I have customized a World Peacekeeper Quad and personalised it I want to do more but don't have any ideas how to. I am doing them for my dreadnoks and have done one for Torch so far. Any ideas how I can do one for Buzzer?

Really? :shifty: I would have to violently disagree with you on that.

If you could post a pic of what you have done so far, we might be able to come up with some ideas

I will be posting it on BFTB on the 1st July Kambei in a customs comp so keep looking on there round that time Ross has seen what I have done.

I'd agree with Kambei, If we saw how you'd done for one, we'd be able to help extend the theme.

"violently" disagree all you like kambei, (is there really any need for violence?) but this is the 2nd time reverse psychology has worked here so thanks for helping out ironblood.
ironblood, as far as bftb goes, most people are open to joe stuff, but a few are kinda closed minded i agree!

First off, seeing the pics of Torch's ride has given me some ideas for all the varius quad type vehicles I've managed to accrue.

I like the touches you've given this one: the skull, the spikes on the front, the stylized weapon. It makes it vary 'Dreadnok', which I like.

I would look at what characteristics each Dreadnok has and what their primary function is.

Ripper would need some type of heavy blades for cutting/puncturing devices, Torch would have some type of flamethrower, Buzzer would have some type of oversized chainsaw.

Monkeywrench seems like he'd have a grenade launcher and harpoon weapon.

I think you could add spikes on the wheels or on the step. These could be used against cars or infantry personnel.

I could see some type of roll cage with spikes. You might even have one with a battering ram to knock down garage doors or break through plate glass windows. Maybe another dragging chains behind it as a flail.

Buzzer should ride a Snowmobile....or a "Snow-Machine" if you prefer....but instead of just regular tracks in the back...It should be Chainsaw blades.

I have found that this kind of rubbish and rather insulting original post don't generally work. It just gets peoples backs up. Most people on here are more than willing to help out fellow customisers with ideas. A polite request like ironblood used works much better.

I agree with nova and DarkJedi.

For Buzzer, have you thought about the large Chap Mei chainsaw that comes with some of teh Bad Guyz figures? Possibly a double row of spikes on the wheels. Also what about some large conical drill on the front like the one from the Microton Micronauts toy.

Ripper's ride could have tyre shredders on all four wheels, with some kind of impaling spikes on the front

Monkeywrench: what about a couple of those recoilless rifles that come with the PTE figures, and a couple of mortars on teh back?

A lot there to take on thanks for the comments and ideas Kambei Ross is a good bloke I happen to like him so any differences in opinion you have with him I'm not interested I just thought it fair to point that out.

I think I have some chainsaw blades they may be too small though as they are Games Workshop scale parts.

You can always try the saw blades that came with Speed Racer Mach 5 toys.
