Irreverent Crew Van
Author: icancmp193

We periodically get threads here on TO about the less-than-optimum service provided by crew transport companies, and I have a few acquaintances who have worked for crew transport firms until they stopped. My twisted sense of humor saw this as an inspiration for a model, using the Brekina Dodge A-100 Van as a starting point.

So, for better or for worse, here we have the freelanced "Pennywize" crew van, featuring Microscale and Rail Graphics decals with a Presier crew. The bearded driver has a turban crafted from Squadron Putty and we did an upgrade on the mirrors. And my apologies, the camera and Microsoft Picture Editor seem to accentuate the amount of weathering, which is actually quite light.

We hope the crew will be carried to their destination safely. I have another one of these vans in the planning stages......

Hilarious. Maybe add some severe rust around the wheel wells.
