Title: My Servants of Ra and their All Leather Steam Chariot!

Poor lighting and obsolete digicamera have made this a pretty dodgy pic, but you get the idea

Looks great but should that be 'all leather' or 'all weather'?

I prefer "all-leather" for some reason ;)

Nice work Freelancer, I love the blues on the professor's quilted jacket.

Good work , nice scene!
Where did you get those fine wheels on your truck?

Wheels are from an old GW kit (Gorka Morka Orks I think)

looks good.

What did you use for the truck?

I want to build a steam Omnibus for my IHMN-EOTD games in London and this looks just the ticket!

Cheers

It was a Matchbox Models of Yesteryear range. The local market has a guy who sells collectable toy cars. This one was out of its box so he sold it to me for $10. I made it even less collectable by tearing the wheels off and adding heavy metal wheels :D

Thanks for the tip - those look great and very appropriate for the setting. (Of course, now that the word is out their prices will skyrocket on ebay!  :o)
