  1. Bottom, the top would look like something that you'd put on a stock Camaro. The bottoms look more, er, racy?
  2. Not sure about a video but if you spray paint and it spiders- It looks like a spider, and webs out- it is too thin, and you're probably spraying too close to your subject and focusing on one spot too much. Instead of doing a one-over really heavily, give it a mist and then come back and add the layers onto it. If you spray the paint and it splatters and isn't in a consistent spot, it is too thick, you need to add thinner. What I go by is a 4:1 ratio of paint to thinner, depending on how thin the paint already is. If it pours out like water, it is thin enough, but if it is like molasses, add thinner. If you add too much thinner, you have to go light to avoid runs and drips. Happy airbrushing! Just right would be a consistent line, no splatters, spiders or runs. Get a few plastic white spoons and practice on those, eventually you'll be able to get a consistent line. Also try different PSI's on your compressor. 20-25 might work for your airbrush, or maybe 30-35 might work as well. What I go by is the thinner the paint, the higher PSI and the thicker the paint the lower the PSI.
  3. Awesome wagon!
  4. Great job. I can see it flying down the salt flats now...
  5. The wheels are perfect...
  6. So does that mean that the Mannix Cuda is the only '72 convert? Looks great Bob! It's good to have a convertible sometimes...
  7. Great job Mark! That is a really dark blue, almost black...
  8. Man, that is green!
  9. Cool!
  10. Great job on both on them. Is this one 1/12th?
  11. Great work on the window frames!
  12. Those will look nice! Did factory SS come with hood stripes? Or was that a option?
  13. It was a long day
  14. I can understand sitting at a intersection and pulling off and rolling a little, like a semi truck, but not sitting at a intersection, revving your engine, and "rolling coal yuck yuck"
  15. Kelly, try to convince him to come back to the hobby. It's a really good pass time and can be relaxing if you focus on what you're doing. Build for yourself, not others.
  16. Great job on the door hinges! As for the blower, I like the smaller one instead of the skyscraper-height blower
  17. Great model, but did you get glue on the windshield? Oh well, happens to the best on us.
  18. Alright Bernard! Great job. This'll be really cool!
