hmm sharp !! looks great

looks great !!

very very nice !

love this one !!

nice ! , nice red also ! i would not do flames .. imo it doesnt fit the car .. mabe those crosses / skulls on the doors , in a way it feels like that would fit the looks and feel of the car

nice !

yes i knw the xm > same suspension as the xantia .. so that xm is there in the usa ? i.

thnx .. it was done in a jiffy but fun to do .. will work great for taking pics of models or as a add in the garage .. at first i wanted to put it in the abandoned charger dio i'm doing atm (dio section) but that looked to fake

lately the internet is flooded with pics of kids rods .. a lot of rat rods for kids home made by their fathers , very cool and very creative ... now i have seen motorized versions , pedal versions and push versions .. i made a non pedal / powered version to be pushed with a bar ... i came to this when i found like a suprize egg car .. looked like a vintage pedal car and i had a 32 ford rod from hotwheels .. and a 1/25 go cart ... so the idea was born and i merged some parts together , bit of rust and ome chrome ...and voila a fun quick thing ... all the selected parts together this was the result > a rat rod with pushbar , fake shifter and i made a ssmall nose cone for it the go kart wheels needed a lot of work , hard cast plastic with a large seem , i sanded that off in the drill and painted the tres matt black

that dolly is stunning !!

thnx phil

looking great !!!

so i gave all the puddles a wash with green , that reall worked well .. looks great , also added a muffler with drilled open pipe .. i cracked the pipe a bit so it looks busted on te right i will continue the fence .. if i would have placed the charger more in the front i could have build a shed ... maybe i can build a small shed on the right upper corner and run the fence onto that...

changed some stuff , removed the oil sign .. and barb wire and went for a wood fence , gave it a first wash

i dig this shot

added 2 signs i made a while back .. to add some color and see how that turned out , next week i will buy a new printer .. this one broke down .. so i had to use these for now .. old for sale sign oil sign , maybe change this for a more vintage serious oil sign later i found a 1/25 sink in a small bag in a modelstore a while back .. and bought that .. now i weathered it with some green and put a waterstop in it .. then a ford hubcap and a test to make cheap water .. did a small layer of superglue and then filled it with velpon glue , real cheap clear glue , untill now it still clear and not sinking in .. could be a cheap way to create water in stuff ... that crystal clear i used on the puddles is expensive , small bottle and wont apply in one thick layer

nice !

awsome !!

stunning !

looking great !! i have seen these irl many times ... in my childhood i have spend a lot of summer in france (rural france) my grandmother was french ... i have had 2 citroen xantia's .. they where not allowed in the us because they have hydro suspension ... funny if you think about it ... lowriders ?? hahaha but a factory hydro suspenssion was banned there was actually a decal under the hood stating it you could actually set it up real high and real low ... not drivable then .. the high setting was for obstacles .. oh and you could fill up the trunk with heavy stuff and it would keep the back up , pump it more to keep it level one thing is for sure that was so comfateble !!

hmmm looking great !

i like it .. the h scale stuff looks great and can be bought so thats a plus

nice job ...looks very similair i do think for sand on the tyres a pigment powder would work so much better .. that could get in the creeses of the thread and not be shiny ..

great stuff again !
