Model Brain Posted January 5, 2015 Author Share Posted January 5, 2015 Thanks Jamie, Thank you Bruce, thanks Carl, And thanks Miles, nice profile pic by the way, " ok I changed my mind shoot this son of a ***** " Hey Brayden, I like the idea of your's, If you go back to the first photo I posted you'll see the "Mad" decals, the paint needs to fit that theme. like red white and blue, Honestly I think white is all i'm doing for paint, I've spent soooo much time with this body, I feel like I sleep with it lol, Decals are going all over this puppy, I think you'll all dig it!.

Model Brain Posted February 3, 2015 Author Share Posted February 3, 2015 (edited) Finished update: It was close to one year in the making, But I am happy with the finish, it's a cheeky van, straight from my head, and creative Mad decals and some monkeys, and it all sounded good to me at the time, well here she is in all her glory, I know basic white paint was a waist of space, the wheels offset bug me, but over all-l I am Happy! lifes ups and downs don't stand a chane with the great hobby! I love every minute I'm at the workbench! And remember to vote MAd Edited February 3, 2015 by Model Brain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know you're feeling well enough to do this project this well! Thank you Steve It's been great therapy for me I am feeling very fortunate for the few windows of good health i've had to keep at it. Big Thanks to Jamie and Brayden, Mark, Troy. Carl And everyone else for the well wishes and encouragement, Myself like many members love the help, all the tip's and trick's I'm learning, seeing all your build's and Making friends, Making deals and donations. I love this hobby and i gift as many models as i can to friends and nephews. I finally got my 12 year old nephew to sit down and do the snap tight 57 chevy i got him for Christmas. Good times! And some of you might wonder what happened to the trailer, Well I decided to make it pretty and match another van project - passing on doing the Mad humor to it annnnnddddddd it's long enough! Thanks again members, and a huge thanks to MCM. Jonathan Here are a few shots of the future van and trailer combo, But it's not next...
