Cool Hand

Maybe this might be worth looking into and trying ?? http://www.humbrol.c...022=

Jon, 58 is looking good. Hey Martin,glad to see you made it over here and decided to join in. Your Monte has some excellent work done so far,lost of detail for sure.Its going to be very impressive when completed. Look foward to seeing what you do with the 59. Mark, looks excellent in the mock up.The gold really does go well with the colours on the body.

Wow ! thats very impressive Mark,Looks friggin awesome.

Engine looks good James,like the induction set up.Is that from a viper engine ? 61 is real nice Chris

Thanks Joker. Yep shot the pics an hour or 2 before sunset,then kept moving it around until the angle was just right to get a full reflection on the side of the car and full reflection in the puddle.

Good to see some progress James, keep at it. Its going to look awesome when its completed.

LoL ! No Joker,its not edited it photoshop.

Cool,what colours did you use James

Looks good Antonio,thanks for sharing/showing you masking techniques

JamesDE. Thanks for the info. One day id like to get a 75 Duster and a 76 Nova and build them as Lowrider's just for something different.. Steve. Good to see some progress. Mark. patterns or no patterns the 59 is still going to look nice pearl coated metallic silver, especially with all the chrome. Bill, good job on the detail work. Keep at it fella's

Excellent !!. I like the ride height,wheels and the removed door pillars giving it a hard top look.Top job on the paint job too.

Thanks for all the comments on the Chevelle. Hope to have some updates on the 65 Impala soon,I run out TS-14 black and unfortunately will have to wait awhile before I can get some more.But in the mean time il try get the chassis and interior done. Niko. Good to see some progress,engine is looking the part.Hope to see more progress of your build soon. Bill. The Olds is looking excellent so far,sure does bling in the sunlight. JamesDe. 55 turned out good, 70 Impala is progressing well. Forgive my lack of knowledge but what type of car is your third entry ?? I personally think any year/make of American hard top coupe's make great subjects for Lowrider's.Look foward to seeing more progress on your builds. Mark. any updates on the 63 ??. 59 vert is going good so far,nice detail on the engine .Are you doing patterns ??

Thanks in advance for comments and looking.

Final completed pics of the 65 Chevelle.

Very impressive Oscar, what brand of paint are you using ??

Chevelle completed. Will post some more pics soon.

Chevelle is nearly done,should have it completed tomorrow.

Oscar, patterns look good so far and cheers for the inspiration.

Once again thanks for showing the technique's you used to do your paint work Mark. Very impressive so far, looks awesome in the last mock up pic. You and Virgil convinced me I would be better of using an air-brush to do patterns,So I scored a new dual action air-brush kit yesterday. Now I just need to get the 65 Chevelle and 65 Impala done so I can try do some patterns on a build. Thanks for all the inspiration in this thread/topic,keep up the good work fella's.

Looks cool Mark. What program are you using to render the layout ?? Ive been using OpenOffice Draw to help design a pattern layout,il post some pics when I start my patterned build.

Progress on the Chevelle. Interior is 90% complete just a couple touch ups to do. Chassis complete.

JamesDE. Good colour choice, will look excellent with all the chrome. Joker,,Caprice looks real good.You just need to build a Lowrider tow-rig now. Mark, thanks for the tips on the tape work. Do you work out and draw a design for the patterns on paper before you start laying tape or do you make it up as you go along ??. Also are you using Tamiya tape ??.

Nice work James,colour matched Lowrider bike is cool.
