Howlin mad ideas
By: wolfman_six Date: December 5, 2014, 9:02 pm

Some wild ideas of late...
Landmaster II, a larger brother of the Damnation Alley vehicle,
in desert digital camo.
Inter Global flyers, hover police cars and armored scout
vehicles.
And the redux of Cadillac Gage Commando Scout.

Thank you - more are on the way with weapons fits and diff. camo
patterns.
TALOS Prototype scramjet powered UCAV
TALOS = Trans-Atmospheric Low Observability Surveillance
This high speed, high altitude reconnaissance drone is launched
from orbit to rapidly scout and map planets being reconnoitered
from orbit. Designed with folding "cranked" wings that are heat
shielded for re-entry and self-deploy for flight, and a scramjet
engine, the TALOS is equipped with state of the art geomapping
and digital imagery capabilities. It can be piloted remotely or
operated using a pre-programmed flight pattern.

I made a search and this file came up, by LBraden.
The other one shows different versions.
Are you going to do the real ones, in the different versions,
with real collours? If you don't, and if you don't mind I think
I could go for it, making the historical ones for upload in JG,
using yours as a blank.

I'll give it a shot. Basically, the color pattern for the era of
the Scout would be Army Green or Olive Drab overall, or if they
were deployed to the field, plain desert tan and MERDC camo to
go with the EUCOM equipment.
I do have an uncolored template. I always start there before
putting on camo. Perhaps I'll post the armed versions and their
black and whites.
I play a number of old school tabletop RPG, such as The Morrow
Project, Twilight 2000 and their like, so I prefer color
patterns that I can assign to mercenaries, irregulars and the
occasional band of psychopaths that my player characters run
into.

Also, I prefer the Scout with a side door as well as the driver
top hatch, turret top hatch if applicable, and the rear door.
Seems like a more practical variation. The real one would have
the side door deleted.

According to wikipedia there are/were only 2 operators:
Egypt and Indonesia

And I noticed hat you added the side dor.
"I play a number of old school tabletop RPG, such as The Morrow

Didn't know them. I just took a look to "The Morrow Project" and
"Twilight 2000", they seem to have interesting premises.

Egyptian Scouts have either monotone tan or two tone tan and
brown splotch camo. Indonesia would be army green, olive drab or
the MERDC tritone green/brown/green and black "jungle variant"
pattern. Looks like based on the available pics, most of the
units sold in real life were 20mm or twin gun 1meter turret
machines. No recoilless TOW or command.
I keep my stuff simple as possible, even though I do print them
in color for my war games. Beats buying building and painting
kits, especially stuff they don't make kits for.
