Dr. Cranky Posted January 25, 2012 Author Posted January 25, 2012 Luis, that looks like a great kit. I think it's going to build up into a wonderful TZH. Keep it going. Thanks for the kind words, Rob. The HHD is coming along . . . next up the white and yellow lines!
Kit Basher Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 He's got a long ways to go though, he's currently on his way down to the swamplands that used to be Florida (and it looks to me that your HHD is set maybe somewhere in the desert? maybe the Mojave?) I'm with ya, Rob. In my world that swamp includes Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama, as well as Florida. And that desert stretches from South Dakota to Texas, N/S, and Indiana to Colorado, E/W. Sucks to be us, huh?
Dr. Cranky Posted January 25, 2012 Author Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) Personally, I like the swamp, although I've lived in the desert too! Edited January 26, 2012 by Dr. Cranky
mopower Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 I saw this and decided to join up, this is my taxi. we can take you anywhere but it'll cost you......
ronr Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 (edited) Doc...You were correct! I am having more fun at the bench than I have had in a long time. Think this might just get me out of my building slump. Going Hi-Tech, Will have a tracking system, moniter, Driver will Cotrol all weapons from the drivers seat. Solar panels for Electric back up power. My eyes and hands just don`t want to work together, having a tough time with weapons. Anyone have any links to where I could purchase some weapons. Or a how-to on building some. Hobby Lobby used to carry 1/35 armor but the 2 I have close by just stopped carrying much Military. Guess I will have to purchase a Military Chopper to get the weapons from. Any suggestions? Oh by the way........I`ll post progress pics when I get a break in the weather.

The question is not when you are going to finish the first, but how many you will build this year? LOL
RodneyBad Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Great looking Plymouth Mopower. I decided hauling extra fuel on the back of my Zombie Charger isn't the best idea and May need a scout rig. Gonna use the same rear axle so I have spare wheels and parts. Monogram Stepside Ford bed F-toys Yamaha RZ 250 (may need a bigger bike) My Resin Fuel barrels Will also throw in a few spare tires if I run across any laying around.
ZombieHunter26 Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 I'm with ya, Rob. In my world that swamp includes Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama, as well as Florida. And that desert stretches from South Dakota to Texas, N/S, and Indiana to Colorado, E/W. Sucks to be us, huh? Ah, I think we'll do just fine besides, the country worked back in the old west, right? It's kinda like that, just more high-tech, and maybe a little less populated.... I'm thinking of a character to drive Swamp Runner- Based on the progress pics i posted a little bit ago that included the near-finished product, what are your suggestions, guys?
otherunicorn Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 (edited) What are the awesome little suspention units? Edited January 26, 2012 by otherunicorn

Dr. Cranky Posted January 26, 2012 Author Posted January 26, 2012 That real vehicle is pure eye candy. WOW. You guys are blinding me with all this fabulous work! Keep it coming!
Dr. Cranky Posted January 26, 2012 Author Posted January 26, 2012 More slow progress on the HHD, but it's coming along better than I expected:
customcreator Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 (edited) ######, I feel like a lazy ass...lol. I haven't even opened the box since the first night.....gotta get me some time on the bench... EDIT: lol, "da mn" is edited, but not ass?? That's funny... Edited January 26, 2012 by customcreator
customcreator Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 More slow progress on the HHD, but it's coming along better than I expected: So will we send our builds to you so you can photograph them on that gorgeous strip of land??
wgflatliner Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 So a mystery person put these on my desk... They didn't have paint, but had tons of glue. I'm looking at the possibilities of using these for this build. They glued everything together, or mostly, and I'm thinking the prowler has more to work with in terms of ideas. Any thoughts?
TenSpeedofGodsBlood Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 I know I'm gonna join this build but I don't have a clue what to build.
wgflatliner Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Hey cranky, this prowler is pretty messed up. You can have it for the diorama as a prop if you want. It would be unpainted and so forth though. I got to inspecting it and the whole front suspension is pretty gnarled (trashed). I'm not going to build it, so you can have it. Pm me your address and I will get it mailed on Wednesday.
Ryan S. Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 I'm in on this. I've got 2 builds that I'm going to play around with. First one is this, a modified monster truck: The other I just started messing around with and will be a AMT '49 Merc. I don't have pictures yet of that one, but will soon once I get a few things mocked up to see how it looks. This build is just too much fun. I've loved looking through all 40+ pages.
wgflatliner Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 You know, now that I am thinking about it, I will build a crashed, pillaged, and rusted prowler for the diorama. This is gonna be fun!
Dr. Cranky Posted January 26, 2012 Author Posted January 26, 2012 I'm sure you will work something out, Anthony. Keep on thinking about the build.
