I finally added the paint and cleaned up everything else needed. This thing is done. I figured it'd be better to just make a new topic instead of digging up the WIP one. All the pics will follow, but I'll give the details about what I did first.
We've all been saying this HISS would be a lot better with a full covered back and fold down ramp. I had to give it a shot. I started off thinking about having a small ladder flip out of the back and the full hatch rise instead of drop. After some deciding and pre-fitting, that turned out not to be a good idea. There's things like the foot peg on the back and the inner portion of the frame being oddly shaped that prevented that. The fold down was the better option anyway.
I cut the bumper and half wall. Fitted some plastic to the opening and dremeled the "triangle" details in. I had to build up the opening inside so that it wasn't just an open hole. I had to make a hinge so the door would flip down. The guns were made from Superhero Showdown launchers and some wood I turned on a lathe. The rockets got cut down and the inner parts were reshaped so the rockets would fit inside.
That's pretty much it. It was more figuring out than work. Once I got an idea everything pretty much went together. So now for the pictures:
