  1. Woodsy , Combo , Testors Leather and Sand Beige !
  2. Ok , Harry . Drag and NASCAR stay as they are , those guys have their own click and it works for them . I'm not a NASCAR guy but I do visit the drag section each day . Under glass competition section , I'd like that ! This way , I get to see a little bit of everything , competitionwise . Digging through drag and NASCAR combined really doesn't appeal to me . Any other way , I'll side with Johnny , if it ain't broke , don't try to fix it !
  3. Ok , D ! No zombies ? Fine ! Cast up Cranky and the Little General . I'll chop them up and hang them off the front of the Immolator with the appropriate amount of gore ! Doc's scary enough as it is in real life mode , you had to go and make him in miniature ? Yeesh ! Lol !
  4. In the home stretch now ! Bed is complete , all major parts are built and in place , just a matter of adding the detail as I go along !
  5. Cowl hoods ..... Ed Fluck at drag city casting !
  6. Slixx. Com for decals . No need for clear over bare metal foil .
  7. A brass brush , you can pick one up at any hardware store , looks like an oversized tooth brush . Lightly draw it across the surface , you can then scrub lighter shades of red pastel chalk into the surface with a regular tooth brush . You can then dry brush some highlights into the scratches using steel or aluminum colors to indicate fresh scrapes or rust to indicate older injuries to the body .
  8. Hmmmm , I know you didn't show Mama Suarez that deck lid , I'd have heard that skillet hit all the way up here ! Lmao ! All right , you did the old broad proud ! She can still shake it , no doubt ! Now , you need to start on a young thang with all the shine that youth can provide !
  9. Lordy , Lordy , He's gone over the edge ....... Again ! Lmao!
  10. Trouble being , your daughters will be kicking your posterior end for getting their kids all covered with rust , dust , and corruption ! I get yelled at all the time , I just laugh and point towards the laundry room !
  11. We've found that the pointed rods just pin the zombies to them and they then have to be pried off . A bit dangerous and too up close and personal for my tastes ! I'd rather play slice and dice with the big diesel providing the muscle behind it and be done with it ! Lol ! Once the rear deck is built , it will prove to be a complete multi purpose vehicle . More to come !
  12. Who told you that big fat lie , Mr Most ? Pro street is alive and kickin' here in Yostville ! Please carry on , Sir ! This certainly has my attention . Of coarse, this build will have a shine to it .........right ?
  13. Well , you have my update , Doc . The second Pete won't be in until Friday afternoon , so I went back to the shiny side of things for a bit ! Once it arrives, I can graft the rear axles onto the existing frame and then measure out and scratchbuild the rear section .
  14. As everyone knows , my vote goes with the bottled Testors enamels . When cut with cheap laquer thinner and shot through an airbrush , they really have no peer . I also use the Metallizer line exclusively , both bottle and spray can . I like the Floquil laquer line when it comes to weathering , I have also used other laquer lines without any problems . If you know your product , develop a system to use it , and follow it to the letter , you'll eventually master it !
  15. Manny , You're a smart man , think about it ! There are ways and then there are ways , capice ? Too many licensing fees , people that say no to them , etc ! Yet , you are still able to build that particular drag car , right ? Trade off what you don't use or want from the sheets . Go to their site , look at the decal sheets and start putting two and two together , you'll catch on soon enough ! By the way , really enjoy your work ! The Old Man
  16. . T , Virgil is out of town at the moment . He is consulting with an interior designer for the burlesque theater's accessories .
  17. It was not a hoax , not a game or plot to increase sales . Piracy , slow sales , licensing fees , etc , forced the initial decision ! As far as I'm concerned , we just dodged a bullet . The hobby can ill afford to lose this company or the individuals that run it ! Drag race freaks would agree wholeheartedly ! No conspiracy here , just two people struggling businesswise with the times .
  18. Hmmm , Time to break out the enamels and roll with it , Mr Jessee ! You did promise ! Lol!
  19. Nope ! I just haven't found a way to type and build at the same time ! Doggone Generals are always assuming stuff ! Lol ! Tires are finished , weapons are prepped , more detail has been gathered and prepped , and I started scratch building the rear deck ! Tell the General to stick that in his pipe and smoke it ! Battery went dead in the Mustang , I couldn't use the airbrush today ! Otherwise , I'd have all of the aluminum painted and weathered ! Tell the General to go find a fire hydrant ! Lmao !
  20. If it does , I'm chaining him to a post in the shop and putting him to work ! Of coarse , I'll feed him a variety of Primanti Bros sandwiches on a regular basis ! Doc would be in his glory !
  21. Please do not go near the community build section . Your blood pressure might rise quite a bit . The dark side called .... I answered ! Lol !
  22. Frank , Doc is buried in the shop with a new build ! He'll resurface soon enough , just as soon as the laquer cloud dissipates ! I hope ! Lol !
  23. Use the Testors clear top coat ! Enamel with enamel , you can't go wrong ! It will really bring the pearl and shine to the forefront . Always happy to hear that the DVD helped out ! Good for you, fun wasn't it ? The Old Man
  24. Novus 2 for polishing , Final Treatment Detail Wax for waxing and finish ! Micro Mark carries the products.
