Barbie's Dream Post-Apocalyptic Gun Truck
15mm scale
The Dream House... Barbie's eyes grew distant as she re-counted their remaining bullets. It felt like a thousand years ago. So many windows, they couldn't hold it... and then Skipper, oh god! The flames as they ran... She slammed the crate shut. "Move it, Ken! Get that gear on board. We can't stay here, it'll be dark in twenty minutes!"
The Hot Wheels Barbie Dream Camper was an obvious choice for a post-apocalyptic Gaslands-style conversion job! Because of HW's variable sizing, the end result is actually very close to 15mm scale, so it makes the perfect ride for those post-apocalyptic survivors hunting zombies/fascists/mutants in the grim future.
Total working time was about an hour, and I didn't even repaint the main body. It's just coated with matte varnish and then dirtied up with Agrax Earthshade and a bit of brown paint. Gotta keep that candy pink and Barbie branding!
Hehehe, I can imagine Barbie gunning down Scooby-Doo crew with that machine gune on the roof! ^^
