  3. MOONS!!! Decided to go with Moon Discs up front! I sanded the outside of the Wheels Smooth... Then I covered them with Bare Metal Foil. This was the last detail... I'll be finishing SNAKE FINK this Weekend! Lots of photos coming!!!
  4. Thanks for the kind words Bart!
  5. SNAKE MOUTH!!! Don's Head is now glued into the Helmet. I glued Don's Tounge in with Zap-A-Gap. Now I can move the Tounge in to positions without breaking the glue bond. I'm looking for a Mouth for Don.........Found it! Red Felt cut to size works Great! Here is the Felt in place! Done!
  6. Thank You My Friend!
  7. TEST FIT DAY!!! Test Fitting....getting ready for Final Assemblies! That's a Big Rear End!!!
  8. Thanks for the kind words Don!
  9. BONES LOOKS GREAT!!! Great work on the Helmet & Googles Don. They look like the real thing!
  10. PUTTIN' On DON'S FACE!!! Part 2... I Googled Cobras and I found the Cobra Eyes, perfect for Don. I painted Don's Eyes with a coat of Gold, followed by a coat of Metalic Amber. Next I painted a Yellow Ring around Don's Pupils.... I applied more of "The Detailer" Black aound the Eyes & Teeth. Then I applied a few coats of Glosscoat. Don's doing a Test Fit Today. It's a tight fit but Don likes it that way!
  11. Thanks Bart! I am making Don a Cobra, Googled Cobras and found that they have round pupils....
  12. PUTTIN' On DON'S FACE... I painted Don's Eyes with Model Master Graphite Metallic. Then I painted his Teeth with an Acrylic White Primer. After the Paint Dried, I painted "The Detailer" Black in all the creases and depressions in Don's Face. I punched out 2 Circles of Blue Masking Tape. Then I positioned them as Masks for Don's Pupils... End of Part 1...
  13. DETAILS, Details, and more details... I Drilled holes in Don's Helmet so I could insert Straight Pins to look like Chrome Snaps. I glued them in with Zap-A-Gap and cut off the excess Pin.
  14. WORKIN' On The RAMCHERO FRAME...Part 2!!! After I got a Good Fit, I cut Sheet Plastic to fit where the tops of the Frame touch the body. Glued them in with Zap-A-Gap. This will make mounting the body Easy & Secure! Then I sanded the Frame smooth and painted it with Black Primer. Done!
  15. WORKIN' On The RANCHERO FRAME! I used the Frame from a Vintage Deal's Wheels Tirebird. First I fit the Frame to the inside of the RAMCHERO Body. Then I trimmed the tops of the Frame untill I got a Good Fit and the Tires were positioned right! I cut the rear of the Frame off at an angle to fit inside of the rear of the RAMCHERO. Then I cut a piece of Sheet Plastic to fit the cut -off area. I Glued it in with Zap-A-Gap. End of Part 1...
  16. Me too, this is my new favorite!
