Ceaser_Salad

If I had a 2021 Challenger and a couple hundred thousand dollars, I would mod it like that

Nice colour! Smooth finish too. Is it just me or are the badges on the back a little too thick... Otherwise, great!

Ok but this isn't too bad

How did this topic die?? Its been a month since anyone posted... oh wait, that's me. Well lets spark this up again: Fave paintjob (I know its not a car but I really like how it came out). I mean Spit with American Desert Camo? I like.

This car reminds me of the "modern firebird" People using body kits to make their cars into older muscle just turns out... badly. Take the daytona for instance: Modern Muscle is not particularly interesting to begin with. But trying to turn it into the original? YEUGH

Ah yes join the ranks. Welcome! This place is super positive and always a good experience to post or just read here. Enjoy your stay

How about an obituary section.... for the people on this forum that aren't dead. And its just preemptive! ?

I saw a chevy just like that red one at Sobeys the other day. Pretty sweet rides!

Ceaser_Salad or similar variations like Ceaser_Sa1ad123 has been my username for things because of my birthday. 15 of March is the date that Julius Caesar was assasinated. So Caesar salad. I spell it wrong on purpose those, I like the look of the easer better than aesar.

Yeah I get that a lot of kids have things to do. And it really is a problem (I feel like it has increased) of kids having no time of their own. My busiest year of high school was grade 10. I was a senior position in Air Cadets (I miss cadets), had two jobs at one point, went to school on the mainland when I lived on an island (which of itself took and hour and a half to get to) add on school work and I was also helping raise the chickens then general medical appointments and therapies. But for normal kids who were allowed to do sports, they would have even MORE on their hands. I get that kids are busy, and I hate that they are so filled with other things that they don't get to live a life. I see so many people my age so devoid of character because they ARE their activities (most of which are not by choice). But yes, your point of the cost being static is correct. I just majorly fluffed up a kit. Melted the entire front end, stupid mistake with a heater. Anyway, I have to now pay for a new kit to get the body to do it again. That (including a paint I bought just for this kit) is 50Cad for original kit, 18 for the paint (automotive paint yay) now a new kit for about 30cad. 98 cad for 1 kit, versus $60 for endless fun is a really REALLY easy choice. I had a friend tell me to open my eyes a bit, I was complaining about my generations addiction to the internet. She said that there is far more cheaper things to do on the internet. Video games, 3d rendering, photoshop art, video making, all sorts of things that are way cheaper, AND are creative that you can do while not going anywhere. I do apologize to @Reegs . I wanted to snap at you for being ignorant, but I am the ignorant one here. I have no right to be talking about a subject I really don't know anything about. You are correct. Truce? haha But returning to the topic at hand. I guess the only reason I got into modelling is that I am not like my compatriots of age. I can't do sports, my family only had 1 computer among us when I was growing up so video games were not a thing. I don't have a fancy smart phone. Maybe my generation just doesn't need modelling. They get the experience of cars more visually in games. Sad to say, but if the generation above mine is the last to appreciate models, I think we can see where this community is heading. Sorry for the rant. Modelling is burning me out right now, I am seeing a bit of a different side. I am also going to be a real adult soon so I really ought to stop referring to myself as a kid and see some form of reality.

I do. I would buy another kit but then I would have an entire chassis and engine and all for nothing... I don't like having extra kits and such. I like to build what I buy

Thanks! That is the 1/24 1971 Plymouth Cuda by revell. I put a wanted ad in the classifieds already

I cannot... I tried. But I am looking for a new body. At least now I know that orange really needs a white base, not a light gray. Every cloud has a silver lining as they say

That would be hard, as it is a plymouth XD But I had considered that. Not really my cup of tea though

Yep. Needless to say, I need a new body.

What irked me today?? THIS:

Here is my paint job. Have a little bit to fix on the bat symbol, but I am really happy with the look of it so far. Again, looking at the wheels from the kit, they look too small even if it wasn't a batmobile. I like that this car could be driven to stop crime or to the annual Justice League Charity Gala.

Good to know, Thanks! Thank you, I try to be a little different Thank you Please come again XD

It's bat tech, yes. But because I couldn't stop thinking of Batman gassing himself with his own car, I turned the headers around

Very impressive fix!

Man, I have no idea I may do some routing to put the exhaust out... the bottom?? I don't know yet, have to see what has room. I had some side pipes somewhere, but cannot find them. If I find them, its out the side

You have a great eye. That is almost correct. 1/72 b25

Well thats.. different.

Hi again... I post way too much stuff, I am sorry for that. BUT I think this is a build that will actually be interesting to people, unlike my sci fi stuff which no one looks at. I had this kit, didn't like it, thought it was ugly and put it up for trade. But I was staring at the headlights and thought, "yknow that could be a cool batmobile". Soo... But then I thought... "it's missing something... oh yeah a stupidly oversized jet engine in the back". So I whipped this up. I want to paint the bat symbol on the hood in maybe a grey on the gloss black or maybe I will just leave the vinyl mask on after painting to raise the symbol off the hood a bit. Also the kit wheels and tires are so tiny... I need something more buff and off road ready. Thanks for looking, if you have any wheel/tires that would be good for this, let me know.
