JTRACING

got the dash painted, i left the pics bigger to try and show the wood grain.

back seat

thanks, i did add the tubes and the wires come out of them.

rolling chassis!

how about the other end of this gun barrel lol

some neat ideas to be found in you tube. click through all the related videos and stuff

why was it they deleted it? no wonder i couldn't find it when i did a search a while back lol...

I have most of the rust added now. just some fine tuning to do. next i can add in some streaking and stuff

body color on, and the deep rust showing. next I'll add in more surface rust by stippling it on with an old brush then add pastels chalks and whatnot. i gotta add the rest of the chrome side trim first though

a little work on the body i go the basic rust color applied. I'll add a few other shades in areas still. then i can cover it in salt and spray on the actual color of the car. which im thinking a dark green or blue.

thanks guys I noticed it has many holes on the top sides of the front fenders so i added a couple there. rest of the body will be just surface rust.

bit of engine work

a start on the body. the look I'm after is the car will have its "original" paint with surface rust etc. then some spots will be primer and others will have bare metal showing. so it looks like someone is doin body work on it in the garage or something. so heres the first steps. added a few rusted through spots. and some BMF where i want bare metal the bmf is sanded to give random look like sheet metal and also the edges of the BMF are sanded in flush with the rest of the body. all for now my BMF sheet is all wrinkly or i would have had more done lol

started this one the other day a bit of work on the chassis so far some ref pics. get an idea of the weathering

Just a quick fictional build using some left over decals.

thanks! heres a closer view of the wheels

Finished this one today. I built the #63 since it has the Canadian driver Paint is Krylon sun yellow, for clear coat I airbrushed on 3 coats of future floor polish. Wheels were painted tamiya flat aluminum. I also used some scrap PE parts I had laying around, the antennas are stretched sprue and the Naca ducts on the vent windows are decals from Powerslide. Overall the kit is good, but the detail is really simplified on the engine and interior so I didn't bother to much with those lol. also my body was warped a bit , that went away when I glued it to the chassis but then I found the hood would not sit flush on the straight body so I ended up gluing it on

finished this one tonight

used the oil tank from a revell chopper BMF'd it and weathered it up . and stuck on a battery I find you need to use pastel over a flat paint

thanks, ive added more white chalk on the body paint now also to blend it more and give a faded look , and yes some black pastel dustin on the seat and around the seams tonight i painted the frame. not sure what to use for headlights. i'll have to get a 32 ford kit i guess cause the lights in the kit suck hard lol

for the main rust i use red primer. then dab on brown and red craft paint. dabbing gives it a texture. then add pastels over it for different shades.

some more painting
