highway Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 Another beautiful build! What did you use for the rollbar padding? It looks very realistic.

Dragline Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 Just getting around to looking at this John. RIDONCULOUS! Do you have a wedge up shot? Sweet... Bob
Eric Stone Posted June 30, 2010 Posted June 30, 2010 Also, when/if you explain the rollbar padding, can you also explain how you made the lettering on the rear tires look so realistic?
John Teresi Posted June 30, 2010 Author Posted June 30, 2010 Also, when/if you explain the rollbar padding, can you also explain how you made the lettering on the rear tires look so realistic? Eric.....the padding is electrical shrink wrap tubbing from the computer store.......they come in 3 ft lengths and 2 different diameters...... they cost around $2.00 each.......I use one size for 1/24 scale and the other for 1/16 scale........you slip it over the roll bar and heat it with a lighter and it shrinks around the roll bar........as far as the weathering on the tires I have shared many times on some of my post.......if you can look back on some of my post you should find it.....if not P.M. me and I will explain how .......thank`s ,John
bsoder Posted June 30, 2010 Posted June 30, 2010 Man that is way coool..a couple of those shots might have stumped me on Harry's RorM !
