   Battlecar 3 - blankBack in 2008 Jim Hartman was creating a series of Battlecar models, the first two kits are here; One Monk DownloadsWhen I acquired all of his files five years ago I came across a prototype for the third version...and then forgot about it. Recently I spent a week in the hospital and I remembered this old project, which I've now cleaned up and released. The second link is for the blank version of the model so that people can make their own color versions, which I'd be happy to collect and host. The first two kits were themed around corporate sponsorships for their color schemes. What I'd really like to see is a collection of Battlecars themed around Paper Model creators. Have fun with these and please post your designs.  Battlecar 3 - blank |

Is there a time frame? Only style 3, or can we repaint 1 or 2?

I'm getting better. The doctors told me it was the worst case of shingles they'd ever seen. It was the Ramsay-Hunt version so half of my head was enflamed and it felt like my teeth were being electrocuted every two seconds. The hospital put me in isolation and gave me 8 different medications, the food was pretty good though. I've still got crazy pains stabbing my ear and half my face is mostly paralyzed, makes it hard to wear my glasses when the muscles around the eye don't work correctly.
I'm getting better though, thanks.

Shingles are NO FUN! Sorry to hear that. I caught a case early and missed most of the issues one can face. I was very lucky and it still sucked. I was also dating a doctor specializing in geriatrics at the time so THAT helped.

As I have no logo, or even a name, this might be a longer term project

Vermin King, I think your avatar would look great on the side of a car. Maybe with a purple body and yellow fenders.

Maybe I can mock it up like my son Michael's first car, a purple Cavalier that he wanted a custom paint job on.    I don't have any photos with the spoiler on the back, unfortunately. He had found a cavvy on the internet, and then we mocked up different ways to mimic it, and this was what he decided on. Talk about a long hot day in the paint booth. |

I mainly use it to mirror announcements that I make here, in two places on Facebook, and on Patreon. I'm also pretty sure that all of the blog followers are here in the forum. |
