I call it THE TURBINATOR. It's a Jo-Han snap kit. I painted the body with a Paint Huffer Metal Flake Silver Surfer color with a white base. The molded on chrome trim is painted with a Molotow Liquid Chrome marker. The vinyl top is painted with a Flat Black acrylic craft paint and applied with a paint brush. The interior is painted Gloss Black to give it a leather look and detailed with a Molotow Liquid Chrome marker. The undercarriage is also painted with a Flat Black acrylic craft paint and detailed with a Molotow Liquid Chrome marker. The original steering wheel is swapped out for a parts box steering wheel to go along with the street machine look. The wheels and tires are 3D printed and painted with a paint brush and detailed with a Molotow Liquid Chrome marker. The license plates are one of my custom designs. I accidentally broke the hood ornament off so instead of trying to fix it I covered up the break with Molotow Liquid Chrome. I used a custom rendering I found on Instagram as my reference for this one. This build was so easy to do it took me almost 24 hours to complete it.

Nope. Just a regular person figure I found online. Figured it would go good with the truck and the Pitbulls go good with the figure.

Last build finished in 2024. It's a Lindberg 1948 Lincoln Continental Convertible kit. I call it MADEA. It's painted with a Tropical Glitz Candy Apple Red over a Paint Huffer Metal Flake Silver Surfer base coat. The primer I used was Rust-Oleum Automotive Flat Grey primer and the clear coat is Rust-Oleum Gloss Clear Lacquer. The bodywork was done with super glue to piece the body together, then liquid styrene to seal up the gaps and smoothed out, and finally some Bondo glazing putty to fill in and imperfections and sanded smooth. The interior is painted a Flat Light Tan acrylic craft paint done using a paint brush. The dashboard was chrome plated but I didn't want to completely strip it because I wanted the chrome around the gauges to stay so I dry brushed a nice Woodgrain effect on it and wiped off the spots that I wanted chrome. Then I added some gloss black acrylic craft paint on the small detail spots like the air conditioning knobs and the gauges. I also used that same black paint on the foot pedals. The Dead Presidents Sacramento car club plaque I designed from a picture of a real plaque and 3D printed it in 1/24 scale. The steering wheel is also 3D printed and both it and the plaque are airbrushed with some SMS Hyperchrome Cold Tone paint I got from Iceman Collections and painted over a Rust-Oleum Satin Black base color. The carpet is some Tan craft felt I got from Hobby Lobby that matches the seat color perfectly. The wheels are kitbashed from two different kits but I don't know what kits those are. I modified the kit front suspension using a candle lighter and bending it until it sat as low as possible without cutting anything. I did the same thing with the rear suspension but I also cut out part of the underside above the rear axle so that I could lower the back end as low as possible. I painted the underside of the car with Rust-Oleum Satin Black but used a Gloss Clear coat over it. The engine is box stock and was all chrome plated already. The radiator got painted with the same chrome paint as the suspension and interior detail parts. The kit battery was swapped out for a 3D printed Optima battery that I painted by hand. The Fishtail exhaust tip is 3D printed and also painted Hyperchrome and was designed by Nahuel Customs on Instagram. The James Hetfield figure was designed by Ronnie Yonk on Instagram and is 3D printed in 1/24 in one piece rather than multiple pieces and then hand painted. This Lincoln definitely, in my opinion, looks like the kind of car that James Hetfield would own.

I named it RAMMSTEIN. It's painted with a Krylon Gloss Navy Blue color. The interior color is a Rust-Oleum Gloss Ivory color. The shifter knob is a 3D printed Mad Max Fury Road skull mounted on a paperclip. The floor mats are custom designed by me and printed out on glossy photo paper. The items in the bed are 3D printed. Those items are a Coleman cooler, a roll of duck tape, a cross tire iron, and a gas can. The tailgate net is made of woven Grey ribbon I got from Hobby Lobby and mounted on each side with paperclips The PlayStation Portable on the seat is 3D printed and the screen picture is printed out on some plain copy paper. The image is a Need For Speed game screenshot. The engine is box stock and painted a flat light orange color. The wheels are from JPS Custom Wheels on Instagram. I got them plain and I painted with Molotow Liquid Chrome. The tires came cast in rubber. I had to add lifting blocks to the rear leaf springs in order to get it to sit level otherwise it would be high in the front and low in the rear. The figure and the two American Pitbulls are 3D printed and painted by hand. This is one of my older builds so the paint isn't exactly perfect.

I call it SEXUAL CHOCOLATE after the Paint Huffer Metal Flake color I used of the same name. The wheels are custom 3D printed Vellano wheels with modified Z Force Model Works tires. All the chrome trim is painted with Molotow Liquid Chrome. The suspension and engine parts are also painted with Molotow Liquid Chrome. The interior is painted with a Tan acrylic craft paint. The interior door handles, window cranks, and foot pedals are 3D printed by Iceman Collections. The dashboard, steering wheel and column are painted with the same paint as the body. The carpet is a brown craft felt. The headliner is also craft felt. The floor mats are custom laser engraved on some Tan faux leather with the word KING on the driver's side and QUEEN on the passenger side. The radiator hose is made of a hollow rubber bead tubing with a piece of bead wire inside to hold its shape. The air filter and the taillights are painted with the same red acrylic craft paint. The engine block and transmission are painted with a Brown acrylic craft paint similar to the body color. The undercarriage is also painted with the same color as the body. The grill is detail with a Black acrylic craft paint.

This is a Resin Model Ranch product. I call it THE E-LIMO-NATOR. I used an AMT 1940 Ford Coupe as my donor kit. The paint is a Rust-Oleum Gloss Hunter Green. The wheels are Z Force Model Works artillery wheels with whitewall tires that I purchased from Iceman Collections. The center caps on the wheels are painted with Molotow Liquid Chrome and the rest of the wheels and tires are painted with acrylic craft paint. The engine is also purchased from Iceman Collections and is a Modern Ford 429 Big Block with ITB stacks and painted Black with Metallic Bronze accents. The body has been lowered a little and I had to modify the suspension to get it to go lower. The interior is an acrylic craft paint color called Teddy Bear Tan. The dashboard, steering wheel and column are painted the same color as the body. The carpet is some tan craft felt I got from Hobby Lobby. The windshield and the rear windows are made from scratch plastic sheets I got from a diecast car box. The running boards are painted Flat Black. The bumpers are removed to give it a street rod look. The luggage on the roof came with the resin model except for the Dark Red briefcase and the guitar case. The guitar case opens up and has a removable acoustic guitar inside. The donor kit fit very nicely on this resin model. The parts I used from the donor kit include the grill, headlights and headlight surrounds, taillights, trunk handle, radiator, front and rear suspension, front seat, dashboard, steering wheel, and steering column. The driveshaft I had to extend with a piece of a styrene rod. This is one of my best paint jobs on a resin body.

I built it to look like your average small town Iowa countryside deer hunting truck. I painted everything with a paint brush. The paint color is an Acrylic craft paint FolkArt Metallic Sheen Burgundy. The dirty look is done with a light brown acrylic craft paint and a dry brush patting technique. The bed is painted in a Flat Black to resemble a bed liner. The interior is painted in a Glossy Grey color to look like a vinyl interior. I even brought the dirty look to the interior as well as the engine. The seatbelt buckles are 3D printed along with the hunting binoculars and the hunting rifle. The seatbelt material is so grey ribbon I got from Hobby Lobby. The carpet is some grey craft felt that I dirtied up with the light brown paint. The engine bay details were all painted by hand and were all molded in. All the chrome was dirtied up the same way as the body. I wanted this truck to look like it's in good shape and just needs a car wash. It's a box stock build.

I call this build MELON BOMB. I built it as a Watermelon Farm truck. This is a Revell kit and I was very impressed with how well it went together. The paint is a Rust-Oleum Gloss Apple Green over a Rust-Oleum Flat White primer with a Rust-Oleum Gloss Clear Lacquer over the top. The decals on the doors are custom made from a picture I found on Google and printed out using an inkjet printer on some clear label sticker paper. The decal is also cleared over. The wood bed and rails are real wood Popsicle sticks with a real Golden Oak wood stain painted on. I wanted the rails to have a little waterfall look to them so I very carefully cut one corner off each Popsicle stick and sanded them smooth to get the rounded shape. The chrome trim in the bed is some styrene rods I got from Hobby Lobby and painted with Molotow Liquid Chrome. The lettering on the bed rails are painted on using a custom stencil I cut out on a Silhouette vinyl cutting machine and painted with some red acrylic craft paint and a round paint sponge I got from my local Dollar Tree store. The interior is painted with a Red acrylic craft paint using a paint brush and the same color I used on the body for the dashboard, door panels, steering wheel, and steering column. The seat inserts are made with some watermelon seed ribbon I found on Etsy. The same ribbon is also used on the lower section of the door panels where as the same Red paint that is used on seat is painted on the upper part of the door panels. The fuzzy dice that are hanging from the rear view mirror are 3D printed and painted to match the interior with the same green color that was used on the body for the dots. The string holding them on the mirror is some green colored embroidery thread. The carpet is Red craft felt. The seatbelt buckles are 3D printed and the seatbelts are made from some red ribbon I got from Hobby Lobby. The gauges cluster is made from a picture I found on Google and printed out on some glossy photo paper. All the silver parts of the undercarriage are painted with a silver acrylic craft paint. The engine is painted the same color as the body with the red details. The battery is a 3D printed Optima battery. The radiator hose is made from some hollow rubber bead tubing with a piece of bead wire inside to keep it in position. All the tiny red details on the engine, interior, and chrome trim are all painted by hand. The watermelons and the wooden crates are 3D printed and hand painted. The license plate on the back is one I custom designed and is printed out on some glossy photo paper. The wheels are painted the same color as the body. I tried to make this build look lightly customized but at the same time as a working farm truck that you'd see at a farmers market. This is one of my best builds and definitely one of my favorites.

Anycubic Photon M3 resin printer

I've built one of those. Here's mine. I used the Monster Garage Zimmer Log Splitter as my reference for it. And, yes, this is a scale model. It's not a 1:1 scale car.

I 3D printed the body myself. The wheels are Z Force Model Works Artillery wheels from Iceman Collections. I am going to try to print the body again due to some small flaws on the sides. But overall this is the look and stance I want. Still trying to figure out how to build an interior and colors to paint it. I might build it as a slammer with the windows blacked out.

I named this one JUNKYARD DOG. It's a resin model from Resin Model Ranch. The 1950 Chevy 3100 Pickup kit is what I used for a donor kit. I painted it a Foliage Green acrylic craft paint and weathered it with 3 different shades of brown paint applied with craft sponges. The decals are pulled from a 1965 Chevy Stepside Pickup kit. The interior is mostly scratch built. It's painted a light brown and weathered with black calligraphy ink. I modeled the interior after the Divco Milk Truck interior. The interior junk includes 3D printed Grizzly Tobacco cans, rolls of duck tape, crushed energy drink cans, a skateboard, a broken bottle, a fuel can, a pair of jumper cables, some oily rags, a bobblehead dog, two boxes of Champion Spark Plugs, a real metal greasy chain, a Coleman Cooler, a Duncan Donut box with a donut inside, a box of Kleenex with real Kleenex inside, and a melted Crunch candy bar on the dashboard. The steering wheel is salvaged from my parts box. The seat is also salvaged from my parts box. The Guage cluster is made of some jewelry necklace rings and some UV Hardening resin. The radio face is 3D printed. The windshield was scratched with an exacto knife blade to simulate a crack. I also drilled three holes in the glass to simulate bullet holes. The frame has been extended to fit the body. The driveshaft is made from scratch. The engine is weathered with black and brown calligraphy ink to make it look greasy. The engine is also plumbed and wired using rubber bead cord and bead wire. I also eliminated the bumpers. The wheels are pulled out of my parts box. I even 3D printed a person figure to go with it.

I call it THE HEAD HUNTER. Body is dented up with a candle lighter and then painted to look rusty and beat up. Headlights, turn signal lights, and taillights are painted with some calligraphy ink. The wheels and tires are 3D printed by Jaysresinwheels1948 on ebay. The rims are painted with a metallic charcoal gray color. The lift kit is from the Wild Hoss Ford Bronco kit. The transfer case is 3D printed. The front and rear axles have been extended so the wheels would fit. The u-joints on the driveshafts are 3D printed but the rest of the driveshafts are made from scratch styrene tubing. I scratched the windshield with an exacto knife blade to simulate a crack without breaking the window. The engine is box stock except for the air cleaner. That part was pulled out of my parts box. The radiator hose is made from a hollow rubber bead cord with a piece of bead wire inside so that the bead cord will hold it's shape. The interior is painted Matte Black. The carpet and headliner is black craft felt. The seat inserts are made of an American flag ribbon I found at Hobby Lobby. The shrunken head hanging from the rear view mirror is 3D printed. A piece of black embroidery thread holds it on the mirror. The stance looks like it's accelerating down a gravel road. I built a diorama display base for it using a piece of foam board and some model train scenery detail supplies I got at Hobby Lobby. The dust cloud is just some pillow stuffing I had laying around. This is one of my favorite 4X4 builds I've done.

I used the same bodies for all of them. They're basically just ideas.

That Bugatti Atlantic is one I 3D printed. I have it printed in 1/24 scale.
