Yet I'm referring to the Ad Mech Explorator and retinue released back in the late 80's through to the much more recent Space Marine servitors and tech-marines. Eg, the Thunderfire cannon... So schmexy

The cars I've got set aside are Austin Martins and the like, a few people movers, the more 'upmarket' cars that I reckon will work well for midrange cars in the SR future. Though I'm thinking hard about using some of the vans in a PA convoy...

I've got another group of the Aussies coming tomorrow, so once I split them I'll be working them as well, but they take stuff all time to clean and tear up.

Then, add a giant harpoon gun right there. And boom. You got a wicked awesome minvan. And have a soccer mom drive it. with a gun to her head

I actually just bought a Cararama Mini Morris that I'm ~~destroying~~ converting for my dudes! Did you strip your vehicles?

Wasteland Legend Posts: 3,648 Group: Admins Member #2 Joined: Jul 24, 2008	Ooooh sweet! Looking forward to yours then for sure!! I don't bother stripping, or priming, the only work I do to them (apart from armour plates and accessories) is a good rubdown with a scourer pad, then a good wash of patented rust effect and mud/dirt/dust around the bottom.

Tribal Savage Posts: 277 Group: Members Member #76 Joined: Mar 19, 2009	That's fair enough. I've got some plastic trucks I got from a couple of plastic Army Man bags (for $2!) that are going to get some converting done on them soon. But I'm pretty happy with painting/weathering right over the existing paint jobs also. It was a new experience for me but it came out pretty well. I only tried 'cos I saw you lot doing such cool things with 'em!

I haven't been going to $2 Shops much lately as I bought possibly all the plastic Aquarium plants I will need for the rest of my life. Still, I'll show you lot what I end up doing with the truck and if you want one I'll get it for ya
