I agree with ya Doc, I paint it all, even on some military stuff I've been monkeying with

Man, some funny stuff here!!!

AWESOME!!!!!!!!! Great photos too

Thanks Doc!! The one thing I hate about doing resin cars is cutting and installing the " glass " I see the windshield on the Camaro is sticking up a bit Clay Kemp & others make it look so easy!! LOL!!!

couple of recent bodies, comments welcomed

Jim has got some AWESOME wheels!!!!!!! I've got several sets. Right now I'm using a set under my slot car bodies for pics.

I forgot...that blower scoop was sculpted from Aves epoxy-sculpt

Hey Joseph, do you degas smooth - on rubber?

Thanks guys, Gregg, I can't wait man!! Joseph, I've read alot about Smooth-on through Amazing Figure Modeler magazine, that does appeal to me, tho I'm not gonna give up on Alumilite...maybe I've got some cruddy stuff, it's not 6 months old yet? I'm not too worried about the rubber, I like both the Alumilite & Micro Mark stuff. Man Gregg, now I'm really chomping at the bit for the next issue!!!! LOL!!!!! Jacen, thanks fer that tip, never thought about that! Here's a shot of that hood & scoop that was done with Micro Mark's resin, my avatar to the left...the blower scoop was sculpted & cast - again, M. Mark, here's a better shot Thanks again for your info guys !! Sixx

Hey thanks Jacen! I've got the degasser & pressure pot, that's how I got a decent cast one the hood. I find that the Alumilite just sets way too quick, had it set on me in less than 30 seconds while I was mixing it! Couple of times I did get a good one out of it, just too much $$$ to have it do that. I do like their RTV tho. Sixx

In your honest opinions, what is the best type/brand of resin & rtv rubber out there? I've been sculpting some things and would like to cast them. I have done a few castings of small things, ie; a hood with scoop for a new Challenger, some tires & wheels, so I get the gist of casting, just looking for some good resin & rubber. I've used Alumilte & Micro Marc's stuff, not too happy with the Alumilite, M.M. is okay but...

Wow! Thanks for the info everyone! I totally forgot about RMR's cat! That is a great starting point.

Man, I'll ship anywhere. I just sent some parts I didn't need to someone in Romania, maybe it was Dracula? LOL!!! Isn't Romania the " new " Transylvania?? Eh, that was dorky!! oh well

I thought I'd ask you truck model builders...might be a silly question, but where can I get drawings and scale size of heavy equipment, you know, length of parts; the boom, bucket, etc...I'd like to scratch-build some equip. someday, heck, even something like a skid steer or mini-excavator. I did a google search-nothing usable, or didn't put in right key-words. Is there anyone there that could push me in the right direction? Thanks for any help in advance! Sixx

MMMMMM punkin pie....heck yeah, I'll have sum!! yep, I'm a weirdo!! LOL!!!

MAN Tyrone, I just went through your thread again...WOW!!! I just don't know what else to say. How 'bout this...That's Freakin AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I dig that new Merc...and you did an AWESOME job!!!!

Harry, I'd bet it's them darn " gorillas" in the Chi-town post office. Either that or somebodys readin yer mag before you! Oh yeah, did I say how much I dig this magazine?! LOL!!! Scott Colmer...hope thats right...did an amazing job on that beehive filter!!

REALLY ? ! Woohoo!!! now I can go fix the leaky roof on my garage!

Speaking of hoards...I've got some in the works for ya!!! Serious, I got several I've been sculpting and getting geared up for casting!! This is all thanks to the good Doctor ( Cranky ) or is that bad Doctor...LOL!!!!! Doc got me going on these bad boys, & so did watching The Walking Dead!!!!! Sixx

Man, that sucks. Kenny is such a cool guy, Met him at Rte. 66 in Joliet ,Illinois...the first year it opened ( used to live less than 2 miles from there!!?? ) He was the only one to take time and talk to me and my younger brother...John Force...NOT...ooooh, Shelly Anderson was really cool too!!
