For your service to the Empire!
FreebieEaway | Antares

Its been a while since we have had a nice mechanical reproduction and this is just as fine a candidate as ever 
The detail is great (the shaping of the body of the AT-AT very well done) and you definitely cannot mistake it for anything else. Kudos on a great creation! Hopefully he'll reply with the server name so you can check it out in person!

After seeing the great X-Wing and pod racer, I thought an attempt should be made at one of the coolest vehicles, the AT-AT. Though a full sized walker wouldn't fit in a PA Hall, I thought the next best thing would to be call it a "prototype" to help explain its smaller size.
Remember if you wish to submit your image for the home show you must do 3 things.
1. Take an ScreenShot of the Image
2. Host it somewhere on the web (such as image dump or your isp space)
3. Send me a PM with Galactic Home Show or similar topic with a link to the image & a description.
4. Please send only full sized screenshot(s) it is better if they are not edited and made into a collage (this is something I do to the homeshow's myself)

the host site hasnt been owrking for a while now.. but its ok.. i know i wasnt the only one trying to make it.. just a freak coincidence that it looks nearly identical.. but seeing as how we are limited in what we could use to make it.. its more then likely that we would have conceptually derived the same blueprint...

yeah, definitely we're limited as to what we can use, at the time anyway.. i don't know if it's possible to beat the ship parts one from the previous message tho, that kicks serious butt.
just to let you know what i used..
feet- cheap cafe tables, bantha(?) desklamps, 5 containers
legs- 12 armor segment things each, 2 armor repair tools at the knees, 2 at the top of the leg
4 wall modules on top of that
lower body- cheap orange sofa, mineral resource container, 2 metal chairs at front, 2 at rear
8 faction armoirs, cheap armoirs, maybe a couple of cheap chests
4 psg's for a neck
head- cheap chairs, cheap chests, wooden chests for the windshield area, ottoman just behind that
guns are cdef rifles and barrels

Pretty cool. But I seem to remember there being another AT-AT in the Home Show quite awhile ago. It looks like the exact same one too, but maybe not...

Grats Freebie =)
I'm the one who made the ATAT Kurrin linked to... here'sa thread where I posted more pics: Clicky!
I did see this work of yours many months ago and it is part of what inspired me to try my own, but I wasn't happy with it until the shipwright components came out.I also submittedmine to Garva after I finally finished it but It looks like you are the one whogot noticed so hat's off to you. Oh and I already have a title so I'm happy for you to recieve yours. It's certainly deserved considering the materials available at the time.
