Where Did All The Krylon Go?
bentmetal replied to oldcarfan's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I use Krylon a lot in my builds with their primer and flat and semi flat black for the frames. They recently changed their nozzle design to a large white spray tip. The last three cans I got all plugged up solid before half the can was gone. Any one else having this problem with the new nozzles. -
There have been a lot of nice looking 57 Fords posted. Here's my version of it. I really like this kit and plan on doing a couple more.

I built this as a small desk top display. It is the simple 1/32 lindberg kit. I built it for a co-worker who has a custom 49 Ford.

Since chrysler stopped being a major sponsor every time a mopar comes across the block they break to a comercial or some other stupid item and you usually miss the bidding. Let's see them do this when the hemi vert comes up for sale. -
That is just way cool. What is the overall size of the display. Must be quite a job to move and set back up tho?

Thanks all. I got the figure from a Hallmark christmas ornament. A skate boarder coming off a curl. Wish I would of got a couple more. Here's Bobby up to no good, stealing a bit of gas from the back of the local used car lot. Got to keep the car on the road some how with a limited budget.

I think I would be a bit more colorful in my expletives if this happened to me. Seems young Bobby decided to try out the new motor in his car. Got a bit to much traction and then BANG ---- WTH ????? I need to find a bit different fiqure for this, but he relays the look I was after.

Here are some more abandoned cars I have done. I am a huge mopar fan so I will start with a few E-bodies first.

Very cool. You do nice work. I like how you also use a picture for the background settings.

Here are a couple more for your viewing.

Here are a few shelf sized displays I have done. I will break them up into a couple of posts so I don't overload you with.

I like the trucks/cars in barns scenes so I have been doing a few different barn styles. I still need to add a lot more clutter to these. As you know these always seem to be a WIP.

Howdy all. Been lurking on this site for a while but did not have a computer that I could post pics with. I think I have that fixed now so I will be posting a few of the dio's I have done. I like doing the abandoned cars - cars in barns type of scenes. If this works, stay tuned for a bunch more. Thanks----Doug

That was so cool. I got my first car when i was 16(1973). It was a white on white 1965 Chevy Impala SS. I had just enough extra to put on hijacker air shocks and ET slotted mags. Sure looked good but with a 283/powerglide - not a lot of go for such a big car. Ended up parting it out after a couple of wrecks. Would love to have another one. Have the revell kit I am going to build as a replica of it--- guess I will start that now.

I like it. Very original idea. Just goes to show you that if you look around most anything can inspire an idea.
