Scorpion ABS (armoured battle station)

[sioka]

The Scorpion ABS (armoured battle station) is a mobile ground unit with a frontal plasma cannon and a super heavy rail gun turret. Created to carry a squad of marines in to any situation and form a heavily defended position behind enemy lines but with the capabilities of a tank and apc rolled in to one.

Inspired by Crimso Giger and his contagious building and by his theme moth Febrovery.

In transport mode with the main armament stowed

The Scorpion can carry a squad of 6 and requires a 2 man crew consisting of a driver/engineer and a gunner/strategic operations manager

Thick ablative armour shrouds a hardened plastanium core minimising both the impact from beam weapons and high velocity missiles. Unlike most ground units the Scorpion creates an adaptive energy shroud as a first line of shielding this further reduces the chance of being susceptible to supersonic projectiles and sneak attacks.

Armed with a forward firing plasma cannon and its quad lance rail cannon the Scorpion is as well armed as it is guarded.

With its main armament of a quad lance rail cannon, capable of launching rounds at hypersonic speeds with pinpoint accuracy, this Scorpion certainly has a sting in its tail.

WOW, Very nice MOC!

Woah! I love the shaping of the armor, it creates some really fantastic lines along the sides. The weapons are well done, also

[dartmar]

Great looking vehicle.

[Fuzzytrexy]

Man, I was blown away when I saw this.

[Junior Shark]

Oh wow. Very Foss. The guns moving from the back to the top is ace!

[MaasEffekt]

Very cool! Is there an interior?

[Captain Braunsfeld]

Quite nice - I like those huge wheels!

[Leonardo da Bricki]

That is awesome! I love the color scheme and the shaping! Can we have a few more pics, like an overhead shot? Also, is there an interior?

You had better be careful. It's so smooth it almost doesn't look LEGO.

Terrific!

Overdimensioned "upgraded" LEGO version (copy) of Aliens' vehicle with color combi from Galaxy Squad - not bad at all (tho for my personal taste too big, actually).

Wow, looks fantastic!

[bonox]

I say we take off, nuke the entire site from orbit!

I really like the shape and features, but I think it's way too big. A smaller version would look a lot better with the minifigs, but as is it makes a great display piece.

[Space Police XVIII]

I really like this, including the size. It looks big enough to carry equipment, ammo, with living space for the four crew.. is there an interior?

[CrashHelmets]

This is fabulous! What's it like on the inside?

[soccerkid6]

Man! This thing is epic! Looks so powerful, capable, and just huge Tremendous shape, and the orange highlights are magnificent

Gotta be one of my favorite LEGO sci-fi ground vehicles

[LittleJohn]

Absolutely stunning work here! The colorscheme is wonderful, as is the shaping

The huge wheels and rotating guns look fantastic too

[polarstein]

Huh awesome! Second pic got me with the minifigs as reference scale showing the proportions of this monster. Is the rail cannon also able to slide between both positions?
