Okay I have a serious question here. Following a nuclear apocalypse (assuming that is the situation) we would experience a nuclear winter. A huge drop in temps for a loooooong time. Are we building assuming we are doing the fictional desert hot Max Max-esque scenario or a true nuclear winter? This would definitely change my build plans. So let me know whatcha think.
any really up to u iam doind a few for this build so iam doing different scenario's

Thanks Man. The Zombie started life as a WWE wrestler. Walmart sells these little 3 packs of wrestler guys for about 7 bucks. They are not hard resin, they are kinda rubbery. basically just did some small mods to him and painted him. gotta finish his legs...

The nuclear winter theory was shown to be flawed and exagerated. When Saddam lit off all those oil wells in 1991 it tested a lot of the nuclear winter data and found it had less impact that they had expected.

Not to say a nuclear winter apocalypse setting should be eliminated, just that it is no more accurate than the desert like Mad Max climate.

As long as we are not limited to a specific end of civilization setting, I've been wanting to do a zombie apocalypse grocery getter for awhile now. I was going to do it in the death race build but it didn't really fit.

I went and bought 2 new kits to build today for this build. Making one a bigrig defense style vehicles with all sorts of armor and a smaller tactical jeep.

2:can my kommand kar be entered?

3:can i do the abandoned/zombie like weathered down idea.It will look as if it went thru a apocalypse so can i do it?

I might join in on this, when is the deadline? I've got alot of other things to do but if the deadline is far enough away, then I'll enter with a 50 ford f-1, it was a lowrider with sparkle flip flop paint, but the rest of the kit was warped and fought me the whole way, so let me know.
