Articulated AT-99 Scorpion

First model of 2025, yay.

Anyways, here's the scorpion, my all-time favorite vehicle in science fiction. It's the same scale as the SA-2 Samson I made a while back, but I've refined the design to make it more durable, and easier to assemble. It comes in a lot of parts, but that's necessary in order to preserve the detail and structural integrity. I've oriented everything for easier printing, so that's that. Yes, I did test print it several times to make sure it worked, I added the pictures of my model.

Hey, I also designed an SA-2 Samson. If you're reading this, then chances are you might like it.

Edit 1/23/25: Fixed an error in the cockpit canopy's appearance. The screenshots still have the incorrect frame, but this has been fixed in the model.

Assembly should be straightforward, but in case you need instructions, the process is as follows.
The 2 halves of the tail should be assembled, and then the actual tail should be attached on. Then, you need to attach the tail assembly to the midsection of the fuselage. DO NOT GLUE THE NOSE YET.

Assemble the rotors as you did for the SA-2 Samson. In case you didn't do that, then I'll copy-paste the instructions from there-

Assembling each rotor is quite simple, first you grab all the parts you need-

1 Propeller hub
2 Propellers
1 Propeller Axle
1 Rotor

Step 1. Place down the propeller axle, with the pin facing up.
Step 2. Slide a propeller onto the pin. letting it rest on top of the axle as a stopper. Do not glue it.
Step 3. Slide this assembly through the center hole of the Rotor casing, and do not glue it.
Step 4. Place another propeller onto the exposed pin, do not glue.
Step 5. Glue the propeller hub on top of the pin, finishing the assembly.

Do these steps again for the second rotor. After assembly, the cross section of the model should be- (in ascending order)
Hub
Propeller
Rotor
Propeller
Axle
(The pin should run through the center of all of them.)

-Anyways, so yeah. Then, you take the rotors and place them loosely on the slots in the tail. Then, glue the fuselage pin into place in the center. Then, finally, you can glue on the nose of the aircraft. Make sure to hold it real tight with a clamp, or rubber bands.

Once that's dry, you can attach all of the weapons. The machine guns go on the bottom of the nose, the rockets under the wings, and the missiles on the wing tips. The last step is to attach the landing skids onto the bottom.

That's it. Yay.

If you have questions... leave a comment I guess? Yeah. Have a nice day.
