Darren B Posted September 11, 2015 Author Share Posted September 11, 2015 My idea for the 32 paint work but in satin and some weathering on top of it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slusher Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Are you doing the Egyptian writing by hand?  Looks great  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren B Posted September 11, 2015 Author Share Posted September 11, 2015 Are you doing the Egyptian writing by hand?  Looks great  yes its a gel pen from hobby lobby and out of about 8 gel pens that one is the only one that would continue to draw on the surface. Trying to get a steadier hand at it,. decals would probably look better but do not have a great printer right now, plus had envisioned it to look this way and the gold on black is really cool looking. Im surprised there are not a good source for aftermarket decals in an Egyptian theme after all of these years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darren B Posted September 15, 2015 Author Share Posted September 15, 2015 my first installed prop for the hood... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blunc Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 you could put a small magnet inside the cowl next to the hinge wire (the hinge wire doesn't really need to touch the magnet if it's strong enough, and assuming the hinge wire is ferrous)...this would eliminate the need for a hood prop.

Darren B Posted September 20, 2015 Author Share Posted September 20, 2015 Decided to carry the pyramid theme over to the shifter and a knew knob....also thinking of a scarab type shield for the doors, kinda like the symbol for a tomb raider!!!

gatorincebu Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015     Darren,           This is just sick!! On the shifter, are you going to put some gems in for the eyes?
