Homage to TFCon Downshift(pic heavy)

Having Not attended the class which made this i liked the idea and attempted to make my own.Finding a classics prowl for cheap before the masterpiece release was a pain let alone two of them.In my first attempt i lost the center roof piece so tried filling with clay that hardened with hot water.That said i needed a new roof.I also tried dying the missiles which was a complete fail.The connectors came out great but missiles themselves a no so i painted them.It's not as perfect as i would have liked it to be but for my second home attempt repaint from scratch i think it turned out alright.Please feel free to comment as all tips and tricks are welcome.
