69 Daytona Pro Mod 1/16th scale updated 4/3/12 ..It's a wrap!
Romell R replied to Romell R's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
Wasnt hard Bart I just drew a dot on the window the size I needed with a black sharpie, then I used a drill bit in my dremel to punch a starter hole , then all I did was ream the hole out with the drill bit untill all the black ink was gone. Wahla ! instant access hole. -
How do I paint cars without an airbrush?
Romell R replied to Mick5s's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I disagree whole heartly with stating with a single action airbrush. I started with a double action and with just a couple paractise runs on a spare body I was able to turn out fairly decent paint jobs which only got better over time. I believe if you go stright to a double action you cut out having to re-learn the same tool twice. Why teach youself something only to have to teach yourself a differant way later , when all this time can be spent perfecting the goal you set out for in the first place. So I say get yourself that double action and get good with it! -

I purchased two 1/16th scale helmets from charlie over at ProTech and they came in today. heres what I did with one of them...... Heres the helmet fresh out the packaging.... And here it is after about 3 hours of masking and spraying.......oh and I drilled it out too. I also have a visor but I cant put it on untill after I shoot the clear on it..... -
You asked for the best thing to get for making decals ....Well the best thing would be an ALPS printer if you can find one , there on ebay every now and then amd most sell for right around $400.00 Ive seen then sell for as much as $700.00. Keep in mind that once you get the printer your gonna need a program like Coral draw 7 another &100.00 bucks on the cheap side. This is the best way to set yourself up. But like Bart said there are cheaper ways of doing it.

My next project is a 69 camaro Promod (with the works of course). The bolts are actually rivets with a 4mm stem on them (you can get them from scale hardware), I drilled the windshield, then inserted the rivet into the hole then I used tamiya clear like glue on the back side. Once the clear was dried I cliped of the stem on the back side of the windshield. -
