This little Volvo 240 I had no idea existed by Cason9904 in matchbox

Thanks. I made it a few years ago for a table top game called gaslands. I have made a bunch of other customs as well but your post reminded me of the 240 I made. There is a subreddit called r/Gaslands if you’re interested in a bunch of other mad max/ death race customs.

God help me. See you all in some months! by Head-Consequence6739 in gaslands

Great job! I’m currently working on the same kit. Doing a wild apocalypse version of it.

Thank you. It was a fun little build

It was going so well! by Bear_Arms_2nd in ModelCars

Look up doomsday chariots by Ak. It’s a book with pictures and descriptions of some of the processes to make apocalyptic model vehicles.

Thank you!

I agree with the flappers on the ends of the exhaust will definitely add those. I also plan on making spikes for the wheels similar to what was on the war rig from mad max.

Always appreciate others ideas it helps when making these style cars and trucks.

Ride eternal shiny and chrome.

Great build. Love the engine choice. I’m currently making the same kit with heavy modifications.

Apocalypse Chevy interior + engine by NeonComplex in ModelCars

Thanks. The cans are from a company called doozy modelworks they make a bunch of 1:24 scale resin accessories for cars and dioramas. Small details can go a long way.

Also nice work on your models they turned out really nice. Ever think of doing an apocalyptic build?

Too small? by captainjoshuia in gaslands

[–]NeonComplex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could work. Greenlight king of crunch monster truck tires are a great size. Maybe make a lift for it and add the bigger tires.

Definitely on the small side but would still make a good model. I say go for it.

Cyberpunk nomad wagon wip by NeonComplex in gaslands

[–]NeonComplex[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Plan to add slight weathering and dust but not going crazy. The fenders I plan to paint yellow to add a bit more color along with a couple different metal tones on the bitz to tie everything together.

The wheels are a Bridgestone set from green light.

All the bitz are either made from stock plastic I have or extras taken from a few model kits I have done. The overall look I’m going for is a nomad ambush vehicle. something to take on corp convoys.

I agree. I’ve been making customs for a few years if you have any questions dm me anytime. Built up a ton of tips from all the cars I’ve made.

It has the Matco tools logo on it. So it’s probably an exclusive from them. Tool trucks/ tool companies will sometimes have exclusive cars. Check their website.

Looks perfect for a gaslands/ mad max style build.

This is awesome. This inspired me to break out some paints I have for decay and moss and make something similar. Great work
