I got a Lanard Starforce Lunar Explorer vehicle from smalljoes a while back (they still have some in stock), and finally got around to doing something with it. It originally had huge twin cannons in the back, but I removed them. Took it apart, painted it all army green and flat black, except for the seats, which I painted khaki. I left the front winch and rear bumper their original color. Sweet little ride, if I do say so myself. Only problem is that figures without the fixed crotch don't sit very well in it. It still needs a few final touches, like the headlights painted.

Put a dark wash on it to pop the details, then dry-brush some silver highlights along the edges, and I could see that being one hell of a cutom Joe vehicle. Might have to get one myself.

Yep, I've got one I planned to paint in OG colors. Sooner or later.

I might get another. I planned on doing the entire original OG, but only got as far as Daina. There were a lot less figures to choose from then - there are a few more out now that would work better than the ones I had proposed on using. Like Bazooka for Horrorshow. I've got another old Corps! vehicle (sort of an APC) that I found at a Goodwill over a year ago, that I might do tomorrow.

Amazing what a new paint job will do.
Good work
