Title: Ride eternal - Doof warrior and friends for Gaslands 20/11
Post by: Ogrob on November 17, 2019, 02:42:15 PM: Hey guys!

Being such a North Star fanboy I picked up Gaslands Reloaded, tokens and plastic sprues from them when they released. Had been eyeing the game for a while anyway as I'm a big Fury Road fan.

Been tinkering with cars, struggling a little with the scale and with mechanical parts. I'm so much more comfortable converting organic material compared to the impressive plasticard bashing I see people do on the internet.

Either way, here's a photo of one of my first cars. Hot Wheels monster truck with North Star bits and plasticard.

What do you think?

Creating Gaslands cars is fun!

A lot of the weapons are fairly generic, it might be an LMG, and HMG or a mini gun - depending on what a person thinks a certain weapon looks like.

Sure, you can optimize in this game, but you never really know what's going to happen.

Today my heavy truck with flame thrower got to shoot zero times because it lead the race until it blew up.

There are not a ton of companies making resin bits for this scale, but I did find the amplifiers eventually. The doof warrior I got from a shop on Etsy.
