Right - you may have seen this one else where on here:

Ideal for you to cruise the wastelands, be you a nomad or a road warrior wannbe!

You sir - you look like you need a transporter. Well let me show this beast. Rugged and capable of anything the wastelands throws at it.

You can transport goods or goons sir - your call. The Harpoon gun up top gives makes raiders think twice if you know what I mean sir!

Wow! Looking good Mr D! I especially like the harpoon truck - afterall, the back is armoured transport!

Are you working on this stuff like a man possessed or have you been keeping this stuff secret!

I'm envious of your cars man. One question, did I steal the idea of the harpoon gun from you or did you borrow the idea from me?

I pinched it off you old chap. Its a Autocannon off a IG Chimmera. I drilled and pinned a tip of a zombie spear to it.

The rusty mess is from the tutorial on your site Curtis. It works well. Try it kids. The Big chunky grills are made from Granny grating/ plastic embrodary mess. The finer stuff is made from auto repair mess.

I am not sure what car the other is Bungle - it was a cars sweets dispenser. It looks like one. It was my intention to build a cruiser for you wastelands dweller ala Fallout 2. Something that will fall apart at the wrong time! :D

You have to know only the best demonic entities :D

More vehicles from the world that is related to a certain colour....

For Curtis..

These two are Ramshackle Nuke Ren vehicles - a buggy and trike. These are nice and light for resin models. Whats your secret Curtis? :D

Mattblackworld has many autogangs and road warriors. I have the pleasure of introducing Insanity Bob (why do all road heros have names that suggest mental illness?) and his side kick Tess.

Posted Image
Insanity Bob is a EM4 future Wars Road Hero and Tess is a EM4 rioter limited edition thingy. She joined bob as her helmet reminded me of those worn by the gangers in Mad Max 2. :D This car has been lurking in my collection for about 3 years now. The Car is a die cast 1/43 Burago Chevrolet Corvette kit. The windows are meshed up and the bumpers are bits of sprue.
Posted Image
The guns are Space MArine Bolters, the spikes are cocktail sitcks and the hosey bit came from a kit. The Skull came from a GW WHFB skeleton. It and the words Death are a salute to a Carl Critchlow illustration in one of the Dark Future books.

Posted Image

To the far west of the Wastelands the Brittannia Bunker City is plauged by the Delta Road gangs. Here is one such buggy.
Posted Image
The car is a cheap 1/43 merc racer with a Combat Zone plastic ganger in the cockpit.

And now folks....The ULTIMATE wasteland cruiser.
Posted Image
This started life as a 1/43 Revell Puma Tank kit - 23 years ago (yee gods am I that old?). A house move saw it get damaged so it became a Space Ork (SpOrk?) Battle Wagon (back in the days before GW kits). It got a shortened weapon (ooh err) and a engine from a 1/24 ME109. It looked the biz until I rediscovered it and found a couple of wheels missing. But now I wuz all grewed up and it was recycled as a PA combat vehicle.

The chassis was drilled and some wheels from a couple of cheap monster trucks were added. Various other bits arrived as did a new engine housing. For some reason I thought it was groovey to have a grey blue chamo paint job. :D

Posted Image

This is one hell of a beast and I have not yet decided what faction should inherit the monster. Possibly Trader Tommy to protect his shipments?

I like the armoured transport, looks good in the colour scheme. I think its amusing that it really has been reappropriated in its use 3 times already!

Great to see what youve done with the Ramshackle stuff of course...

Right chaps - for you all. Those close ups of the 27th Deserters co new ride. Chopped in the bunker to suit all manner of wasteland needs.

The kit is 1/48 LAV (I cant remember who by) I picked up when I read about one in Deathlands (also looted from a bunker). As the kit landed on my door mat I saw Pappamidnight's (over on Displaced minatures) vehicle for Star Mogul - using a similar model kit.

My kit was a steal on evil bay and was a motorised version. I had to chop the chassis and battery box out to make the interor body work. The roof was cut out and the turret & ring removed. A new tail gate was added and the interior detailed with chequer plate plastic card and granny mesh. The weapon coupla is a M16 back nut from a electrical assembly and the weapon is from a old GW Titan (I won a box of extra titans back in the day!). Side cargo racks where added. I may add some cargo to then when I get bored...
