Around the first of this month, another over-due kickstarter finally bore fruit and delivered its promised miniature. I still find it funny when I go to the Kickstarter website, it tells me I still need to complete my survey for this mini. That and I got a shipment notice from Hyacinth Games two weeks after it arrived.
Its a very well cast kit! |
Its for the Wreck-Age game (which I know nothing about other than it has a post-apocalypse setting). It came a pair of huge (go figure) machine guns to mount on the hood, but...they looked like something off of a world war one biplane. Yes, because those are common in the modern day much less post-apocalypse. So into the bitz box they went..
The dried ink on the hobby mat looks like this jalopy is leaking a vital fluid of some sort. |
Really the only complaint is the lack of wheel wells on the car. There's literally no suspension travel available. Though I figure that that's less the result of being a pre-apocalyptic Tuner, but rather because its an old econo box who's suspension is shot due to the excessive weight of its Hillbilly armor.
Any idea how you are going to paint it? I was thinking Ashwaste Utility Vehicle for the Enforcers?
ReplyDeleteNice! I am still awaiting my delivery as well, hadn't heard a peep out of them in months and months. Guess I ought to check in. Looking forward to seeing what you do with 'em!
ReplyDelete@Neverness: Not sure yet. I was pondering painting the tarp as a TN state flag (or rather I might attempt to) and just make it a post-apoc-diorama of some sort. I should have photographed it with a mini for scale, but it's the perfect size for 28mm 40k minis to drive around in.
ReplyDelete@Mordian: Yeah you might want to. I haven't checked back to see what their progress has been with deliveries since getting this. They're really responsive to KS messages though, as I had issues (and apparently still do) with their pledge manager.
Chunky!
ReplyDeleteFunnily enough, I've just had a prod at some slightly different 'Mad-Maxing' over in my corner of the blogosphere!

If clouds can hold data then yes, spheres can have corners!
