Uploaded with ImageShack.us Green stuff, an old creditcard cut in pieces, the driver and other stuff from an abandoned slotcar, and a screw cap. Uploaded with ImageShack.us A screw cap and some coffee stirrers Uploaded with ImageShack.us And an oil barrel for the extra gasolin. Bishop, the biker without a bike, is looking forward to the end result.

Looking at the biker standing next to it I conclude you know how to paint.. Good use of a screwcap. post the result. Edited by Hollander, Sep 15 2010, 11:22 AM.

As for a paintjob let your imagination run riot (how would you like your car to look?!). Mad Max 2 has lots of cars with custom paintjobs.

But I have painted and washed it with both black and brown washes. I have used the GW-washes. They are excellent. Thin them 1:1. I still need to finish the Machinegun of No Mercy with some putty and painting. And I also need some dust, especially dirt and dust sprayed from the wheels up to the side of the car. Anyone knows how to do that? Maybe some grafitti. Sorry for the bad picture quality. Edited by Spaghettigringo, Jun 25 2011, 11:28 PM.
