Zombie Hunter Hotel on Wheels ;)

[Jeeves]

Well-- just picked this up on eBay a couple weeks ago--

Was thinking of going all Mad Max on it...figured I ought to open up some cabinets first- and that means opening up doors and boxing them out...

More to come...

Gun racks inside the camper?

This should be fun

Been thinking about doing a zombie car myself, this subject could make a nice campaign.

 

[Bagge]

you're off to a good start with this one!

And don't forget...

Looking forward to see more of this build

Cool Mike , looks like you can go to town makin it nice an dirty , dusty and decrepitated .

 

[Jeeves]

Thanks everyone!

That's the plan Glenn...maybe a camo finish on the outside

 

[Duke Maddog]

This looks like it's gonna be fun! I gotta watch this one!

 

[ausf]

This'll be neat.

 

[Jeeves]

More work done...

First up is the office area waaay too clean- but its a start-

The engine-- also way too clean-- want to add much more detail in hoses and the like but am still trying to find good reference pics...

And lastly-- my work on the cabinets after some oils...

 

[Tankbuilder]

Shalom.

I like the woodgrain. Is that molded on or did you scribe it yourself?

Cheers from Peter

 

[Jeeves]

Thanks Peter...the detail was there- I just brought it out with the oils after a base coat of Vallejo dark flesh.

 

[Bagge]

the cabinets looks awesome!

Here is a pic of a dirty engine wich gives an idea how it should look

I looked at using some of the flesh tones for the props, looks like I should have, looks great so far Mike

 

[Jeeves]

Thanks guys!

Mats...thanks for the pic...I've seen a few but what I can't figure out is where is the battery and windshield washer tank? I was thinking of adding them but can't seem to see them in the pics I've found? If they are underneath, it seems it would be hard to refill your fluid?

MP...I learned that trick from your Dad during his OD class . He used it on his tool handles and I've used the tip ever since. Thanks to Bob Letterman for that!!

 

[Bagge]

Battery is normaly on the side next the engine or inside the bus, not sure if the camper had extra batteries? the wiper fluid is somewhere in the front behind the dashboard i think.
I think with a build like this you can put some extra batteries in the back, they need that to beat all the zombies (and not end up as in the zombie movies, with a flat battery and eaten!)
Happy new year

Here you see it, but this is an older bus but it should be something like that
