Rat Rover

[davemud]

The Rat Rover was inspired by Alaska Offroad Warriors. The "body work" is a combination of honest to goodness rock rash, heat gun, hot glue gun and a bit of grinder work but there isn't too much rust cancer yet. It has to pass mechanical inspection after all!

Paint treatment is a combination of wet on wet laquer and enamel for texture, some sanding and then washes of acrylic paint.

The back story for the multi colour theme is it belonged to a gangsta who thought the different colour sides front and back would confuse his enemies and the cops in a chase. As you can see from the bullet holes in the driver's door he didn't fool his rivals. Fortuneatly when his rivals set it on fire and pushed it into the ravine it ended up in the water. It put the fire out and enabled it to be sold for salvage.

Looks good. And you don't have to worry about getting the body damaged while running it. Any more damage will add to the effect.
