  1. Thanks John! So glad you are enjoying it...
  2. RRRobot is Finished! Here are several photos of RRRobot, hope you enjoy them. More Photos Coming...
  3. New Windshield! I drew some lines for the New Windshield. Here it is cut out. More Coming...
  4. Prime Time! After a little more Sanding I applied a couple coats of DupliColor Filler/Primer. This helps to fill minor imperfections. Next I applied two coats of White Primer. Paint By Numbers! I drew the Paint Lines on Frankie. This makes painting the different areas a little easier. The Other Side. More Coming...
  5. Thanks Bob! That's my Favorite Part of Building...
  6. Thanks for the kind words Russ! I working on spraying Primer and Sanding now...
  7. Looks Great! Real Nice Painting...
  8. The Last Details! I added another part from the 12th scale Ferrari to RRRobot's rear end. It's one of the axle shafts, painted Brass with a Red Wash. It's right behind the large Ferrari part with the Fan. This part came from the center section of the Lost in Space Kit. I cut out the center and fit it to the front of RRRobot as shown. The Last Detail! I made this plaque from Chrome Contact Paper and self adhesive Clear Sticker material for the Ink Jet Printer. I just need to add more Decals and do a little Touch-Up and RRRobot is Finished! Finished RRRobot Photos Coming Soon...
  9. Great Progress Joe! Real Nice Details...
  10. Six More Hoses! Here is the back without Hoses. Here are the Six Hoses in place. They are from a 12th scale Ferrari. More Coming...
  11. Cut it Out!...with a Drill? I decided to turn the Van into a Bus! I'm going to cut out side windows, through which you can see the Engine. Here is the Funny Part. I cut out the Windows with a Drill Bit. I drilled a hole then pulled the Bit along the Line and it cut through as easy as can be... I used an X-Acto Knife and Sanding Boards to clean up the window lines. Here is a quick mock-up to show how the Engine can be seen through the windows... More Coming...
  12. Thanks for the kind words my friend! So glad you are enjoying it...
  13. Thanks! Yeah, these Halloween Builds are Great Fun...
  14. Me Too! Primer Photos Coming Soon...
  15. Hands! I removed a wedge shape from Frankie's arm pit and glued his arm back. Now the Arm sticks straight out instead of up. I cut down the Baseball Bat to resemble a Flower Vase. I filled the bottom of the Vase with scrap plastic and glued the left Hand in place. More Coming...
  16. Engine for the Beast! I sprayed the Big Engine with Tamiya Camel Yellow. Then I brushed on some Silver, front and back. Next I brushed on a Black Water base Wash, The Detailer. I will wipe off some of the Wash later with a wet Q-Tip. Here is the Engine, almost complete now. After a little trimming, I got the Engine fit back into the Frame. Unfortunately the Chrome wiped off. I'll paint it later... More Coming...
  17. Looks Great! Very Realistic...
  18. Thanks Dan! Yes I have driven a VW Bus, Fun Times. That's why the front axle will be moved forward and the rear axle has been moved back. The wheelbase is much longer than the stock Van...
  19. Thanks Don! The Body would be hinged in the back so the front would lift up, like a Funny Car...
