This is pretty much it, unless I get some decals, then I might touch up the weathering with the airbrush.
I made the cockpit to fit modern figures, but the footpegs are ARAH, so it can swing either way. If you didn't see my WIP thread, I combined a Thunder machine with the rear chassis of a Slugger and the rear of the Street Striker, along with some model parts and other bits. One thing that bothers me about the Thunder Machine was the lack of seperate sockets for the 4 headlights. Modular weapons system, can be switched out with a machine gun from a Vamp. In hindsight, this is probably an accident waiting to happen: Thrasher and Zanya at the wheel. I tried to cast the front of the RAM gun to replace these, but it didn't work out, so these may be upgraded later. Smoke Grenade launchers fom two different Warthogs. Dahsboard is also from the Street Striker. Engine is a Small Block Chevy from a 1/16th Monster Truck model. New seats from an old Radio Shack RC car. Thsi was probably the hardest modification. ARAH Thrasher and Monkeywrench. |

Finished up nice. I'd defiantly get some decals for it. Makes me want to build another Thunder Machine now.
