    Testing out some potential designs for parts to convert my OS Rook into Jallguar for my MP Liokaiser project. It's a work in progress obviously. Current plan is to add Jallguar style cockpit, forearms, head, and missile rack, with a final repaint.

    Update 1/16: Revised cockpit and hinge

    Adjusted the size of the cockpit and front end to be slightly bigger, and added weapons. I'm thinking of Jallguar as being a sort of quick strike assault vehicle thing, which seems like it'd be a sensible complement to the jets and heavy armor on the team. I dunno. =p

    I might make it available, but it'd depend on the price it could be made for through either Shapeways or if I sold it direct. I will definitely end up scaling it down to normal CW scale though, since I also used CW Rook in place of Jallguar on my custom CW Liokaiser project.

    Early prototype of the Jallguar head before it goes into Meshmixer and gets smoothed out. Have to rework the hinge on the back to get the backpack folding properly.

    Revised the hinge design for the cockpit to give him a clean backpack. Dude is ready for some repaint action.
