Welcome to the HeavyMetalPro Forums

Parts Used:
Reseen Crusader - Head, Hands, Upper Arms, Body, Legs
Reseen Ostroc - Jump Jets
Reseen Phoenix Hawk IIC - Lower Arms
Reseen Locust-5M - Head Gun
Sprue - Chestplate, Abdomen, LRMs, LRM Covers

Looks like a Crud to me. I would build up the shoulders a little more though. Have you looked at the Crud the Songoru did over at the CBT forums ? He drill ed the head in the front to get the round viewport look.

Was doombud, not sounguru, who did the one on CBT ... and I'm afraid I like the look of his better, even if he does keep the wrist missile pods.

Has there been anything to suggest whether IWM will be bringing out any variants of the Crusader? The 7L might work even better.

Hrm, I like his better, too! ALthough I think he'd do well to put the missile pods on the shoulders.

Hmmm, my ears were burning, so I had to search the whole internet to see who was invoking my name...and viola! here I am!

Yeah, I really wanted to use as much of the new cast crusader as possible...and those shoulders that it came with, with the round bulb and the thin collar on it...I was too lazy to try to completely get rid of the wrist launchers and rebuild the whole shoulder. On the 2nd crusader I did, i filed away half of the launcher holes, so "stat-wise" it matches the crd 3r. But not "fluff" wise, since it's specifically stated that the launchers are in the shoulders. I kinda like the bulky forearms (these may be a bit Too bulky, but what can ya do). It was a trade-off. A whole lot of work, vs, not so much work. and the not so much work won out!

I really like your missile launcher shoulders though, I don't think I have the abilities to pull off something like that (which is why I avoided it in the first place). Good job!

I think RT came up with a good rationale for Dark Phoenix having more than one design - a simpler, "classic" version within the reach of most people (for which yours is probably a good candidate, Doombud), and then more advanced types for different "classic" variants

I agree with Rommel the shoulders need something added to them.
