Paint inside or outside first?
bbowser replied to trey allen's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I do the inside first. That way any overspray from the outside can be touched up after where it is less noticable. I find it difficult to mask the outside and not have overspray from the inside get through. All a matter of preference -
I like yours more! How did you do the "blue line" tires?

Deepen Door,Hood,Trunk Lines?
bbowser replied to Yekoms's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I just use the back of a #11 blade, gently at first - it's easy to gouge offline! It's done mainly to sharpen up the lines so they don't get buried by coats of paint. -
Haven't seen much activity here lately? This is an older build, no extra details, just paint and decals. The Silver Fox is going in the hall of fame this year!

I'd like to comment, but I haven't received #158 yet

Any pics? Sounds cool.

Where Were You in '62? World's Fair, Perhaps??

I was in 2nd grade, just starting to glue my fingers together on WWI biplanes. -
Wow! What kind of paint do you use? Hobby enamel-lacquer, auto touch-up? These are all just gorgeous
-
Another awesome Labonte build. Aren't you going to run out of variations soon?

Sterling signed to run for Junior Johnson in 1991. Finished 2nd in the Daytona 500 and had 2 poles, Talladega and the Firecracker 400 that year, finishing 7th in the standings. Monogram Ford OOB.

Gorgeous might be a stretch, but I love it! Those old mopars really had character. Great build.
-
Love the 'frenched' license plate. Great build.
-
Thanks for the kind words. Seeing your work on this forum I consider that a great compliment!
-
I'm sorry I don't remember what paint was used. I think the Tamiya would work fine.
-
Very nice. Great work on the decals.
-
I always liked this paint scheme. Decals were large but manageable. I think this was the car they put the roof hatch in so he could get out in a hurry if need be? I didn't add that detail.

Great job, nice color and foiling. Love the old land yachts.
-
Excellent job!
-
Wow! Scale drum brakes. That's something I haven't seen before. Must have been fun with all those little springs and levers
-
Sweet! Was the whole thing decals?
-
Nice sponsor on the trunk! I'm diggin' the hauler as well.
-
Looks cool! The pics are a little hard to see, how did you do the 'pitted chrome'?
-
Very nice. Those Chevelles were cool. I like the paint scheme too.
-
I've built so many Monogram NASCARs I could do it in my sleep (some might say I have on occasion). I say build what you like
