  1. None, treat it like resin go slow and wear a mask
  2. Finished the floorboard but ran out of resin. Originally I was supposed to cut the interior tub floor to mate to the floorboard but changed plans and cut the print instead and caused a whole load of problems after that. That aside I learned that Wesleys Bleeche white cleans the residue after curing better than alcohol does without as much waste all I did was spray it, let it sit a second, then hit it with a soft brush and rinse it off.
  3. First big print, scanned the chassis and separated the frame and floorboard into two separate parts, floorboard still printing. Only difference really is the narrowed rear arches for deeper dish wheels.
  4. Modded my pen sander to hook and loop now I use it for most of my sanding
  5. Was actually the first body i successfully scanned and at the time didnt know what to do with it ive since learned the scanner and now pretty much putting every kit i build through the process before any work is done. This one Got a C10 Grille, bunny window fillers, and wanted a more first gen camaro style bumper to match up the grill, other accessories are being printed as the build progresses. the van is 1/20 so i had to scale some lowrider wheels to stock 10" and made some custom tires for it. the Honda letters will be shaved at some point only give away it was a honda will be on the trunk handle.
  6. Finished the C10 nose and custom bumper, just gotta open the housing more so I can tuck the C10 grill
  7. The car was referred in the movie as a Shelby even the Shelby likenesses we're used.
  8. Good news, now I hope all the builder she stole cars from sue as well. And maybe one of the companies will deliver a kit? https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a42233053/shelby-estate-wins-eleanor-ford-mustang-copyright-lawsuit/
  9. Squaring up the Honda C10 Kei to get the parts ready for print and making new bumpers to line up more with the grill
  10. i use it regularly helps with designing parts no more taking a ton of measurements and screw up a fender flare
  11. I'm still on the fence with this project since I won't be selling directly to people, they will be traditionally casted with soft compound tires I'm thinking 270 all around with 35 profile in the front and 40 in the back. The wheels are staggered offset 2 piece.
  12. First build in almost 6 years. I decided to use this car as a skills benchmark to see where I was at and where I need to do some work. The interior is all custom cut craft foam with printed dash,seats, and console. Outside just opened trunk, 3D printed wheels and hydraulics.
  13. Nobody under 35 wants a A67 lol, the cool supras start at A70
  14. first build in a really long time, using it as a benchmark to see where im at and where i need to improve
  15. .0011 layer heavily slowed down, sadly it had a slight layer shift
  16. a while ago, done several things with it since
  17. Hobby Island702, Hobby One Japan, Friendly Hobbies Rancho area, and Downtown Hobby 9
  18. yeah people still get mad its not a ESV, im not fazed by the camaro having plastic tires, only takes a minimum level of skill to make them look more realistic than regular kit tires.
  19. 3D scanned a Gbody chassis and made a custom frame
  20. Picked up a revopoint, its a game changer on my bench especially with the diecast poseable chassis. its also helping me bigtime with drawing bodies
  21. i bought one just waiting for it to show up im using mine for 1:1 purposes
  22. Been using the mars for a while now upgraded to a mars 2 and yesterday while doing some 1/64 stuff i realized i was outgrowing it. I got lucky today got a mildy modded saturn for 240$
  23. my site its a subscription site note: its mostly modern wheels have 1/64 to 1/10 https://www.patreon.com/Daftwheels
