That would be pretty cool alright. It all depends on if he's going to stay within the boundaries of the time period but that does sound good anyways. Me? I'd say go for a color shifting paint but that's just me. lol

What color? I'm guessing a natural metal type finish?

Gotcha Gotcha. Looking forward to seeing the paint in pictures. I have a love / hate relationship going on with paint. Particularly in the automotive realm.

Touché!

Trent Reznor is one of my favourite musicians (besides Beethoven and Roger Waters ;) ) - and what big amount of O.S.T. he produced. Still have the "Seven" music ringing in my ear. Glad he likes it "shiny & chrome" too.

Good point with the MAD MAX theme, maybe I can add some detail here and there. Dont want to spoiler too much, but the REAL Mad Max project will be built later. Ask me in 3 years or so when the other shelf queens are ready.

:giggles:

Most probably based on this Italian WWII beast here, which Italeri brought to the market (who else):
