  1. very nice build !!!
  2. well .. alwyas check in on your facebook to see if ... i can tell you the first time i saw your work .. i was stunned ..and a instant fan of your creations ... amazing and i cant imagine a model can look more realistic then this !! just a guy who really enjoys your work and get a lot of inspiration from stuff like this
  3. looks great
  4. thnx guys .. one thing looking back at the primer pics ... gloss white could also have been like whow
  5. say yes to the hood !!!!!!! haha looks awsome on there
  6. painted it black decided that was the best color for the style and feel of the car .. i want to do a nother one in the future more extreme modded and do that a wild color so this is the base coat of black i will polish this then it becomes smooth as glass and then do clearcoat and polish that as well .. i think then it will get a deep shine and reflection and the body will really come to life
  7. looks good "roadstered"
  8. nice job and i would ,eave the door seems , its not uncommon when a body is a bit channneled that when you open the door there is a raised floor .. also when you raise the doorline it might look weird and bulky ... suicide doors could be cool !! i would get rid of those molded hinges and keep the door flat and only put a handle at the front ... no new hinges ??
  9. looking gooood !!
  10. hmm great build !!!
  11. ooh tod sorry but no flames would be the last thing i'd do ... some are real cool but i have never been a big flame fan ... not disliking it but ...if i have a choice no flames i recently did some on the salt racer i made , that was a build from left over parts and a rebuild of an old model and there i did flames .. liked it because it added something .. but in general naahhh here is a pic. with the interiour tub on , so the floor is closed , also painted the resonaters red ... now i need to run brake lines and make exhaust brakets so it looks suspended in rubbers .. oh and later add more fuelline clamps
  12. thnx guys and carl i'm not sure .. black would look so good with the chrome and all ... but i'm still in doubt if i should paint it metallic green .... so for now i just worked on the rest and left the body in primer ...
  13. alright in my enthousiasm i ran the exhausts ...over the gastank .. so i got some comments on that .. grrrr i was bummed ... i'm going to leave them like this .. i can bend these to go left and right pass the tank and i have the spare wheel thing .. .. if i could do it over i would cut out the spare wheel buldge and then change the gastank so i would had more clearance . but well at this point i wil leave it like this i did gave the undeside a coat of matt black to make it more like a real used car .. , did the fuellines chrome , gave everything a first wash .. the middel will also get clamps on the fuelline but i can only do that when everything is assembled due to the way the interiourtub needs to be wiggeled in when fitting everything the fuelline shot on a more normal distance , looks less thick then on the previous close ups dit the inside of the pipe black and gave the pipe and edge around the hole with some mild chrome , more like a wash .. now i want to make some clapms and brakets to make it look like the exhaust is in rubebrs instead of the clamps i put around dryfit on all wheels engine (not finished)
  14. great progress going to be stunning
  15. hmmm tasty !!!!!!!!
  16. hmm nice ... liking this a lot !!
  17. ooh whouw .. stunning stuff again !!i hope he / you can keep posting here love these builds !!
  18. thnx both !! first time i did the following >> adding more detail to the undercarridge / chassis , the idea is it has to look vintage custom like its driven well .. no trailer queen .. so the overal look i want it to look clean and shiney but still maintain the vintage used feel so when the chassis is done i will paint the exhaust and lines and maybe do a mild wash , not real weathering and no rust but more a used look started on some brackets , fuelline etc hmm pretty small brackets around the fuelline haha some more brackets , not done yet where it runs through the chassis i need to make some and clean it up when these are done i will make some thinner lines for the brakes
  19. thnx guys !!! started the exhaust today only used the kit mufflers , the headers already where from my partsbox .. used some styrene tube to bend the front pipe and made a copper heatshield used real aluminum pipe on the whole rear section and sribed the ends so they looked thinner and made then so the are under the bumper , kind of stealth but still visible next i will add brackets to the exhauste made from copper .. and run fuel and brake lines and then paint the stuff
