“This 1/16 scale 1931 Ford delivery van is the result of me letting my crazy friends Alex and Shane decide what to do with it,” Tyler says. “Basically, it’s an armored post-apocalypse mail-delivery van with a side mural depicting the character Derpy Hooves from the cartoon show My Little Pony.” Tyler hand-painted the Minicraft model with varying layers of Model Master black and rust acrylics along with weathering and corroded holes made with a rotary tool.
