  4. wow..nice work love the models that is other than ht`s and conv`s, great work
  5. Hi thanks for nice words, but i cant take cred for the design, I used a sketch i found in Rod & custom done by Harry Bradley later buildt by Sam Foose But i`m building it the way i think it may look good. The roof was "dropped" straight down and tilting the windshield and rear glass to match up with the roof, keeping the roof stock The wheels are some Fujimi`s from the 90`s
  6. Looks like a good plan you got there. Going to look great
  7. Hi This is a project to test my new airbrush, never used an airbrush before so wish me luck going with flames (masks from chris) and untraditional colors, copper, brown and black well, here is where the car is at the moment.
  8. Very nice work. What did you do to get a sharp line between the floorboard and frame ?
  9. Painted the roof and side molding last night. I might go with the five spoke, but with same size on all four.
  10. Hi Time for another project, a Lindberg 1961 Chevy Impala. I have painted the main color, the roof will be white along with inside of the side molding. But i can`t deside wich wheels i`m going to use. Any tip?
  11. Hi First of all, Thank you for very nice words. I don`t think i can do a tutorial on this because it`s my first ever try on weathering a vehicle But i can try to explain what i`ve done, i tried different tech`s along the way to the finished model. First i laid a basecoat of red primer and then the base color.I then applied the decals and covered the model in Tamiya flat clear. I first tried to sand the color coat in random spots on the body to try and copy the sun burned look of a vehcile left out in the dessert sun. But that didn`t work so i tried the technique with acrylics and sponge. I used different colors for this, burnt umber, sienna, black and ochre. That worked alot better i think and i did go further with the weathering using weathering kit from tamiya creating streaks and runs of rust build up over years Also covering the varius steps in flat clear to seal the finish. I did alot of searching on the net and forums of different technics I did use calks to reproduce dust both inside and outside There is possible much more to write and explain but i`m not very good at explaining what i do and my english isn`t the best either , but i`ll try to take pics of my next wheatering project. just ask if you need to know a specific thing and i`ll try to answer the best i can Thor

  16. This is great. I`m waiting for my first airbrush, a Iwata HP c Plus. One question, can you shoot regular automotive metalic paint (like PPG, DuPont) through the 0,3 nozzle or do i need a larger tip
  17. Cool Gasser Is it possible to get a chassis shot ? I love gassers
  18. hi I`m trying to get in contact with Plastruct through the contact email on their web site, but i think it gets lost in the spam jungle because i gets no answer to my email Does any one have a valid email address to the sales department ?
