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.

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.

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.

I call it BLACK WIDOW. I painted it Tropical Glitz Candy Black and Candy Black Cherry over a Paint Huffer Silver Surfer. The trim is painted with SMS Hyperchrome Cold Tone airbrush paint. The interior is hand painted with acrylic craft paint using a paint brush. The raccoon tail hanging from the side mirror is a piece of a white pipe cleaner colored with a couple of Sharpie markers. The steering wheel is salvaged from my parts box. I don't know what kit it came from though. I'm assuming a 1940 Ford. The Fedora hat is 3D printed. the wheels and tires came from two separate kits. The main base for the undercarriage is painted with Flat Black acrylic craft paint. The engine is completely box stock.

I call it GOLD RUSH. It's painted with Paint Huffer Gold Rush and Gloss White with some Tropical Glitz Frostbite metal flake sprayed on top. The chrome trim is painted with SMS Hyperchrome Cold Tone airbrush paint. The Interior is painted like the body. The front bench seat is pulled from a 1955 Chevy Bel Air Sedan kit. The dashboard is from a different 1956 Chevy Bel Air kit because the original kit was missing one. The undercarriage is painted Gloss White with SMS Hyperchrome Cold Tone details. before I sprayed on the chrome I had to mask off the white using silly putty. The wheels are 3D printed and came from JaysResinWheels1948 on eBay. The tires came in two parts. The whitewall inserts and the tires which are painted with acrylic craft paint using a paint brush. The fender skirts are also 3D printed and came from 3D Scale Parts. The steering wheel I 3D printed myself and painted it with SMS Hyperchrome Cold Tone paint. The engine is box stock except for the radiator hose which is made from a piece of a hollow rubber bead cord with a wire inside so it will hold its shape. The hardest part of this build was attaching the front bumper. Other than that, it was a good kit.

I named this build ROCK STAR. it's painted entirely with a paint brush. I used four different shades of brown acrylic craft paint and then a semi-gloss black acrylic craft paint and sanded through each layer with sandpaper. The drum set and the flame electric guitar are 3D printed and hand painted to look used. The license plate I custom designed for this specific build. The wheels are Pegasus Sovereign wheels. The was kept chrome plated and painted with flat black acrylic craft paint and then the excess was wiped off with a Kleenex exposing the chrome parts I wanted to keep. The chrome trim is painted with a Molotow Liquid Chrome marker. The interior is painted to look like it's been restored. The engine is completely box stock. The body has been lowered. This was a fun kit to build.
