G'day All,
There are few things I spent more time playing with as a little tacker than Matchbox and Hotwheels cars. Endless hours were devoted to carving roads into the bush rocks around our house or constructing complex race tracks in the sandpit in the backyard.
When Gaslands made its debut I was hooked and have over time I've amassed over 50 cars, trucks and bike making 10 teams or so, plus a range of other vehicles. Quite a few have been painted in previous Challenges if you'd care to look. The opportunity to make another team was not to be sniffed at and so I present for your horror/fascination my latest editions...
High Roller
Riding high and covered in rolled gold, the High Roller will has fat wheels and an even fatter bank roll.
The Purple Perpetrator
Fast. Hard. PURPLE. Get too close and this bad boy discharges right where you least want it (from its custom oil dropper). I KNOW what you were thinking...
Pussy Galore
Pretty in pink. She purrs like a cat and she'll eat you alive. If you're lucky.
The Mar-a-Lago-mobile
Most cars have blinkers. Not the Mar-a-Lago-mobile, it has BLINGERS. Hideous, tasteless, gold blingers on every available surface inside and out. Because enquiring minds want to know there are 173 nail art "gems" that took 90 minutes to glue to this... THING.
4 x 20mm/1:72 cars = 60 points + 50 bonus points = 110 points total.
Thanks for looking!
Cheers,
Millsy









Great work Millsy, I love a bit of Gaslands myself.
ReplyDeleteThat last one gave me a little bit of sick in my mouth :D
Thanks Paul. Felt sick did you? My work here is done :-P
DeleteMy original collection of hot wheels was passed along three times now. Always fun to see more Gaslands cars. The bling machine is definitely point on with its over the top nausea inducing tackiness.
ReplyDeleteAwesome. The Purple Perp made me laugh aloud. :)
ReplyDeleteBrillliant all of them , its so good to finally see the Mar-a-Lago the source of many a swear word during paint & chat!
ReplyDeleteSplendid collection of tasteless tack, nice!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Having listened to you laugh manically while applying those nail art gems, I think I like "Goldenrod" the best but its a wonderfully fun collection to be sure!
ReplyDeleteI laugh maniacally for a range of reasons. This one is more clearly explained and less likely to result in some form of formal investigation than most.
DeleteAmazing work Millsy, very funny too!
ReplyDeleteNice! Something different is always welcome!
ReplyDeleteThe Mar-a-Lago mobile is brilliant.
ReplyDeleteLovely work Millsy - I wish I still had my Hotwheels cars.
ReplyDeleteExcellent road trip and the nail art - well you nailed it. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat looking set of cars, the colours are so bright and vivid.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe it took me this long to think of Car-a-Lago!
