2012 POST APOCALYPSE/ZOMBIE HUNTER COMMUNITY BUILD

[The70judgeman]

I've tried and tried, but for some reason I cannot upload any photos to post. I've followed the "how to" video and nothing. They start to upload and will not complete and post. Any other suggestions?

I use photobucket. Its free and you get lots of storage space. www.photobucket.com

Just save photos to your computer, go to photobucket and upload the photos. Once you have them uploaded you can go to any photo uploaded and click on the "IMG" link. It should briefly say "copied" so you can then go here and paste the link by doing ctrl +v in your response.

When you do that in the response you will see text show up that looks all coded and such. If you preview post you should see the photo. If you see the photo, then add whatever text you want to it and submit the post and we will see the pics.

So, my internet is back on, but you will all still have to wait until I get home from work tonight before I post new pics!

So much to show you guys... I hope you're ready for a bunch of posts from me coming up!

Thanks Mark for the info. Tried it...didn't work. Maybe it's me, I don't know. Pretty much have given up trying anymore. I'd say about 50 times is enough for me. If anybody wants to see what I've build so far on my TZH truck, you can go to my youtube channel...find 70judgeman and there is a short video on the truck. Sorry guys...I'll finish the truck, but I'm done trying to post here.

Those with question marks next to your names, you have posted to this thread but have not made it clear if you ar joining or not. I have only posted select pieces of what people have said they will work on when they started or have let me know after I made this list, and have not really gone through and updated what you guys are actually working on. I counted 84, including the names with question marks.

If you guys email me what your building and the name of it, I will keep an updated list of who is working on what that I can post each week or two. Email me your name as it appears in my list or if you are not on the list and want to be (and if you are on the list and aren't participating), let me know at Uberdeath322@gmail.com. Any other info you want included in the list, let me know.

[Agent G]

Hey Doc....I am SO disappointed in my Hobby Lobby, Michaels, & Hobby Store. Traveled 40 miles one way as there is NOTHING hobby wise in my town. No luck on any weathering supplies at all Any other ideas on weathering supplies or how to make some homemade weathering supplies? Money in tight supply so I need to make it count.

On the plus side I did pick up a, skull & crossbones charm, a metal grate & 2 guns from a 1/24 Huey Chopper, a German HANOMAG Sdkfz251/1, & a 1/35 Howitzer. Will try to post pics later. Can't wait to see if my skills are up to this & if not if I can get them there.

Joe, AK interactive washes are thin enamels, pastel powders are just artist chalk pastels ground up in a jar. Enamels, oils, pastel sticks and chalk make fine weathering supplies. I will be using good old desert dirt from my backyard when it is time to dust up my truck. I'll sift it into an old butter container and brush it on.

I have a couple of small dollar store ladies eye make up compacts. These have a nice waxy eye liner in various rust or brown shades. They are the bomb for rusty exhaust pipes. They even have an applicator but I use a flat brush mostly.

Seriously, look outside the hobby shop, and treat yourself to the make up isle.

Time for a update on the '57 Chevy.Since my first post(on page 38) I have made a lot of progress,1st body added more armor and bars to the window.2nd the interior,added a TV screen for a on board camera`s so the driver can keep on eye on the hoard/help weapons control.Also added a control panel for the weapons,made using styrene and small screws.3rd was adding a some sheet styrene to the back of chassis for a flatbed look and a cargo/weapons area.The under side of the bed will be filled in to give it a more solid feel.The 4th item was the chassis.The rear suspension is from a Chevelle donk,it will be added later for a better apperance.Got to find a better front axle,the one I have is for mock up only.Wheels and tires are from a toy truck that was found at Value Village.Also the motor is supercharged 454 from the same chevelle that donated the rear suspension

There is a change from the pics,the bed does not have the two sheets with the curves cut out.This was for some tanks that were made from the NHL version of a Kinder Surprise Egg.I have since changed for some tanks taken from a Peterbuilt truck.

The next update will hopefully be quicker,will include a front protection/weapon,rear deck/tanks/weapons

That is all for now going to continue on the build,and try to figure out a name for it.Thanks for looking

[Ryan S.]

I built up a mini-gun yesterday from some parts box pieces and some aluminum tubing. I might re-do the barrells. It's really hard to drill small holes so close together.

[Dr. Cranky]

Ryan, that looks freakin' cool, man. Nice work scratch-building what you need and will look great on your build.

Joe, thanks for the updated list, I moved it to the first post. 84 folks in the CARAVAN. I am just floored by the level of participation. Wonderful!

Keith, that's a great vehicle and a wonderful contribution to the SQUAD!

Mark, thanks for helping out with Judgeman's build. Excellent. Goes to show how generous folks are on this forum!

[Supercar-G.]

Hello guys ! update time .

I am using a front suspension from an old car chassis for the rear suspension, looks a little wierd but it is a fictional truck lol.....

and aluminum seal from a Great Value big ground coffee can.

Efren, I wrote you a message back in your YOUTUBE CHANNEL to thank you for the amazing gift you sent me. Wait until you see them on the Highway to Hell diorama!

[Dr. Cranky]

STOP THE PRESSES!

Folks, I'm writing this in big letter so you will pay attention for a moment.

Will everyone take a moment and please take ONE PICTURE (the best picture you can muster) of your build where it is right now and POST it here.

With your permission I would like to make a photo slide video for the Lab-RAT-ory channel of all the your WIPS as they are right now.

THANK YOU! You can post your single picture and then continue on with the build.

[diymirage]

STOP THE PRESSES!

no visible progress yet cap'an

but we did run across a burned out chevelle on a scouting mission

it looks like it hit a mine or something that blew the bottom end of the motor out

we were able to scavenge the blower and mount it onto galloper

(keep your eyes peeled for a missmatched hood with firedamage )
