  1. Now thats got an attitude!!! Nice..Now look at that hood....lose the "nostrils"......a simple section on the hood will drop the front way down... Not knowing what your Ideas on taillights...hard to call the rear, but a sheet of .020 sheet styreen rolled from the front to the rear pan would keep the smooth...but then the "pickup" bed would be lost....I think it more fits the "sled" approach filled in.
  2. I like that one Doc!!!
  3. MikeMc

    Are trucks ok?

    AGREED!!! I can't draw either way.....those are great!
  4. I have a different approach.....I am a Photographic Addict.....I examine the Photo....Even photoshopping will leave telltales.....if you know what to look for....Harry is Very Good, but the picture will talk to me. Yep...I am crazy...I build little cars and trucks!!!
  5. You callin Rom a ding ding ding????? :P
  6. Lookin fine.... I love the F1.....IMHO with the sweet rear treatment and that slammed ride, You should section the cab or chop it a bit..4-5 " Drop the hood a tad and it will be unreal.....I've sectioned and chopped one and it should be a straight cut.....
  7. Drop Jairus a PM here on the board....I bet you will get all you need from J.
  8. Sgt Clay and I were talking about it.....@3:21.....Thats Ed Sexton and Roger Harney....Doing the Pictures and Rumour is that the rat Roaster will be done in LARGE scale....look up front..looks like a 1/8th Deuce... I have the whole show on DVR.....they mention that this is how they do 1/25 scale ....BUT look at that Big Deuce kit at the end........YEAH!!!!!!
  9. Ahhhhhh Harry.....Thats from UPPER Slobovia....before the split.......
  10. DOC, Ask aroung at the big camera stores...drawers and drawers build up over the years....You might get a few metal ones from AGFA Films of old. I have them in 35mm screw on and 120/220 silde on.off .....all aluminium!!
  11. USE BIGGER LETTER'S...........
  12. No Question......Power Point was optional until Office 2007....if the cells remember correctly.......
  13. Now if we can GET tenax........Tamiya caps work well also!
  14. I agree with Harry.... A fine line of liquid mask right down the chrome, spray semi gloss over and peel off the mask...GOOD LUCK!
  15. Then switch to Ultimate or Aileens...both like elmers...but stiffer and stickier than elmers...with all of the Elmers benefits..its got some flex in it.
  16. NO DOT 4 or DOT 5 they do not work.
  17. I'd forgotten about that!!
  18. One other tip is "heat by rubbing" you actually do with some compounds...they need this step to fill in the swirls...Meguires or Novis both work well as does the Tamiya compounds on lacquers, cannot speak on enamels...Donn says they do get hard enough to polish...I'm not sayin......
  19. He has Word and not Powerpoint?? I find Word is 123 for plates and resizing to scale.
  20. When you enter them as pictures, you create "boxes"..mouse over the boxes and you can move them around...you may need major moving or just a couple of spaces
  21. I will be . using his photo tricks with my DIO under construction.... B)
  22. This is the only Photoshopped Picture!! http://www.craftsman...com/SmithMP.htm
  23. Easiest way is put them into Word, and reduce the size....it will stay sharp.I use PS cause I'm adding the letters
