paul@detaildownunder Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 This was finished a while ago but I'm still adding things to the tray as I find and think of them (some suggestions would be great)so far I've added a coil of scratchbuilt barbed wire a jerry can and empty timber crate........................enjoy the pics.
Gray Smith Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 Sgt Ratus is looking good Paul...I like aircraft/army themed vehicles alot...this one certainly looks like its seen the life too.. the only addition I could see to the bed or crate would be some old ammo boxes and maybe a well used m16 and or 1911 on the seat inside...I think someone resin casts some stuff like that in 1/24/25th scale... if not then I think you might even be able to find them in plastic in the right scale... then if you really wanted to go off the deep end....I think there is a 1/24th Willys army jeep availible with a .50 cal on the back.....you could mount that in the bed(hmm that gives me an idea.....) Cool stuff man...

It's difficult to find firearms in 1:25, but I think the Joker Goon car comes with an M16 and some other miscellaneous hardware that could be used. Anyway, that's a cool rod right there. Is that a .223 shell on the carbs?
Raul_Perez Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 Paul, Another great build!!! I also build dioramas, so I know what you mean by never really being finished. There's always something that you can add... This one looks great just the way it is. I really liked the air scoop!! Raul

The Aircleaner I Machined out of brass and just made it to the size i needed I would have used a real one but Weapons are a pretty big no no here in Australia so I did'nt like my chances of finding a real one in a similar size.

If you ever come to TN, you need to come and look in my back yard then. Bet you would be able to find shells of any available caliber out there.
Dr. Cranky Posted November 22, 2007 Posted November 22, 2007 Wow, that's a neat build . . . I love it. Innitially I thought you had used a bullet casing . . . . that's very cool!
