[Recap] So while working on the various race car artworks (for the game cards),
I got the idea to design some new KoolWheelz models recreating some of those game cars.

These would be exclusive paper models tied directly to the game.
And they would only be for buyers of the game, available after purchase.
One of the game 'extras' available at my game store website.


- But before that, I had already decided to design some much simpler models.
Models I could actually include within the game.

In the Instruction booklet, will be two sheets with 8 models that can be scanned and reprinted.
The sheets will also be available as a PDF download (once the game is purchased) ready to print.

These are boxy, much simpler models, that a novice should have very little trouble with.
I must remember, this a card/board game for gamesters first, whether they be paper modelers or not.
I will be included detailed instructions on how to build the models, tools needed, etc.

As someone already suggested, I did think about including car cut-outs or 'standees' in the game,
but this would have added another production cost to the final game.


[the crowd quiets again]

I thought about this a lot...I'd love to share all the models with everyone,
but that kind of defeats the purpose...'Exclusive' has to stand for something.
And the simple models included with the game, as well as the Exclusives, are an incentive for buyers of the game.
So it wouldn't be fair to customers.

For now, I'd still like to share some photos of the models.
These are the simple models included with the game.
4 Funny Car style, and 4 Stocker/Gasser style cars.

Although they may look like cars you recognize, I did not go for accuracy or any definitive make or model.
In fact the 4 funnies, and 3 of the stockers, are built using the exact same boxy template.
Only the yellow gasser is a modified design.
