    Hey Danny I’m usually into trains been collecting matchbox at 3a year watching you doing these have me wanting to try a smaller and away from train to add variety to life . Just wanted to say thanks for the inspiration I’m an old man and got time to spend this is relaxing and fulfilling glad to see something other than video games

    Danny I must say well done, I’m not much of a post apocalyptic type of guy I was into Gaslands for about a minute a minute and a half but I’m over it but you really put a spin on things and I really appreciate it it looks good. I have two Lamborghinis that were not fully realized from another builder I’m giving them to you and donating them to the channel so you can fully realize them, Adding your touch on them they should look beautiful do with them what you will. Again, excellent job!

    More about modelling skills than other channels. You are very good at what you do. I was less keen on the wrecked vehicles on the side as it deflected on a good view of the post apocalyptic Ferrari. But all in all great work.

  • @KollectingKaos
    @KollectingKaos Před 5 lety +4

    Just a random thought I had as I watched this, have you ever thought about putting a few dents in the bull bars? Giving it the impression of being used as a ram occasionally. Great work btw, to bad I can only put a thumbs up on it one time.

  • @johnkelley9877
    @johnkelley9877 Před 5 lety +1

  • @Winterchylde
    @Winterchylde Před 5 lety +1

    Some nice touches there, especially the maps pinned up in the back of the truck...
    It's often struck me that, in a post-apocalyptic world, cars such as Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and Rolls-Royces would no longer have any real intrinsic statement value - their only value would be whether they ran or not...

    • @RichardRenes
      @RichardRenes Před 5 lety +1

      True... still... some will run better than others... Some say that Ferraris especially, are not the best runners of the lot. I heard you must sign a waiver stating that you can never tell how many times it breaks down etc, before you even buy a new Ferrari.

  • @seangere9698
    @seangere9698 Před 4 lety +1

    Love your Mad Max/Zombie Apocalypse style kit bashing. One thing you should think of for the next time you use car bodies for armor is to crush them down makes for a much better and practical armor then a fully formed body stuck to the side like that. You should be able to anil the cars by heating then up, without melting them, then put them between two sheets of thick steel and then use a good vise or a heavy hammer and give them a few whacks. Might want to try it on a few first to get how hot you need to be to do it before doing it for a vid.

    Corvettes are made out of fiberglass. They don't rust or dent like steel bodied cars.

  • @tedjones1021
    @tedjones1021 Před 5 lety +1

    I think these turned out great, always fun to watch but this is probably my favourite so far.
    The one thing I can think of off the top of my head to do, not necessarily better but different, is to offset the turret on the cab to the side.
    If you wanted to be really extra about it, you could cut a hole in the top of the cab and make a pintle-mounted gun, but you'd need a decent prop to use for it
    My favourite detail is the spare chasses hanging off the sides. This would be perfect for if they make a sequel to the Mad Max game

  • @BrotherDog
    @BrotherDog Před 5 lety +1

    Beautiful work, but there's a problem with the Corvette body. Their bodies were fiber-glass, which can't dent, scrape or rust. They would crack and shatter. Not absolutely positive, but same thing goes for the Ferrari. I hope this gives you some fun ideas for future stuff.

    I remember there was a game that was kind of Mad Max it was called Roadkill if you have a PlayStation 2 or a Xbox or a Nintendo GameCube you should pick that game up I don't know if that game came out in Europe or in Australia I know it came out here in America

    Very nice and detailed build. The Maps are awesome, but sadly nobody will ever see them!
    I don't like the two added carbodies to the transporters side. Some armorplates are way better suited for this task. The front "Bullbars or better "smash the Stardestroyer" bars are totaly oversized, and the machinegun is placed on the wrong side. Look at the handwheel on its left side, how anybody should use this on this position?
