Topics I've Started

69 Dodge Daytona

09 April 2013 - 03:30 PM

Well I picked up this pro-modeler Daytona not too long ago and I decided to build it as a mild custom. Right now I'm just doing some basic clean up and prep before paint. Plans are a gloss black body with a semigloss wing and tail stripe. I am unsure on the interior color as of yet. Maybe red or black but we shall see as the project progresses.

 

I am using a lot of the optional racing parts in the pro-modeler issue but it will still be a street car when finished.

On this build I have used plastikote primer for the first time and it is some very good stuff. I will defiantly use a lot more on future projects.

Just started this one since it's been sitting around awhile and I wanted a quick build. All box stock. 

 

chassis painted, needs some more weathering and detailing.

I left the interior in the molded gray and black washed it, I will dull coat it here soon.

and some color on the cab/bed. Still needs clear.

I'm not sure once the truck is painted should I use this tailgate sticker or not? I like a clean look but I kinda think the sticker will set the blue off, we'll see.

Gmc plow truck finished

20 February 2013 - 05:09 PM

I finished this one a couple of days ago. Pretty much box stock except for the added rust holes, roof light, stock air cleaner, and modified CB antenna. I also added some chain on the front of the plow. The missing turn single didn't come out as well as I wanted but overall it was a Pretty good build and I can't wait to build another as a nice truck. I also should have weathered the chain also but it was already glued on.

ROG 1/16 bug

Well I started this a little bit ago but never posted it. This is my first big scale kit ever and so far I'm liking it. I couldn't leave it stock so I found some tires, modified the suspension and this is where it sits now.

The rear wheels I increased the diameter because they were too small for the lips. They need a little more work but they fit alot better.

and what I'm thinking for colors. Off white for the wheels and sides of the car, and rootbeer for the rest of the body.
