially an arctic version of the Warrior of the Wastes. To keep with the style established by the original, I used ATV bodies as the lower legs (the previous Wastes version uses dirtbike shells). I'm also fairly pleased with the color blocking, if I do say so myself.

 

Also, this variant has a considerable one-up over the wastes version in one critical area: It can stand on it's own, no extra supports or clips necessary.

 

Also, check out the gallery.

 

EDIT: I guess Tadashistate already brought it up, but here goes: Guys, don't even get me started about the feet not being "practical". If my goal was to build something "practical" it would have treads, not legs.
