WWG Crushed Cars

I recently reviewed the garage from the WWG Mayhem Junkyard set. There are lots of interesting accessories and props in that set. Amongst the props are a small collection of crushed cars and here they are.

This photo shows you all of the crushed car models that comes with the set - five single cars, a stack of two cars and two stacks of four cars.

These were incredibly easy to make, as they are all simple box shapes. However, I did add a special Vampifan wrinkle to make them look more realistic. Before I stuck the printouts to the mounting card that reinforces each model I scrunched up the photo paper printout and then smoothed it flat with my hand. Obviously, I couldn't smooth them perfectly flat and nor did I want to. When I stuck the printout to the mounting card I was left with uneven surfaces. Once the cars have been through the car crusher they are not going to come out perfectly smooth. There will be dents and wrinkles in the bodywork. This was my simple method of replicating that effect. Believe me, it works well.

Here is my 28mm scale figure of Vampifan standing next to one of the stacks of four cars, the stack of two cars and one of the single cars.

Here is a side view of the stack of four cars and the stack of two cars, which I'm pleased to see are not all facing in the same direction.

As with all of WWG's models the texturing is just amazing. These cars really do look to be in a very dilapidated condition.

I was wondering whether to classify these as vehicles or scenery, but seeing as they can no longer drive and are just static they have to be classed as scenery. They are useful for cover or barricades and of course, you can stack as many as you want on top of each other. There are fifteen cars in total, so you could make three stacks of five cars. Or lots more if you print out more of them.
By the way, the Mayhem Junkyard set does include a car crusher, but I haven't made it yet. Don't worry, it will get made soon as i have already printed it out.
