901meister Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 Hello Professor Suarez and fellow styrene addicts. I've been following the Dr. Cranky on YouTube for some time now and have decided to join the Zombie Hunt. Here is my build based on Monogram's '80 Ford Bronco. Still pretty rough, but gradually getting there. Al
ZombieHunter26 Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 So, here is my living will just in case Super Bowl Sunday shift (aaaaaalllllllll daaaaaaaaaayyyyy LOOOOOONG) succeeds in giving me an aneurysm from all the mindless BS I'm gonna deal with along with non-stop go go go from minute one til waaaaay into the late night- Take my models and all my parts, and finish them, good doctor! ....just kidding- I won't really die... ...but I am definitely NOT looking forward to tomorrow. Good night boils and ghouls, I'll try to get SOMETHING done build-wise in the next few days.
patami Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 STOP THE PRESSES! 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. I ll give my premission and enclose my wip.
patami Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 (edited) As you can see i ll go for a newer car and old tech. My picture of future is that in a world where allmost all recourses has been used there will not be any car bodys made out of metal left,or if there are they are so rare that allmost no one will be able to drive around in one. After the big tumult in 2012 all the engines that contaned any sort of computer guided tech has become obsolite allmost over night. So resourcefull TECHNICIAN starteted to use pre compurezide engines in non metal bodies. So thats why i ll be using a 454 and a 63 vette irs. By the way just realised that a zombialienmonster some how has been able to sneek up on me and got up on my bed. Well have to turn one of the roof mounted plasma canons it s way and blast it to hell Edited February 5, 2012 by patami

otherunicorn Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 (edited) Busy day today: I had my junkyard collection of parts arrive on Friday. Would you believe there was not a single 1:25 supercharger in the lot! Drag car - engine missing. Rear engined Hemi - front and rear blower plates, but the blower itself was no where. Lots of flatheads in near useless condition. There was a monster truck in 1:20(?) scale that had a blower though. Mostly a little presure popped all of the glue joints which were over paint - until I got to the blower, and that was well and truly stuck! It is now stuck on the caddy engine instead. The engine has been raised about 5mm at the front to make it "more in your face". 1:20 blower and its wonderful belt were attached after a suitable manifold was bodged together. Gaping maw of a blower scoop is being made. Kudos if you recognise what it started out as. The interior is full of nastiness, but it isn't grotty enough yet. Whatever the grotty stuff is, it is holding onto the steering wheel. The horrible muck dribbling down its sides is 5 minute araldite that has been painted with polishable Mr Color Dark Iron paint. Other dribbles are clear red and smoke from Tamiya, and fluoro green from a 22 year old Mr Color jar. Wheels were aqua/pale blue from the junkyard lot. I vaguely recall owing a car that was that color, but have no recolection of what it was. Perhaps I just had the wheels from another junkyard lot. A fellow gave me his left overs when I worked at a hobby shop. My other build giving it a shunt. Edited February 5, 2012 by otherunicorn
Dr. Cranky Posted February 5, 2012 Author Posted February 5, 2012 Cool, I've copied all the builds posted so far. Those of you who still have not done so and feel anxious or hurried, do not worry, there will be a part 2 to the video. Although please do keep posting your progress here. Thank you.
