new unit sculp/advise needed

Hi all, I was hoping the community could help me with lots of questions. I've been inspired enough by Rivetwars to attempt my first ever mini sculpts from scratch, I've got the ideas but not the experience. (1) If I'm sculpting a rivet from scratch, because of the cylinder shape, would I be better making it all in one go/layers from solid green stuff, or find a small cylinder to use as a base and coat that. (2) Bit embarresed, but how do you get the text on these posts to start a new line, nobody likes these blocks of text and return etc seem to do diddly. I've just started making a robust but classically shaped flatbed truck that can take 4 infantry/heroes onto the front,-first time I've used plasticard also. I'm thinking that it should have movement 3 to make it useful, maybe rapid assault with no attacks-basically moving troops in the shooting phase. I was thinking that being open topped, all mounted troops would be able to fire from the bed, but with only one dice (being bounced around effects their aim) Then they can only dismount from the back or sides. Any feedback of these ideas would be great. I was considering a turret for it but I think either none or riffles on the hood that can only shoot directly forward to clear the way for the troops. Basically I don't want it to be too powerful once occupied-there are things like the Ostrich for that. Was also thinking as Ted had considered in another thread that the infantry get a chance to bail-out if the vehicle is destroyed. Can't work out what the cost etc should be for it though, love to know what you guys all think

Is the rivet you want to create similar to on of the current ones? I would say create a mold and then cast with greenstuff, after that you can then add remove as needed.

Should be able to just press enter after the line to create a new one, maybe two returns? If you are in html mode then might need to put a </br>

The transport truck is an intresting issue, I lean towards transport two if its a vehicle, or 4 if one is driver, two in back (cannot shoot) and one in front passenger can shoot.
