  3. building it as the predicta in a period after the monogram give away and the disaster of the american chopper version. originally was going for box stock but meh i had to dig deep in the parts box for wheels couldnt find the right tires so i made my own whitewalls im working on colors im thinking a dark magenta or something that would look good with fades

  19. didnt want you desintergrading a mold either lol, the stuff i use is mold max it has yet to cause a negative effect even after reverting to its old size. oomoo30 stayed enlarged and the mold became brittle after 2 castings. dont know how other compounds react as i dont have them on hand ive yet to try a 2 piece mold
