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.

This is the last build finished in 2023. 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.
