I sanded the hex rod down so they look like bolts now.

I used the kit windows and scratched what will be working hinges.

I will make vision slots in the clear plastic, then paint the whole thing like an armored hatch. I'm still working on the windshield and front windows.

Yeah, the wheels and tires are available on Ebay at Trevor's Toy Box.

Make sure you view the whole store. I almost purchased the blazer. The one that has loose parts. It's dirt cheap.

It might make a good Zombie Hunter..........

Wow!! the gremlin looks great and in 3 days none the less, it took me more time to figure out what i needed to order for my build.

eveyone elses build looks great too.

This isn't reley much progress but it kinda elplanes my build, i figure thers no gas in the future, at least not essealy acceseable

so i went electric, but power needs to come from some were, after scraping the lightning rod idea, Iwent with solar panneles

Wow, looking awesome everyone. I am getting really jealous. I can't wait much longer for my models now. I might stop by my local hobby lobby tomorrow just to grab something to start building a secondary vehicle or something.

DO IT! I'm sure mine may not turn out very well but I can't resist

I'm kind of shocked no one has mentioned what it is going to be... I was just looking for something smaller scale so I could use the 1:35 military guns and as soon as I saw the tanker online I just KNEW what had to be built.. just so happens hobby lobby had 1 sitting there and the tank was there too $15 a lot better than the $40 m1a1 I originally wanted.. and the size is perfect
