Thanks guys.

Latest one is the Ratcatcher, half sports car/half dumper truck with an added cage for prisoners.

That's just too cool.

Love the Brass mesh cage, nicely built.

I think this one is my favorite so far.

I was going to agree, but after seeing his latest work.......ehhhh.....I think they're ALL my favourite! ! Still waiting for some nice paint to be attached to them!

Great stuff! Can't wait to see how these will look painted up!

Very inspired!

Some more nice stuff. What are you using for the armouring and the bumpers etc? Is it plasticard or foam of some kind?

These are really cool mate! Can't wait to see them painted!

Thanks guys. I'm doing all the builds first so I can batch paint them so a bit of a wait for pigment...

It's various plasticard, and occassionally a bit of metal or scraps off a previous car. Once you've done a few you have a pile of interesting bits.

My best advice in doing these builds is to save the offcuts. If you cant use them in other cars, they make great 'stuff' for scattering on junk terrain and other PA applications.

Very nice work on these. I can't wait to see them painted.

Can I ask what rules you plan to use for the gaming?

Sure, I'm thinking of using the movement from Car Wars, and cobbling something together for the combat as I'm having very few vehicle mounted weapons. I'll be digging out my old Car Wars rules and having a look at the petrol rules, and other car games for a clue.

As Scurv said on his Mad Max thread, Car Wars are good solid, and much adored, rules - but with a great number of cars it can get too much.

I'm also considering an element of bingo, namely for each turn a player gets a random chit, "Oh", "what", "a", "lovely", and "day" which once a full set is played an heroic move can be done, something like succeed in a roll without having to roll, etc...

even the 5 segment turn was a big improvement. And use the fire rules from 5e

get the old chassis and crossbow rules for car wars.

Aye I think those were tied in with the petrol rules...

5e? I haven't bought any car wars rules for decades.
