crazyrichard Posted August 28, 2014 Author Share Posted August 28, 2014 thnx the clear coat was dry so i just cut the circle out .. and stuck it on the wall with some spit (letterly) haha just to see , so its not fixed yet ...maybe i will make a spacer so its a bit of the wall and some shade will show on the wall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyrichard Posted August 28, 2014 Author Share Posted August 28, 2014 (edited) the sign is on with a spacer now , glued so its done Edited August 28, 2014 by crazyrichard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyrichard Posted August 28, 2014 Author Share Posted August 28, 2014 whell i got the idea to do a piece of tile floor and try to blend it into the painted floor , so i opened photoshop and designed my own floor in diamond chekers with the shop logo ... now this is just regulair a4 paper , in the top corner you can already see how nice it blends into the floor of the garage , when i seal this with varnish and glue it on i think it will look killer .. nobody would suspect its just regulair paper now i can also make like a partician or a wall with big windows , and a door , so its like a reception / office .. all just a testfase Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gasser59 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Oh yeah!! Was wondering when you'd get back to building another dio. Love following your thread and the flow of your imagination. Go man go!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyrichard Posted August 29, 2014 Author Share Posted August 29, 2014 thnx guys whell having loads of fun again ... the only downside of dio building is they take up a lot of space .. but whell i just love to build them , this one is my third (hotrod garage > gasstation > now this one) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyrichard Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 whell the floor is in .. now working on low partician walls ... went for low ones because that way you can still see everything , i tried high walls but that takes away to much from the windows on the side ... making the wall wide so later i can put stuff on it , maybe some old oild cans etc ... now the walls will be the same as the outer walls so ribbed panels in silver , the top of the walls will be covered with the hardwood strips i have on the walls and stained the same way , so it becomes one whole and the same theme / look .. just a rough start > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazyrichard Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 changed the floor to just a checker without the logo , easyer to put stuff in , i'm thinking 50's styled barstools , a bench , desk , coke machine .. already making a custom clock for the wall using a old watch for parts workbenches will be like steel red lockers with a wooden worktop etc ...
