anyways, i sarted on the fornt suspesion, and added a few more little details.

and i kinda need your help, i got a great seat from dirtmodeler, and can decide if i should use it or the other seat, the black one looks cofterble which would be nice for the long drives, but the brass one just looks amazing,

It's the end of the world, your not suppossed to get comfortable. I would go with the seat from dirtmodeler. It just looks awesome.

Joe and Erik, great work. There's lots of great ideas being passed around here. Boy, I am really thrilled to be a part of this one, as if you couldn't tell, right?

I've already begun build 4, and my Swamp Runner build+dio isn't even finished yet.

I was thinking of how the enemy would still have access to higher tech, even if they have to cobble it together from other things.

I'm thinking after Enrico picks up his next caravaneer, the group will run into an "air patrol".

Not so much fighter jet, but mid-level (10-30ft off the ground) flight type of vehicle. I'm thinking of an ionized/magnetic pad levitation hooked to a fusion drive engine(which I am currently scratchbuilding).

I'm also in the midst of writing days 9-14 for the journal entries...

More to come soon!

The brass one looks like something someone could have made him self out in the backyard from some sheet of metall after the bang. So my suggestion is that go whit it.

Folks, here's mini feature video I made of Barry Harker's work which he's shared here: hope you like it and feel the inspiration rising up!

Here comes that feeling again as I start this new build.

Introducing SNIPER: (I was thinking of Zombie Hunting the easy way and the last few moments of Jaws on the ORCA and that crows nest!)

A little tape for guidance and our handy razor saw!

Yes, a crows nest! A great scouting vehicle to spot those TZs from a mile away.

And you also have to ride and shoot in comfort, of course:

I am still working on all the details. The crows nest is going to have some support, braces, etc . . ..

More coming tomorrow. Best, DC

I almost bought one of the saws.. after using an xacto knife to slice the tanker and having to do a ton of block sanding to get it straight I wish I would have gotten one... lol It's looking good.

wow, a crows nest would of never thought, but you'll need some armor up there a enemy will snip you from a mile away, :)

Just one little pic, i got some of the rear suspesion done,
