Bens V8 MQ Patrol of DEATH!!!! The Dreadnought

[Finly Owner]

Thankyou very much! I just had the inspiration to do it after watching movies like DeathRace, and YES, Mad Max. I decided I wanted to have a four wheel drive version of the Interceptor crossed with the beasts from DeathRace. I'm in the process of trying to figure out how to get the armored plating look on the body. Certainly turns a few heads though. I love the smiles and finger pointing I get from little kids walking along with their dads. It also performs REALLY BLOODY WELL out in the bush!

Ben try painting gloss black dots through a stencil (like bolts/ribbets) then rub them back lightly with wet & dry. May need a touch of matt clear to finsh them. Should do the trick.

And when I tried to paint it Flouro Orange but didn't know I needed a white base colour instead of black.

I know, that's why I said it. PML.

nice one I'd help if you were closer have some scrap steel at work and a boilermaker build an outside roll cage and have armor plate around it but might be a bit heavy foe offroad unless you wanna super charge that motor or twin turbo. if only money wasn't a limiting factor!
