I really like that pickup rear end idea. The Walrus builds up great, too.

Vermin King, That looks fantastic. In fact I'd say it looks better than mine (and I built the damn thing six plus times). Thanks for building this. It's comforting to know I'm not the only one.

WaspeaterDan, " I might try adding some parts from the Walrus kit to the bigger back end option to make a kinda pickup truck situation" That sounds awesome. I definitely want to see how that goes. Please post your progress. I'm always up for learning new ways to think.

Oh, and how about another silly project? Cinder blocks. I had originally thought I wanted to have a somewhat simplified but still indented piece on each end, but when the original is 8 inches X 8 inches X 16 inches, when you shrink it down, the cardstock is thicker than the indentation, so I plan on making these simple rectangular boxes. Maybe one column of two-blocks high. Maybe a small wall section, 3 or 5 blocks, or even a corner piece. Here's where I am at -- Definitely not in scale ![](https://i.postimg.cc/jLz5Qs77/cinder-block-images.png)

Well, in the course of things, I didn't get my grandson's Batcave Playset done. I was working on the AFT Downloads Batcave, which at 300 dpi actually required enlargement. ![](https://i.postimg.cc/K1HnfFQy/BATCAVE.jpg) Dave Winfield's Koolwheelz Animated Series Batmobile and figures from the forum here. To make a little something that can get done, I took the old Paper Empire Joker 'I Scream' Van and fused it with grendelsmother64's ambulance ![](https://i.postimg.cc/FfsbqZR9/Joker-I-Scream-Van-GM64ish.png) It looks build-able. We'll see

BTW ... Is there a Bruce Wayne figure anywhere? While I am at it ... Richard Grayson? ![](https://i.postimg.cc/KKYXYDG4/IMG-20240808-200358445.jpg)

![](https://i.postimg.cc/62tRgX1W/Joker-I-Scream-Van-GM64ish.png) First revision of my Joker Van kitbash. I expect the head will also be revised, but I have yet to figure out my final version

I believe I mis-interpreted the hat parts. I figured that the jagged wide ends of the cones were supposed to be for alignment when attaching them, but that can't be it. They must be tabs, but if so, they are too small to do anything and cannot be bent without flattening sections of the cones. I will think about it overnight before I cut them off, but I think that's going to be required. If it works, I will adjust the file. I also need to change the top part of the air conditioner unit. In the original file it is dark at one end and almost white at the other, making the seam stand out. I'll make the whole thing grey. I left the two caps for the cylinder on the page, and I wondered why. Well, when you build it, one will look better than the other, so put it on top. ![](https://i.postimg.cc/Whzv1nH0/IMG-20240821-194745379.jpg) ![](https://i.postimg.cc/67rsm18x/IMG-20240821-200903582.jpg) So close, and since this should be my Warren weekend, I need to get it done

Cut them off and it all goes together nicely. Almost easy. ![](https://i.postimg.cc/cvg0Hz3Y/IMG-20240821-220107784.jpg) ![](https://i.postimg.cc/fk2G9KDv/IMG-20240821-220129840.jpg) ![](https://i.postimg.cc/Q9NzBBzP/IMG-20240821-220203564.jpg) Got to get him some figures, courtesy of jackmatt and others. Which reminds me that I didn't print it out because I was still working on Bruce Wayne and Master Grayson
