Hey,
For the last few weeks I've been sucked into the world of Dark Future (A 1989 GW short lived game) and a Facebook group has even sprang up https://www.facebook.com/groups/781110145296448/ (https://www.facebook.com/groups/781110145296448/).
Anyway here's my lastest efforts:

Thankies for looking.

Great cars.
I keep finding myself trawling through ebay looking for nicely painted cars for Dark Future but so far haven't had any luck. I don't think I have the skill to make them myself.
Hats off to you.
-
Thankies though it's not that taxing to make DF Cars, just find a few toy cars and stick guns on and then go watch Mad Max and drink beer :)
-
If you get a likely looking matchbox car and stick that mesh used for car body repair ti the windscreen and you are halfway there.
-
Aye as simple as that really, anyway my next WIP Anarchy Cult:

Still all the putty work to do but it's getting there :)

regards minis on foot mate, have a look at the Stan Johansen stuff - think he has some along with some useful conversion bits for cars. Also, there's some decent 20mm models out there you can use that would fit - certainly for para-military / organised gangs - I'd suggest Liberation but I've only seen a few pics of their models as their website is rather bland, but a good selection.
-
Aye those are good but in the end I went with Elhiem & Apoc Miniatures for myself, anyone looking for alternatives try this list:

look forward to see what you do with them. I've a couple of sets of DF here and I think White Line Fever - might have to see if it's all there (the counters, I have the roads etc) and give it a go again.

You should AS, also come and join us on the Dark Future Facebook group. I'm a bit of obsessed with DF atm with half a dozen painted cars in weeks.

Great stuff!
Have just applied to join the facebook page.

Looks very inspiring, especially the top ones. Years ago I had some plans about Crash! but never really bothered.
Maybe now is the time...
