soccerkid6 Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 (edited) Location: B06, Sorn Tags: Water Vehicle, Vehicle, Job: Driver Start Log: Stationed on Sorn to patrol the waters, I got to use a MANTIS ski-boat which is quite a fun ride! Plenty of speed and maneuverability, plus some serious firepower. I was messing around with the black ski parts and liked how they looked in a diamond shape, so decided to use them as skis for the boat. The windshield opens to allow access to the cab, and the propeller spins. The water design is made using only 2×2 round plates. Comments and suggestions welcome Edited May 7, 2016 by soccerkid6 Quote
Mr Greeble Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 That water technique is playing tricks with my eyes... Quote
soccerkid6 Posted May 7, 2016 Author Posted May 7, 2016 Cool boat. I like how you built the pontoons. Thanks StarHawk, I was quite pleased how this turned, especially as I haven't done very many boats Very nice boat! Love the angels. Thank you! That water technique is playing tricks with my eyes... Yeah, it does that in real life too Quote
SpacerSteve Posted May 8, 2016 Posted May 8, 2016 I agree that the pontoons are excellent! The boat has a very MANTIS feel to it. Quote

LittleJohn Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 (edited) Excellent boat! I really like the angled supports to the pontoons, and the cockpit is very nice as well Edited May 10, 2016 by LittleJohn Quote

David FNJ Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Super cool design, and yeah, the water does do something to your eyes. Great use of those ski blade pieces! Quote

rodiziorobs Posted May 12, 2016 Posted May 12, 2016 Great boat, and I love the water technique. Now I am just wishing I had stocked up on more blue 2x2 round plates from the PAB when I had the chance Quote
