Back in the day, the early 90's, I vaguely remember having some Micro Machines. These small toy vehicles you could buy packs of. This memory came back to me at random and I started looking on E-Bay to see what was out there. It's wild but I have to speed this up haha. Fast forward and here we are, I have a pack of Micro Machines and an idea.
The vision came together quickly. It will be a fun change to paint something that isn't combat oriented and I can easily see the potential for the car being suspended on a plume of jet. I headed to the kitchen to micro wave some plasicard...
It was dipped in hot water and bent to shape. I also wanted to get some color swatches involved in the form of a painted backdrop. This will add to the elevated look and just make things much cooler in general.
The plume of smoke took a while to come together, I'm not a good sculptor but the white glue really did some work for me. Next up I'll be painting this in a video, I'm going bright!
Cheers,
-Sam

A trip down memory lane! Just got a bunch of them gifted to me after talking about this on Twitch, there will be more!
Thanks, Kai! All done and the video will be up soon! Glad you dig it :)

Awesome little idea! Man, I forgot all about those! I had loads of them back in the day.
Great idea! Really curious how it will turn out in the end... reminds me a bit of the ground vehicle from Mass Effect... some planets or spacy things in back... love it already! 😁
