Custom Alternative to the Super7 Party Wagon

 Let me preface this with a couple of Warnings:

I am a mega crappy Customizer. I don't have a steady hand for painting, cutting, or sculpting. You probably are a much better customizer than I am. Even following standard procedure of washing, drying, sanding, priming, painting, sealing, I fucked up MANY times.

This is a Work In Progress and I don't know If I'll be able to finish it before 2023. I need to make a replacement Hood, make a Hood Ornament to hide a WWE logo. 

Also, it's kinda hard to be a customizer when you have no time, no skills, and no money...

Without further ado here's the Shellbulance:

The hood is literally a piece of clear plastic painted and held with tape. It's a placeholder until I can obtain or make something better.
I kinda want to get a manhole cover to cover the WWE Logo. Yes, the button that fires the gurney is painted with a Turtle smirk as a nod to the original paerty wagon.

The reason that the interior isn't painted yet, is that the slambulance is a pain in the ass to disassemble. I couldn't locate two screws that made the cabin pop off completely. Guess I'll have to captain paintbrush it and it's a bit awkward since I can't remove the seats.

Oh, I wish the turtles had foot holes.

I haven't finished decorating the right side since it has the Breakaway piece. The passenger door has the classic foot stinks but with a Google Translate twist, I'm not sure if it's 100% accurate... I also drew a smelly foot soldier for those of us who cannot read Japanese.

The right Fender has a couple of mouser killcounts... I got the inspiration from pilot killcounts. Each Mouser tag= 100 IRL Mousers.
The black stripe is a colorshift stripe. Well, it was before the sealer. I'LL HAVE to go over it so it recovers the effect. It goes from black to gold.

Here you can see the back. I need to retouch the door with the Metallic Green.  The License Plate is an obvious nod to the Turtles. The I❤NY is obvious. Pizza Time is not just a nod to their love of Pizza. It's also a nod to the TMNT games... NOT SPIDER-MAN!!
The Footbusters is a nod to the Other New Yorkers that bust things...
The Channel 6 Logo is because they're fans, OK?

Inside, I've padded the walls with Foam sheets, because in case of bumpy rides, it's better for the passengers in the back to bump to sonething soft...

The left side has the Kanji for Turtle, and the 4 bous tagged their initial.
A simple COWABUNGA fills tge empty space.

The Door has the TMNT branding because TOYS... just look at the glider for crying out loud!

I wish I was better skilled and could 3D print stuff, because I would've made a new hood, added other touches to personalize it better.
