  1. SCI-FI INTERIOR! These parts from the AMT Pod Racer fit right into the Ferrari Door Panels. The Door and Bubble Controls, Speakers and Air Vents are all in the Door Panel Now. I cut the Button Panel from the other Pod Racer Parts and glued it to the dashboard. Then I sanded the Gauge Area nice and smooth. Next I used Vallejo Flat Black and hand painted the Digital Display. I just started using this Vallejo Paint and it seems to level itself out flat, the Digital Display is very smooth... Here are the AMT X-Wing Fighter Parts in place. The Air Vent was cut to fit between the Generators. This assembly includes Anti-Gravity Generators, Air Cleaning Engines and an Air Vent. More Coming...
  2. ADVANCED HARDWARE! I found these parts in the AMT Star Wars, X-Wing Fighter and the Podracer. I'm going to use these parts for an Anti-Gravity Generator and Clean Environmental System Parts for the Frog. Here is the Hardware after a little Modification and Paint. I also found two radiators which will be used for the Clean Environment System. There is also an access door from a Tank Kit. I applied a wash with "The Detailer" Black. This brings out a lot of detail. More Coming...
  3. WATER BASE! I applied a couple coats of Testors Wet Look Clear Lacquer and let it dry. Then I hand painted the Interior with Vallejo's "Brown Sand" Acrylic Paint. I use water base paints here because when I make mistakes I can wipe them right off. I also painted the Engine Compartment with Vallejo's Flat Black. This photo shows how well the one coat of Vallejo Paint covers over flat black and very shiny Green. More Coming...

  8. Thanks Rob! Good Timing, I just posted the New Wheels & Tires for the Frog, Moonscope Tires with Mag Wheels. There are also Anti-Gravity Generators to help Fire Frog Jump higher and Land Softer. The A-G Generators are meant only to assist the Dune Buggy when necessary, not for full-time floating...

  10. Great Progress Gary! Real Nice Detailing...
  11. Thanks for the kind words Bruce! I really appreciate it...
  12. NEW WHEELS! I took a while but I found a set of Mags to replace the flat Moonscope Rims. These Mags are from the AMT Silhouette Kit. I had to remove about an 1/16 inch from the inner rims to fit the Mags in the Moonscope Tires. I removed the chrome from the Mags and painted the Wheels with Model Masters Magnesium. Here are the Silhouette Wheels mounted in the Moonscope Tires. More Coming...
  13. Thanks for the kind words Niko! I really appreciate it...
  14. HOT FROG! Here is the Fire Frog with the decals in place! ANTI-GRAVITY GENERATORS! The Vents in the bottom front and rear are the outlets for the Anti-Gravity Generators. The A-G Generators help the Fire Frog make higher jumps and softer landings. More Coming...
  15. Thanks Dave! This one will have BiG Wide Tires and Anti-Gravity Generators, but I think it will be an Earth Buggy...
  16. Great Build Dr.!
