This is the last of my Rider Units for now, a very loose adaptation of Frost. I went with a track design on this one as I feel it suits the snowy terrain

Heresy aside given how you built the frontfork, I love this design! The road wheels not only make sense for icy tracks, its suspension function is beautifully integrated.

Thanks!

It’s only a little heresy on the front :laughing:
I could have used balljoints instead - as far as I can see it would have lined up, but I’m out of white balljoints at the moment, and I didn’t want to have that shape there.

I’m really glad my choices with the wheels and tracks gave the impression I was aiming for :slight_smile:

Very cool RoboRider revamp! I really like the rugged, mechanical look of its chassis and the details like the guns and rear tread are great as well. Nice job!

I don’t see anything illegal there. At most, it might be flimsy since the wheels are essentially only supported on one side, but even that shouldn’t really be an issue, and there’s nothing wrong with a tile sitting inside a socket.

It should, and that would have been a neat creative technique.
