from the classic Roger Corman written and directed American International production starring Jan Michael Vincent.
"In a world gone mad from fuel shortages only one man stood strong against the gangs of fuel thieves. Only one man could stop the convoys of armed semi-tankers. Only one man could stop the Mad Macks." Copyright 1975 by American International Pictures.

Started it last Thursday in a flurry of inspiration, frankly I'm surprised I've been able to keep my focus.
Did more work today and it's flowing well, been a donkey's since that happened.
I'm searching for images to 'Shop up an appropriate poster.  ;D

As you all may have noticed by now, I love a pun.
This is excellent.  Can't wait to see it finished.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Knitting needles?

Whatever are they intended to knit, whale fishing nets?  :o  :o
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Progress:




The tank ends need a bit more fiing, then it'll be a little putty and black paint.

Still not finished and still putzing with backstory graphics and 'movie' posters.
