What Did You See In Your Yard Today?

Looks great, nice details throughout the chassis.

This is more like it. Gotta do a bit of touching up, and finish detailing the cluster, but the foil really pulled off what I wanted.

More beautiful work.👍

Flocking/ embossing powder not covering
johnyrotten replied to Hondamatic's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I've tried thinning it 50% distilled water as well as straight from the bottle. Perhaps I'm too light on the glue? Haven't tried any other ratio or products ( mod podge,paint, ect). I was thinking about water-based clear,(vallejo clear varnish in the small dropper)but chemical reactions and all. -

Ive tried Elmer's glue a few times, spotty results like above. At least it's easy clean up. Paying attention to this. -
Great looking street rod,reminds me of every magazine cover from my childhood. You nailed the look.

Patience is something I have a ton of. I no longer get mad if I make a mistake, whatever it cost me(time,money,ect) was the cost of that "education". Things go smoother for me now that I apply that idea to project. Thanks for checking it out.

Thanks, hopefully I can repaint the rest of the interior, I'm working on my skills detailing dashes and such.

Finished stripping the dash and interior tub. Foiled the door trim and around the cluster/center console tonight. Everything into primer tonight, painting tomorrow. Hopefully I can pull this off like I did the steering wheel. Thanks for checking this out.

6 bolts and "dance" the heavy battery in. I'm 5'10" and need step stool to reach and not scratch or dent my truck. They sized that area so it goes in and out one way. No handle on the battery,even more fun. As for german cars, my wife's vw is loads of fun. The DOOR SKIN has to come off to replace the window regulator, a dozen or so differently sized fasteners that WILL damage the paint/panel if placed wrong. And the interior panel comes off as well to do the job.
