    These are great pictures. I pretty much just used the manga to make
mine. I did see a model on starship modeler but I don't think its very
acurate.

These 2 are the best pictures I have found of the Fuchikoma.

That being said, why did you make the "foot" of each legs have 3 • "hoofs"/toes?
Otherwise an excellent and accurate model! Man, I wish I made it... ;-)

    Do you mean why didn't I? Actually thats still a work in progress but
I'm so impatient I have to show a model. The initial reason to just go with
the slope was that it was easy to swap out with the wheels I made. I would
love to actually come up with the 3 toe design and have the wheels slide
down between them but that would probably be tricky at this scale.

BTW aren't the wheels attached by first removing the "hoofs"/toes and • mounting
the wheels?

See above : )

    Thanks again!

    Jon
