I finally started working on my pile of shame of forever WIPs.
The first finished result is this. The Rat Bus.
It started out as a diecast 1/72 scale model of a Mercedes-Benz coach. I did some heavy kibashing here. There's at least four different Hot Wheels and two Maisto cars that donated parts to this build.
I also tested some new painting techniques. For the cab I spray coated the whole thing in a rusty brown primer, then added acrylic color with a sponge on top of it. The graffiti is done with Posca markers. I used Citadel Technical Typhus Corrosion and Dry Rust for extra rust and stains.
The Wheels come from a Maisto trailer and hot rod
The interior is painted, but my sh***y iPhone camera doesn't get that
Engine was kindly donated by a Hot Wheels truck called Rat Rig
