Muties! (Pt. 7, mutant ride)

Sometimes inspiration comes in strange ways. Some weeks ago I made a mistake and bought a different set of razor blades than the usual ones. Main difference is that the blister holding them is bulkier than my regular razor blades. No, wait, keep reading, I promise I'm going to the point right now. When I had it in my hands I suddenly knew I had to do something with it...

OK, we can convene that a roller coaster is way too much. Even for me

If you don't see the thing I envisioned then, just give me some narrow margin. I was suddenly struck by an image of childhood. GIJOE's Oktober Guard Six-Wheeler. I mean this:

If I recall it corectly, comic by Larry Hama and Herb Trimpe, with some glorious stuff by Michael Golden

You still don't see it. Well, cannot blame you. Some oyumaru and bits later, I came to this:

Now we're getting to something

Greenstuff for the seats and more bits to make it look like what I was intending to achieve.

Aha. Now you get a glimpse of the actual thing

I didn't want a plain grey, but not a flashy red either. I thought this would look nice for its purpose:

More or less my original concept. Yes, this is the kind of things I see when at the supermarket

So, with a couple of mutants from the batch I still have pending, this is what I got:

Crossbow from antoher GIJOE old mini, 'Road Pig'. Seemed to fit as main weapon for this vehicle

If a Rhino can hold ten Space Marines, imagine how many mutants fit in here

Not classy, not comfy... but perfecly suitable for these fellas!

Just take it to the desert!

I decided to give it to the muties just because I'm with them at the moment, but the vehicle design (design... whatever) is neutral enough to fit in a number of bands or ambientations. Any civilian industrial carrier, or if you set proper guns on it, you can even give it some military purpose. In fact I think it can make its role for a Genestealer cult (wink, wink).

As I'm posting the pics I realise it needs license plates! Hm. That is to be solved. Anyway, I hope you find this, if not useful, at least funny! RT concept, recycling whatever you have at hand and making a tiny vehicle from scratch.

I'm with the rest of the mutants, hopefully coming soon!
