Zombie Hunter....a work in progress....

[HDMM]

Doing a little work on my Wraith RTR to make it original and my own....

The "Zombie Hunter" is a work in progress so I will be adding stuff as I can get it and get the work done.

So far I have Painted the body with OD Green Krylon Fusion, painted the seats flat black, Installed holders for the modified short barrel shotgun and high power rifle, relocated the battery to the front using the original battery tray with some modifications. I have hinged the front hood for easy battery access, mounted the ESC under the transmission tunnel, added a on/off switch for the LED lights, trimmed off a portion of the roof, installed VP C-Hubs, Knuckles & Lockouts, put on a Robinson 18t pinion.

Waiting on my VP chassis mounted servo kit and new HiTec servo, also waiting on the Sam Fisher (splinter cell) figure to drive this. Also going to be making a spare tire carrier and adding scale accessories, probably PL beadlocks with Super Swamper tires too as money allows.

Dan, I got a scale rocket launcher and a couple m4's from my exo kit if you want em

Heck yeah, that would be sweet! I wanna fully equip this rig for the Zombie Apocalypse!

Did a little experiment, made a sencil of the Punisher Skull and then spayed it on the hood....

That's pretty cool!!! I like the punisher skull on the hood!

I have a little sticker sheet that came with my Gears of War 3 game. They are stickers of the cog with a skull in the center. I thought those would be kinda cool on the right wraith.

Thanks! It was my 1st attemt at doing a stencil and I wanted it to look like it was sprayed on, it came out good, it could have come out alot better if my hood did'nt have holes in it. I used all my old body panels, just repainted them.

Pic of the Wraith Crawling at Palmer Park before I re-did it into the Zombie Hunter. I also used some stick on lead weights on the back side of the rims, front & rear , 1 ounce per wheel. That along with relocating the battery to the front and backing off the coil springs adjusters as far as possible really made a night and day difference in crawlabilty! "thumbsup"

Massive zombie fan here. Have read all the big authors (yep, both of them lol) and many of the smaller, newer ones. Watched most zombie movies ever made. One thing any zombie [del]nerd[/del] fan will tell you is your (seriously Awesome) truck needs some side protection from grabbers and biters. Some chain link with barrel & sighting holes or metal mesh or something... anything, to keep the horde beyond infected arms' reach!

Kick-ass interior, just a fantastic overall effort. That's inspired Very well done!

Thanks guys, it is a work in progress and I will be adding to it as I go. Im having a real hard time finding some 1/10 accessories such as weapons, ammo boxes, etc.

That woudl be great if it was close to 1/10 scale, but 1/35 is way too small.

Had to make a couple of minor modifications to fit Sam in the Zombie Hunter, ended up making a new, slightly longer steering column out of aluminum tubing, had to put a small bend in it at the base to bring it up a little higher too.

Sweet bro, looks like you are ready for the apocalypse! "thumbsup"

 

[HDMM]

Just need some more guns.......and ammo! :twisted:

 

[HDMM]

Thanks! :mrgreen:

 

[user.name]

very simple but it looks great! "thumbsup"

 

[HDMM]

Thanks, I did'nt want to go overboard with it. I do want to ad some more scale details as I find them. I may add a passenger too.

I took out the stock Axial radio system out and I'm in the process of installing my Futaba 4PL into it. Also a HiTec HS5645 steering servo. I want to at a working winch to this as $$ allows.

Thats funny cause I painted my Wraith the exact color (brand and all) with the exact same punisher skull in the exact same place on hood using the same hood pins.................how weird. Would post the website where mine is posted but wouldnt want to get in trouble.
