RENEGADE finished...

posted by roman, jarhead, kong


I hope everyone remembers the MAD MAX CAR COMPETITION Massive Voodoo is running for you at the moment. If not here is the reminder :)

It's been a while since the plan of this contest appeared in my little brain - don't you worry, there is still plenty of time even there are already the first entries dropping in like the long missed rain, who lost all ambitions to give water to the desert waste earth. I can tell you it is a hard life out there in the post-apocalyptic deserts and i finally finished the RENEGADE, my dream car of this dark future, with whom i want to drive to the smaller colonys for playing dice with the town folk to earn some coin and carottes. The Renegade is my best friend since the big explosions that did thrill the planet several centuries ago. Time - no one really knows about it, all hurry and hectic has been lost in the moment where the bombs did fall and the clocks stopped ticking. Even there have been many great achievements of humanity being lost in the aftermath and the dark days of looting and uncivilized behavior - in the end somehow this world is still beautiful. It took hundreds of tons of nuclear explosives to make people realize what life is really about. Sure there are still those with a slow brain, i mean those who want to rob others or do them harm, but there are not many and in every heart slumbers a hero who can help his fellow people if they are in danger. I can remember good old Lei, who completly drove back a bunch of Outlaws on his own, only with these Kong Fu skills he found in a book. Books are rare now and the wisdom within is worth more than one lifetime of searching. The people have learned to make cars drive not from gas, they use urine instead and so mostly everyone exhibits a car, or something that is build from million parts won in dice games and build together to something that can drive with urine. At least there is enough to drink around so we all have enough urine. The Renegade and I really have many stories to tell, but at this point this story is over and here is the RENEGADE - the first prize to be won in the MAD MAX CAR COMPETION, for the greatest car coming up from your imagination and execution - i hope you like him, click to enlarge:

Soon I will hopefully find the time to announce the information about the first prize of this competition ready to be won by you all around the places where the comp has been announced earlier. If you want to help me - do it too and spread the word for a big gallery of such dream cars as i don't have much time these days - a painting class is straight ahead at the weekend and i got tons of real life things to attend to at the moment. Thanks in advance. Don't forget to check out the rules and other prizes!

Hope you like him, drop a comment if you do or post whatever you think but most important prepare your own Mad Max Dream Car and get the chance to make the RENEGADE yours at home - i would say this is a real special price to be won, isn't it? Please keep the questions around the contest in the rules via comment. All entries will be shown after the competition, but... nah, check out the rules, there is everything explained from A to Y (i for sure did forget Z in there). The Renegade also drives with urine over on the big voting page, it doesn't matter if your tank is full or empty, you are always invited to follow the link.

Now it is time for me to sleep and dream of dusty roads and the stars behind the grey clouds :)
Good Night and keep on happy painting!
Best Regards
Roman
