Funny I would have expected you to enter something with a Studebaker theme, StudeSlayer, StudeBreaker etc. B)

I actually thought about it but, I needed something that would run the competition down.

But there is a long time left, so you never know. A studebaker may come into this. :D

Hey guys, Those vehicles are looking great! Is everyone posting up pics? I thought there'd be more pics posted by now. Speaking of which, I have to take some pics of my progress so far. It's been difficult getting time to work on it... now need to make time to take some pics.

I'm glad everyone is having a great time with this and more people are joining in!

Later,

Eric

there is 2 dozen people in on this but only a half a dozen have been willing to "disclose progress"

i can understand if you are aproaching this from a contest point of view, that you dont want to give away anything

but personally i feel more like we are all trying to do the same thing and helping one another along

so yeah, lets see those pics :lol:

the reason he's not wearing the us colours is because he was a promo from my bank back home (netherlands) for the european championship

so he's proudly wearing the royal dutch orange :lol:

ok. I finally snapped some pics of the DEATH WAGON!

I have the main cannon in place and the front bumper, along with all the upper armor. You can see the gatling gun ni progress along with 2 smalled cannons... also the rims I'll be using. Need to finish lower armor and exo-cage soon.

Here's the pics,,,

that looks awsome diymirage

why thank you

i used painters choice gloss black paint because i had some laying around anyway

i was a little bit worried how it would come out because the spraypattern is very wide

i could paint the entire car in one pass

very pleased with it though

after it cures for a day or two i can start detailing

that gulwing door looks much better now too ;)
