Wasteland fuel tanker

[Cheyenne]

Haven't been totally idle .......

Still needs some washes and a little of this and that , basically though this will be the finished vehicle , ..... maybe , ........ maybe some screened wheel guards , ........ maybe .......
Sorry for the multitude of pics , ........ but I haven't reall built in awhile and I'm trying to get my mojo back .

Thanks guys , ........... the school that was closed down for mold Labor Day weekend has been finished .
Totally gutted and refinished floors to ceilings , ....... no more 6 - 7 day weeks at 12 hrs. a day !!!

I'll finally get some normal bench and family time back now .
I used to check in here before work 4 - 5 am before work and if I wasn't too tired 7 or 8 at night .
Now I can spend more time here also !!! :laugh:

I love it!
great weathering Glen, especially your scratches on the yellow doors of the cab and the fading blue on the tank. Mad Max eat your heart out.

Iam , .......... Ian , ............. Bro ............. thanks man !!!

Erik , thanks dude !!!

I used the dinosaur , old school method .
The whole thing was sprayed with red oxide regular old auto primer .
Yellow and three different shades of blues with some masking , then a small wire brush and hobby knife for scratches and damages , ............ all body paint , ..... rattle cans .
Polyscale water based rust for different rust shades against the red primer where it shows through the yellow and blue tankerbody .
Still needs some more weathering/dust overall and some blues to blend and transition in some of the decals on the back .
Then she's done .

I spent yesterday reffing gas stations and diners and started a 30 some odd year old Tamiya M577 bucket [ highway orange ] with an old Verlinden plow .
The plan is to take the gas station and diner and crap em up real good for that wasteland/Mad Max/abandonded look .
