Love the display, and the model deserves all the recognition at the show tables. Congrats.

You can make a template out of tape, stick it to a sheet of styrene and make yourself one, or make it out of real wood for that matter. It's fun.

Love this paint job, Wayne:

That IS a wonderful idea. I remember the very first model building tip I learned was the sprue-over-the-candle-flame-stretch and I still use it to this day.

Excellent vid, Andy. Yes, that's the trick. House of color has a chrome product that works in a similar way and the trick is also to just spray lightly so that the base shines through and gives the part that chrome look.

Love the fact that it comes with all he extra goodies!

Nice phantom creation! I like it!

Yes, they are still around!

I look at those long side panels and I think PAINT!

Oh YES, the eye candy keeps rolling in! Keep it coming, this already has the makings of the most heavily armed CARAVAN! Derrick, PM me your address and I will get you some stuff pronto! The last thing I want (and I am sure you feel the same way) is to have delays in this Zombie-building process. Cheers, DC

Very nice work, those big boys are amazing.

Austin, I've built a few like that . . . you can do it, sure, or detail the inside as much as you want.

Great to have you aboard, Darren! Derrick, I keep salivatin' over those Zombie figures . . . man, they are just so right! Are you going to try to convert one into a Zombie driver figure? I hope so, that would be so cool. By the way, if you need figures, I have a couple of those Tamiya campus friends I can send your way to modify.

Woah, a vehicle without wheels? Hum, a Zombie killer hover craft! I like the idea. So yes, the rule now is: your vehicle must have 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, and so on wheels . . .

Classy and beautiful, great stance, not to mention the color fits it perfectly.

Oh my, someone is having a blast with this scene. Great job. Very original idea . . . perfect as a photo op backdrop.

That's a beautiful photo . . . lots of atmosphere. It'd most certainly make a great dio.

Wow, we've gone a couple of pages without any pictures (Rob has a legit excuse) and suddenly Sgt. EYEGORE is getting antsy about his eye candy . . .

LOL! Rob, that means you have to keep adding vehicles to the caravan. These are the kinds of builds that will make you lose your mind, and you might just be on your way there!

Bring it on, Peter. Looks like you are off to a great start. Keep it going. Having lots of project on the bench only means you are having fun, staying young, and exercising your imagination, which is as it should be!

You can also use a lazy susan, they are cheap and you can build a wood block stand with some coat hanger wire . . .

Happy styrene addiction, Patrik. Happy styrene journeys. The TOOTHLESS ZOMBIE HUNTERS' BRIGADE awaits you!

It looks like you can cast and supply an aftermarket parts market. That thing looks super cool.

Patrik, I don't see why not . . . I mean, you can steal parts from any source and use them . . . regardless of whether you've used them or not.

Harry, for body work, sure it's not the best choice, but for places where it won't be seen, it's a great way to bond parts . . .
