This build started as me trying out a brick wall technique (the building in the left), and it just sorta grew from there. I wanted to make it a combination of ancient architecture, and a futuristic city, that is now in ruins because of conflict. Lemme know what you think in the comments, thanks!
Was browsing the world wide web and came across this amazing artist on devinart. He or She mixes clone and storm troopers with modern day equipment and it looks absolutely amazing. so I decided to give it a go in Lego with electric tape.
here are all of my vehicles at the end of 2016. From left to right top to bottom: V-22 Osprey, F-16 Fighting Falcon, E-14Y Yokosuka, Mk VC Super-marine Spitfire, two LVT-4 Waterbuffalos, M4a3e8 Sherman, Stug III ausf G, HMMVW, Sd.Kfz. 10, Type 95 Ha-go, Kübelwagon, Willys 4x4 Jeep, Pak 30 anti tank gun
Thats 14 vehicles/artillery and plenty more to come!! I hope everyone had a merry Christmas and a happy New Year! look forward to some interesting new builds coming soon! Also a huge shout out to all you guys who make this community great (sorry if I missed anyone in the tags). Happy building!

The completed model. The M5 Gremlin MULE is used by the LS Army as an escort for infantry and convoys, as well as an automated resupply cargo carrier in high-risk environments
The design is a mashup of the real-life XM1219 ARV-Assault-Light and the cancelled XM1217 Transport. As such, it can carry up to one tonne of cargo in the lower compartment.
The turret is equipped with one M2 Browning .50 cal. HMG, four TOW Anti-Tank rockets and a pair of quadruple smoke grenade launchers.
Sensor packages include three video cameras with FLIR/Night Vision capability (two for driving and one for turret weapons targeting), two laser scanner arrays for obstacle avoidance (beneath front cameras) and a ground radar package atop the turret camera.
Six articulated wheel arms powered by 3-phase electric motors allow the MULE to traverse over shallow steps, ditches, rubble mounds and other off-road environments.

RU forces have taken Vienna and are progressing to Sankt Pölten. The defensive command posts and line have been moved up by 50 miles. Another 1.5 million UAF forces have entered Europe. Including 1million more RU forces heading to Austria. RU special forces unit Acro has taken Liezen. And is now holding the town for the main military unit. Bombers have destroyed most of the NHE artillery defensive line, making the way for more supplies and vehicles.
2 Million RU soldier have moved in to the defense of Saudi Arabia.

"aw ma gewrd Tom u made anudr faxon."
Why yes my bad grammared friend I did make yet another faction.
"how mny dus dis mak"
This makes 5 RU faction
"wow!"
RU are evacuating Wounded soldiers and wounded citizens to Slovakia for health treatment. Non heart citizens are also be evacuated from Austrian town under fire. Another half a million RU soldiers have arrived in Vienna to back up the defensive line. NHE forces are holding 1 to 2 miles away from the RU defensive line and have sent 2 attacks which retreated after only a few hours of fighting. It is unclear what they have planned but RU is taking no chances. UAF engineers have begun building AA emplacements. New artillery arrived on trains also. RU has sent 1 million soldiers from the defense of Saudi Arabia to the defence of Egypt. They will be under the command of the same Mongolian generals that fended off the invasion of Saudi Arabia. 1 Million more RU citizens have been drafted to military service. Making the total inactive soldiers around 6 million.

Tom i dint now u stil had dat faxin.
Why yes I do my, still very bad grammar friend.
So many studs. :/
Also I won't be able to post until either Monday or Tuesday.
It's been a long time of collecting them all, and it's crazy to me that I have this many (granted that 60 or so of them are all of my civil war figs, but still) but here they all are in all of their glory! I didn't give them all accessories because that would've taken ages.
3.5 million RU soldiers with air support and artilery support made a very large counter attack in austria and have taken most of the countryside. the siege of Sierning as begun with RU forces seizing most of the city. 1000 planes have begun bombing the lines of the NHE defensive line. NHE have begun there counter attack but RU forces are holding as the defensive line as been reinforced RU has drafted another 3.5 million soldiers from Iran, Oman, and Yemen. RU forces have entered Egypt and have been sent to reinforce Kievan lines.

I made some significant progress on the kc-10 (i dont know if i told you guys what it is, but its a kc-10 extender). I'm going to have to make a few orders to finish it though because I have no where near enough slopes. Anyway, let me know what you guys think.
Following on from this, I've added the top camo area. I love cheese slopes :)
Three things remain to be resolved.
1) I'm trying to figure out how to do the HMG/Four TOW missile turret, similar to the the XM1219. Dave Luna's prototype looks like a good starting point, although I think the smoke grenade launchers were a bit much. I dig the little sensor ball, though.
2) I'd like to do something at the front, possible a forward sensor pod. I'm tempted to hang an inverted helmet from Chandler's rendition of the FRC Grunt, and use a trans-clear round tile instead of trans-red. However, this might result in a series of jokes regarding FRC heads - is this idea too hokey?
3) Most importantly, the wheel arms. Chandler and Mike have some uncertainly regarding the ability of my present design (above) to support the combined mass of the vehicle and any internal cargo. I've included an exploded version of the current wheel arm design for your reference, boys.
It's very important that the wheel arms are posable as I imagine the MULE climbing up shallow outdoor steps in support of friendly infantry.
Comments and ideas welcome as usual.

Lego-compatible version of the Remington Modular Sniper Rifle
No plans to produce this. Not unless a stack of 1000 dollars drop from the sky.
~Enjoy
Reasonably major update.
Chassis has been completely rebuilt from scratch - dismounts now sit on the floor with backpacks removed. Overall build has lowered significantly.
Added return rollers as per Nathan's request.
Devised a new seat design based on legovaughan's as reference, sloped back enough for ground combat vehicle crews wearing helmets and full body armor to fit into the cramped interior.
Although max capacity is six, Platoon Leaders will typically put four plus backpacks and other gear in each of their two IFVs.
Decked out main and gunner consoles. Still need to design some tile stickers/decals, but where possible I've simply reused the common set found in most LS Army ground vehicles.
Squad Leaders, please sit tight - you will be building Jackal APCs instead.

Well, here is my first attempt at a modern combat fig. Please tell me what you think. C &C are welcome.
I've retained the original wheel arm design as per Tim's thoughts. There isn't enough room to fit a lightsabre blade inside the arm, but as Jacob has demonstrated, they should be strong enough as-is.
I just now need to finish off the turret and think about how to dress up the front.

Roughly a month on, yet another update - the Coyote is inching along...
I have finally figured out the secret to the Brickmania-style tracked suspension: odd axle lengths. As such, I have been able to determine the precise positioning of the roadwheels without any awkward connections.
The build footprint has also become narrower, from 16 to 12 studs, less walking around the back for the figs :)
I was forced to ditch my original idea of interchangeable passenger trays, but this means I can shave off one plate of height. I've already begun building up the rest of the chassis, with those custom vest/backpack combos sitting just over a whole bunch of 2 x 3 plates, under which are the Technic chain links used for the tracks.
Ignore those floating brackets - I'm still figuring out how to do side skirts.

Here is a group shot of the rebels. Finally I can make some scenes that have action and fighting. As war goes on they will become more advanced but for now they are like this riding in pickup trucks.

I don't know if I'll get this done in time for Brian "CherokeeKly" Carter's Alpha Compant BrickFair Task Force, however, I decided that I needed to start anyway.
I'm splurging on Matt Hacker's road wheel suspension arm, and have added front and rear drive wheels. Actual positioning is still up in the air at the moment, but it appears that any fewer road wheel sets, and the Coyote will become too chibi for my tastes.
Here I'm testing the fit for both the IFV and ICV passenger bay variants. Seems to be okay.

Following on from this, I've added the hood and the wheels.
The standard version will not come with the doors seen here, but instructions for them are provided as part of an optional "Up-armor" kit.
I've also thrown in a couple of placeholder ACF minifigs to check seating, as well as the clearance of the (again optional) Police Light bars. They *just* clear the helmets on the minifigs.

Between university lectures, I've managed to squeeze in some time to get most of the Panther model digitised in LDraw.
Note that the three decals for the dash instrumentation have already been incorporated successfully into the model without any hassle.
