I am having a go at making a futuristic 4x4 pickup truck for my Junkers to drive around in blowing stuff up.

I have not tried to make a vehicle before so it has taken me a long time to get to where I currently am as I am learning as I go (and making mistakes as I go too)

All in all though for my first attempt I think it may be good enough to release through my business, at least when it is done that is..

Here is a variant I have started work on.
Again quite simple as my skills are brand new and I don't want to attempt anything too complex, BUT again, still not finished..

Oh yes it will have bitz on it.
Maybe those hubcaps that don't spin when the wheels do, but with diamonds in them?

:D

Maybe some tie downs or tow hitches, i would think junkers are like space faring red knecks. Gotta have their beat ass chevy they use for work.

The main Bullfrog Pickup itself is done.
Added some hinges on the front to show where the cab hinges forward so the driver can enter.
Has a wiper, some headlights and twin loud exhausts to scare the locals into thinking a bigger vehicle is coming.

Almost finished the rocket pod variant.
Just need to green stuff a few hoses and doo-dads.

It is not a slick clean CAD image, but they all end up looking the same when cast, IE like metal.
So hopefully once a master is done I can get it into a production mould and then have some Junker games!

All in all I am pleased with my first attempt at making a 6mm vehicle.
There are flaws and some of the edges are a fraction of a degree out unlike my CAD models, but this is a junker vehicle after all, that and I want to practice my scratchbuilding.

Not the greatest sculpt or indeed the greatest military vehicle.
But as my first attempt at making my own vehicles I am happy enough to offer it for sale.

With enough practice I hope to offer to truly excellent models as made by my own fair hand.

This goes on sales soon as a pack of 4 models, 2 of each.
