  1. painted some flames getting ready to foil
  2. thats why i bought a 20 gallon 5 gallons wasnt cutting it
  3. lighten up some thats what ive been called before for trying different blends and methods of painting.
  4. HOUSE OF KOLORS CONCENTRATES AND INTERCOAT SG100 are totally compatible with nail polish as shown by these results. this was nail polish blue mixed with kk04 oriental blue no intercoat. this was metalflake nailpolish mixed with Sg100 intercoat clear to break up the heavy concentration of the metalflake in the nailpolish. shot over pearl red nailpolish kk09 organic green mixed with 99c nailpolish green
  5. already in clear mode the paint is nail polish mixed with HOK blue candy concentrate
  6. got some clear on it today, one of 2 coats
  7. for the longest ive been wanting a larger spraying area in my hobby room i finally made one, its the mahi mahi because i was watching bio dome when i came up with the idea to make it. its 90% scrap made only thing i bought was the duct mount. i learned two things from this project 1 i suck at laying tiles and measuring 2 was inside the blower heres the mahi mahi i still have to make the 12x12 filter mount
  8. drawing? thats a 1:1 truck lol just a really good photo of it. its a different year than mine the one in the pic is a 56
  9. did more surgery to it i narrowed the b pillars, someone suggested moving the fenderwells forward so i did i happy with the results
  10. pulled this out of the box i knew in a way i wasnt gonna make the deadline when i moved to florida i figured id get back to it asap when i came here but with my room a wreck it would take a while and i lacked the motivation to get it done. but now its back. should i think the b pillar on it its kinda fat for a chop top.
  11. i planned on using the 58 t bird wheels but since i missed the deadline i decided to go my own way with it im still keeping the same paintjob in mind.
  12. this is a combo of RC metal flake and punk rock metalflake nailpolish mixed with house of kolors SG100
  13. about 120 or so not counting the 70 i gave away in the spring
  14. i cleaned it but the problem is still there tho it is spraying at a higher psi but not at what the compressor is set at
  15. I notice today that one of my airbrushes doesnt spray at normal PSI. At first i thought it was the compressor and after a few tests i noticed it was just that airbrush. i set it at 20 and it feels like its spraying at 5psi is something broken on it?
  16. man it looks fast just sitting there
  17. more pics last set for tonight going all flake on this one
  18. nah been a fan of the zoku stuff for years, i built the crown 2 years ago it got some shelf damage which led it to the condition you see today
  19. yup not at full building strength till at least the fall and even then i probably wont build much due to school here you go http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=37614&st=0&p=387520&fromsearch=1&#entry387520
  20. theres a hilarious youtube video of a very irate mechanic locked in one i would post it but it has strong language
  21. i laughed i should do some pinstripping on the differential cover see if anyone gets it
  22. that report isnt complete nasa said it wasnt impossible but they also had to do a lot more to the car like messing with the computer to get it to accelerate on its own. so that paragraph is way off. the whole toyota thing is no different that the minority of stupid C6 corvette owners that lock themselves in their own car and dont know where the manual release latch is
  23. sort of a rebuild based on this video. i plan on adding zoku pipes to mine and probably a crazy paintjob though ive noticed they really dont do wild paintjobs like the Zokusha cars
  24. courts found that out that stupid drivers were causing the acceleration problems, Japan introduced Lexus not too long ago.
