1 bad55 stan Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 It doesn't look like the normal ModelHaus quality. (?) It has been painted 4x before,the last was with 2k which i had to strip back,that is why its a bit rough... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tubbs Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 nice job on it all! really moving along on it. nice detail on the motor. will be a really interesting build when finished. just a side note, I think with that color, it would really set it off if you painted the roof white. just a thought.
