Erik, were you using solvent based paints & cleaners? I have hope acrylics will make things last a bit longer.

no one had the footprint gas pedal?

maybe a Willys pickup cab and 40 ford fenders? I honestly think if you got the grille, headlights, & hood close, no one would bust your chops about the rest of the body. well .... except here. but that's only because you asked. if you had just cobbled something together with the disclaimer "here's my interpretation of.." there would have been plenty of Ooohs & Aaahs even if it was full of sink marks, mold lines, and cat fur in the paint.

leaves and snow. the good Lord puts 'em down, and he can certainly take them away, then.

and the SS COLA for January gives me enough to get 1 more kit per month!!!

check Hunter Selby videos on youtube; he details that very step on his latest Kenworth Challenge build. go back about 3 weeks to #1.

trying to find a video from the YouTube modeling community that doesn't have someone either sniffling, sucking their teeth, mouth breathing, or belching their lunch. c'mon, people ....

#2

first this week it was Raphael Ravenscroft, now JB. they say it comes in threes...

looks good. I almost expected to see the little dingle-balls in the back window.

Modlguy - do you like the neo?

looks exciting, but he's no Rollie Free

if it's the real thing you're after, maybe the model/ radio control airplane guys could help? ps: I think "carbon-fiber" is code for "bring your wallet"

thank you .... but I do love the '34 pickup

yeah; bodyshop work is almost as much fun as welding & grinding

some guys use medical tape and paint it. some guys use ribbon from the craft store. some guys make tuck 'n' roll with flat styrene strips. or "gymp" if you're really old school. some guys use flocking. some "Obsessive" guys use wire or round styrene rods to add piping. decals can be had from Scalemotorsport if you want high tech patterns.

Bombs are best that way

that's enough! Q: what's the conduit? and how in the world did you slice the bezels? thanks

was there any difficulty getting the decals to bond where the oil paint was under ? and - two part question - where the panel decals were small, how did you duplicate their grain (and base color) ? end result is quite stunning

age doesn't matter; it's the spirit which lives

needs some rust and welded spiderwebs to be really kewel

came out great

did this get to the finished page and I missed it?

how real do you want? do a search for Seuthe smoke generators and let you imagination soar!

I use my turn signal level to hang scrunchies for my ponytail
