I see you are already mastering the look, keep practicing, it will only get better!

Big sit pictures...... http://public.fotki.com/MCRUZ1/big-sit-1/

Awesome work, very unique!

:PCool, in places like the Caribbean, this is considered blasphemy.

very cool!

I don't think they were going to fix the roof on this thing simply because they made a drag version of it....yes? no?

Just start with the scriber, finish with the blade.....

Very cool Dale!!!

Unbelievable stuff, you can't be from this world.....

Terrific!!

Very cool!!!!

Anybody else have more pictures, better yet any links on vintage drag racing engines?

I love them....

Very nice!!!

Very cool, love the color!

Is this based on a Japanese kit?

Incredible stuff, I am thoroughly enjoying and learning a lot!!!

E-mail Norm at replmincomd@aol.com, he does not have a website....

I definitely agree with JC on this, another category for F1 and the various other motorsports would be a good idea, I've had a lot of modelers telling me the same thing. Hopefully it can be done!

Very cool man!!!

Very cool my friend, pictures are great!!!

Great work!!!

I definitely use plastruct to simulate the molding that separates the body from the roof and also for the strips that run across the top of the roof. Make sure to fill the middle part with a few heavy coats of primer, this way it will be easier to replicate the overlap on the strips of the roof. I simply airbrush a few coats of Testor's enamel Gloss Black from afar to create heavy orange peel. Once dry, I will sand lightly and then shoot either a semi gloss black color to dull down the gloss, of course if that is your color of choice.

I've never had this happen Gene, I use Mig washes and these are enamel based, don't know if a water based one would wash off but I still don't think so. I've had a few people tell me that they've used water based colors when trying this system and I am still to hear that it has been washed out. If you scribe those lines nice and deep, I just can't see that happening. You do have to remember that you can always add a bit more wash even after painting, that's the beauty of scribing the lines deep. Just make sure that there is no sanding debris when doing so.
