  1. love it great concept and clean building so far, will be watching this one.
  2. Thanks Danno, getting closer on the pumps, ill use hard line to plumb the rest......
  3. wow work in progress? this looks more than done it looks like it was left outside for the last 45 years, i would love to learn how to do this, more more more please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  4. Just a tiny update as I have spent a lot of time trying to figure out the hydro line situation, not to happy with it so far but only have gotten this far after a week or so looking at set ups. this is what I'm looking at for a hood ornament, and a better cleaner graphic for the hood.
  5. wow I just came across this build and went thru the entire thread, you match that cover car 120% very clean and beautiful detailed building I loved every minute of it..........
  6. wow serious workmanship i am loving this build totally keep up the awesome work I have to see this one done.....
  7. Thanks David, I am trying to get to the finish line but with all my theme builds i always try to add more to it and re engineer it when I should be saying enough is enough, just finish this thing....
  8. I was going to originally make the knockoffs look like wood but that was not working out to well so i alclad them.......
  9. WOW. that thing is super clean, very clean building style, can not wait to see this baby done.
  10. Found some beads at JoAnn and am taking my dremel to open up the opening and the beds to make pots out of them for the beds.....
  11. love it thanks for sharing.
  12. got three new ideas for the design for the hood of the warrior, using the paste then paint method, I may just go with one of these........
  13. np real updates, been working on the suspension and the running gear just added the plaque to the stonework for the back of cab.
  14. no your right it is watermelon heres a pic of the box that i bought that has the strawberries top left.
  15. Not sure if these will work for everyone but was in walmart the other day and came across packages of small do dads to put in nail polish as it dries. On the top row is strawberries (not to convincing and not pictured) kiwi, oranges and watermelon, the rest of the packaged had stars and other objects but I thought that these three were the most convincing, they look close to scale and i bought several packages thinking that it could be added to dashboards or placed on the seats of vehicles or even in a scratch built picnic basket.
  16. Thanks guys, i want to get this one finished soon, I am at the point that I just want to get this project under glass........
  17. still have not decided on colors or patterns but did get the stacks and manifold alcladed and the steering wheel.
  18. Lambo would be cool but Im thinking suicide doors, I tend to do most of mine suicide its a lot easier to make the hinge and its different then the door doing a regular swing, I love the concept I like it!
  19. Did some more vinyl cutting lately may add some masks for graphics like this on the hood.
  20. cool thanks James, Ill give that a try. I like the effect of the pen.....
  21. I believe I have found a color combo, I wanted to do a paint job with a lot of patterns, but with the beds and all the detail work in the interior, I did not want to make it look to gaudy, i have decided to go with a metallic root beer brown, with gold accents, may use a gel pen for pin striping that is if it ever dries.
  22. wow this thing brings back a lot of memories for me, I wish revell would reissue this one, when I first built it I was 10. now that my skills have advanced greatly would love another shot at it...........
