That's a great dio! The shot of the soldier looking at the zombie horde from some iffy cover reminds me of "Blackhawk Down" - same sense of desperation.

I'm a sucker for Masterbox kits (despite their shortcomings) and I ordered the Prospector and kit #6, with the Mohicans and two white settlers.

That's looking good! Are you going to put the welding equipment on the deck?

Greek Tornados:








Given the way matters seem to go in that part of the world, how about Turkish Tornados?

So, we are off.
Decided on an Arctic Circle Expedition Vehicle for tourists.
Possibly not the best vehicle for this, but maybe the operators came across some cheap BT-70/80 hulls that offered some decent off road capability, with some vestige of amphibious capability still intact.
To create a more comfortable passenger space, the hull was modified with an larger space with windows and better environmental systems.

I think I will try this build using 3D printed bits and pieces to see how that compares to my normal uber scratchbuilding methods

So to start, some chunkier wheels, based on tractor tyres and roughed out passenger space.


Of course this could all change if the mojo changes  ;)

The Canadian section at a supermarket in France:
Hmmm ... no Saskatoon Berry jelly? Do they keep the poutine in the freezer section? Sacrebleu!

The Maple Syrup Cartel ensured that all shelf space would be allocated to maple syrup related products...

The second guy has run right out of his boots!

Thanks for the idea Kerick.  Had to cut his legs to fit inside.  Not jumped out of his boots but stepped in something nasty – didn’t want to soil inside his vehicle so took his boots off & will drive back to the workshop in his socks.

That will be some interesting weathering steps! I’ll be watching!
