Absolutely love these trukks! Just having a look at the rubber tracks you've used, how did you find painting them? I've always found them a bit of a faff to paint without the paint cracking in the process.

Cheers guys. I'm gonna spray paint the battlewagon today and hopefully Chuck wom base colours down but it will take a while.

The rubber tyres weren't actually too bad to paint, they are some hard rubber as I think they are for rc cars. I just chucked down 2 layers of spray paint but they have come out a bit sticky so I'm pondering some Matt varnish.

I've got my hands on some mdf bases for the buggies. Probably going to use them as the snazzwagons

Ah, the 'What should I use all those buggies I already have as?" conundrum. Feels familiar ...Good luck on the rubber, I haven't risked it yet.

Battlewagon has a basecoat..... time to get the brushes out again
