Awesome idea! Looks like it would be sick as an arctic exploration vehicle. I still love the way this is going though.

[Jeff B]

The hilarious title drew me in, and that build is awesome!

[Jantrix]

Man, that looks fantastic. What a great idea.

Awesome build! I really like youre take on the Deora! I'll keep an eye on this one!

[crazyjim]

Sure is different.

[Maindrian Pace]

I would have never pictured the Deora like that, but it really works. Great expedition vehicle.

I've always been a Deora fan and have collected a lot of photos of the original, and other paper / digital property. I love your take on the vehicle! I wouldn't be doing it all black, since it won't photo well at all. I like all the black trim you have on it, but I can see this as bright orange or lime, some color that someone taking that puppy to the North Pole would paint it so rescue planes would see it!

With the theme you are doing, and you can't decide on the black or maybe white, how about black/white camo?? Just a thought.

[Danno]

That's NEAT!!! Great idea.

Reminds me of a Kiravan. Check out their site...it might yield a few ideas for you... http://kiravan.net/gallery/

Awesome idea for this odd kit.

[SlotDaddy1963]

Awesome!

Now it just needs Sigourney Weaver and some Colonial Marines climbing outa the back!

[MikeBoyle]

Awesome.

i think black would show up pretty good against the snow Tom! but i know what you mean, black can be boring & hard to photo.

Old story... Augie Hiscano built a model for the old Revell contest series. It was black. The head judge told him that he didn't win because black wouldn't photograph well for all the magazine coverage they were planning, and to try again next year. The following year Augie built a very similar red hot rod and won first place! I remember that he won a brand new 1:1 Comet ! (anyone with better facts please chime in!)

[Modelbuilder Mark]

Very unique, I like it.

[blubaja]

This is a great idea! Can't wait to see it finished!

[martinfan5]
