With my current emphasis on 15mm in mind, I dug them out to see if I could come up with anything. The tires; the tires were still a problem. I looked around a bit more and came up with a solution. I cut the wheels off some of the left over, out of scale vehicles from my previous vehicle project and replaced the tires. It worked better than I imagined it would. So, here I am with some rather unique 15mm vehicles; an extended cab pick-up, a VW Beetle, and Jeep Commander looking SUV:
Additionally, there was a truck that was missing the glass, for some reason. I mulled ideas around and came up with this; a burned out vehicle:
Those are the original tires, painted to look like rims. |
Those vehicles look great. I followed the link to the previous post using the Toobs set. That was very well done. I especially like what you did with the police cars, van and UPS van. I think the wheel swap came out very well, also. You don't happen to have a pic of the new vehicles before the wheel swap, do you? It would be nice to see the change from before and after.
ReplyDeleteLuckyjoe,

Yup can imagine what they looked like nice job with the new tyres....
