A beefier version of the Crate!
Those old wheels looked a little rickety, so they got swapped for the Creepy T set. This meant he needed his struts and transmission upgraded, as well. And, heck, let's give him some flaming pipes to scare the kiddies!
Crate was drybrushed to look moldy, Lucifer has a combo of airbrush, drybrush, and washes. The flames are heated, stretched and twisted clear sprue pieces, coated in clear yellow and red.
Thanks for lookin!

Thanks! I found a WIP pic. Shows where I cut the lid and glued in a plate for Satan to sit on and appear to be popping thru the lid, rather than mounted on it. Here's some pics of a box stock version for comparison (What, you don't have two of something on the shelf?)
