yes i think this tone look way better , i made a old magnlene ford oil sign and layed it on the wood floor and that popped like crazy (blue)

nice job !!

thnx , but it was still not what i was after .. things can go your way sometimes and just now that happened , i wanted like the aged brown wood look ... but no mather what i put on it still was like the red-ih from the woodstain .. i dented the floor ome more and then jut took pitch black pigment powder from vallejo ... and put a masie layer all over the whole floor .. started brushing it in with a large soft brush , tapoed off the layer outside and did some buffing with a soft cloth ... it came out exactly how i wanted it to look , and no that was no science ...just luck outdoor shot

some of my shiners ...mot of my work is weathered so these are special hahaha 69 charger the first time i buid it > its weathered now 68 charger glu-bom into gasser cobra mercury

thnx ! sanded back the blues and all over the floor , to leave a hint of that color .. like unce they put those boards on , sanded the floor and stained not doing a real good job sanding ... after sanding gave it a few washes with some browns it will get some oil stains later , maybe even a flipped over oil can with oil leaking out ? paint bucket fallen ? .. not sure yet ... hard part will be what to do on the wood on the walls ...since the floor is like this ....i dont want a too uniform colorpalette ... maybe white painted weathered and slightly greyed ... this got me thinking this is actually a great photobox size for models , would be cool to one like this all wood and just paint everything white , just for taking pictures of model

awsome ! again you amaze us !

thnx joe lol from this point i winged it , floor wa nice after sanding down but too dark for the light colored nova , it demanded all attention and on pictures looked even darker and the nova even lighter after the first sand and some sigarette ashes (the black ash) rubbed all over like said nice but to dark first i painted ome boards blue-ish ... i saw a floor recently with a few colored boards and i liked that , i figured some color like the car in the floor might be cool ? still was not what i was after at this point i thought i would have been better off if i just greyed the wood instead of doing the woodstain but i kept at it and gave the whole floor some washes with grey wash from lavado already looks way friendlyer color wise in comparison to the light car i can always sand it back down and just grey the wood .. what do you guys think of this effect atm ??

thnx kerry ! after some boring work , cutting , gluing etc ..finished the floor !! all the boards got holes in them (2 dif sizes) then i made the largest holes black inside and then stained the wood with red gloss woodstain ... this will later on be sanded back and i will work with dif. tones .. but this stain brings all the cracks and seems to life ... dents and inperfections i sanded in boards not level ...

thnx , i know but tbh i dd some boards before and when i will sand them and they are closer together it becomes too nice .. this will be a very old weathered building (inside) nd i have to try and make it look a bit rough ..making the joints a tad wider will actually come out better later on ... also i want to paint it all black so inside the creases there is black , then sande the floor leaving the black in the creases and at the same time have some black in the wood .. when its bare again i want to make the remaining top layer like greyed wood ...i'm even thinking about making some floorboard a tad loos so a corner will come up a bit and looking at very old barn picturess and tuff like that i saw some scary looking boards and hudge gaps between them on my garage dio i did a wooden workbench top that was tight together .. sanded and that looked great .. on the floor again i'm thinking this is the way to go to get that old lived look , like hundred year old wood that maybe shrunk in the years ?? and last the coffee stirrers i have / use are all qrooked and not straight o on the lenght seems there is a lot of difference in gap size

rough start on the wooden floor , i'm keeping the seems all not exactly aligned every next row .. so it does not look too clean , all coffee stir sticks i got fed up so i ordered my grease monkey to continue he went out to get more floorboards with the chevy ... he then relialized he could use the flat bed to haul more .. this reminds ME that i need to continue the flat bed , thats nowhere neir finished now later i will put small nails in the wood and then grey / age it and rut the nails a bit , lots of work .. for the walls i first need to get some wood for the beams ..

thnx guys ! and mike i know its a lid with metal clamps over it .. i just didnt like it and it already was mounted decided to make it like this , like they put a different style reservoir in it with a single cap ..cant really do anything to it at this point

love it !! grroovvvyyy !!

start of a diorama , lightweight with thin mdf wood and a bend plastic gutter , walls will be thin and this way i can get rid of some of my junk materials hahaha this will become either a barn or a old style workshop .. both would be build using real wood

nice idea , i already tried some cloth stuffed in there but i just like the look of the open manifold maybe leave it visible like this it should need a complete rebuild if it wa to be retored anyway ??

thnx austin !! i did manage to place the hood , some cloth inserts as heat protection thats sagging a bit ...now i need to get some inspiration for a small dio ...barn or workshop ....not sure yet ..

triple singles ..cant go wrong

wild !!

sick !!!!! love it

superbbbbb

pffft like always soo clean , soo tight and that chrome ...just love it !!!!!

looking superb !!

well that master cilinder and brake fluid reservoir look killer !! love it

nice ! going to look sick

thnx randy !!!! thnx !! maybe this sounds weird but i seldom have a fixed way .. on this nova i used a lot of vallejo pigment rust oxide the very very yellow-ish / light powder to get not a rusted look but a stood there for years all dusted look ... the body actually was super simple and didnt include hairspray or salt , just painted it a sand color with a army paint rattle can , some burnt sierra over that and when dry and hard sprayed it blue and when it wa 80% dry wet sanded it under the kitchen sink tab getting this result .. revell ?? i dont really know i'm in holland / the netherlands and i bought this second hand with nothing put together but all parts painted thnx ps this one is sitting idle on the bench due to my vacation ...i will continue this soon and make a cool base plate / small dio around it

now thats cool !!!!
