HISS II, Swampmasher, Parasite, Armadillo


I found my old HISS II in a field behind my Mom's house recently, and even though it was discolored beyond repair, I knew I could do something with it. I really thought that this thing was lost forever, and I was really glad that I found it.

I painted it to kinda match the 2005 DTC HISS Tank. I plan on giving it a new covered turret, as well as a new weapon for the top. I've never really been a fan of the guns on the top of this HISS, and I'm replacing them with the 1989 Armadillo's missile launchers, as well as making an alternate weapons system with some spare Swampmasher guns that I have. I switched out the guns on the sides of the cockpit with a couple of the top guns from the Parasite.

For the alternate Weapons Systems, I added a ladder from the turret to the interior of the tank, and a hatch from the Warthog to finally give the HISS II some cover for the turret, and just for looks I slapped on a flip-down computer to be manned by the turret gunner. The floor of the interior was not meant for troop transport, so I added some flooring to hold up some figures; it's a tight fit, but it works. Also, I added two of Mainframe's computers to the ceiling of the interior and I sculpted some bases for Firefly's walkies to be held as emergeny phones.
At some point in the upcoming week, I plan on taking some outdoor pics with the HISS II loaded with some of Cobra's top brass and a Crimson Guard escourt
