Dr. Cranky Posted May 18, 2012 Author Share Posted May 18, 2012 New to the Forum looking to get into this CBP have some ideas in my head after looking at these Zombie killers they are some great looking builds Carl Carl, Welcome to the Forum, and I hope you will join up and build one of these.

Dr. Cranky Posted May 18, 2012 Author Share Posted May 18, 2012 Rob, I would suggest you keep all these. Box them up and put them away. I learned long ago never to sell or give my builds away. I'm not being judgemental here it's just that you have a great collection I believe should stick together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZombieHunter26 Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 I suppose perhaps storage is an option... I have this feeling that I will have a model collection that resembles a museum by the time I am all done with building stuff decades from now! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brendan30 Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 I'd like to join this build if possible I have a few ideas and leftover bodies laying around. I just need tank tracks But don't want to purchase a full set for them, does anyone have pieces left over unused they are willing to part with?

twistedrods Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Well Doc,it took a couple of months but it is finally ready. The all purpose Shooter and Stabber.I had a blast building it,but the real fun came when I weathered her.I started with real red dirt from Northern California and then went to a water and pastel chalk technique that I have used for a while.It is very similar to your salting method.Please feel free to comment about her so I can improve my methods,and become an even Madder Styrene Addict MUAHAHAHA .I hope you enjoy the pics.By the way Doc this will be on the way within a month.

Butcher Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 It's been some time since I made a post. I work out of town nowa day's so I don't really have time for anything. I've been slowly building while in my motel room after work. This is another one I just completed. It's '40 Ford half track, borrowed from the Romell's Ride kit. Out-fitted with blades up front along with a spinning drum of spikes. A roof mounted gun with an escape hatch. So far, this half track is my favorite. Enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brendan30 Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 I am looking for tank tracks for this if anyone has any spares laying around not being used I'd love 'em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Cranky Posted May 19, 2012 Author Share Posted May 19, 2012 Brendan, that's looking interesting. Tracks, that's a great idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butcher Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 (edited) Here are a few more shot of the truck. I had to get them uploaded to my photobucket, so now I can post more. All the door's open, the gun swivels, stuffed another red rag in place of the missing gas cap. I added a skeleton arm hanging onto the driver side smoke stack, guess one of the zombies tried to get a free ride. Also hung a rib cage from the rear, try to deter any zombies coming from the rear.I tried to build this as a half track from WWII, that a group of survivors found during the zombie apocalypse Therese also a first aid kit, binoculars and a ammo case inside the cab.

Dr. Cranky Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 Ken, this last picture says it all about what a wonderful idea and build this is. I can't wait to see it with the tracks on. WOW. Wonderful imagination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZombieHunter26 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 So just to update, I ratted the willys. That build will be posted in under glass after work today. My warlord still need a color paint over the rust paint... Suggestions? Waste buggy needs paint PERIOD... It is still in primer. That happens when I cant make up my mind on a color scheme... Also, working on detail elements for my next diorama. I will eventually finish all my current projects... Before I start a new one... ...maybe.
