Hey, fellas! I've been working on this drawing in MS Paint. I'm not sure where to take it from here. I thought about maybe the negative space around him could be actual 'space', with planets and such. I'm not settled on the vertebrae, just trying to fill the area below his head...... Anyway, does anyone have any ideas/suggestions for this folk art of mine? LoL......

Me and my friends at the time (late teens) would hang out at the auto detail shop where I worked....... I had my fox-chassis Mustang at the time, which of course I kept spotless! Working at a car detail shop, you get to drive all kinds of cars. Me at 18 driving a then new C5 that we kept clean for a lawyer, another time I got the chance to motor a C2 Corvette (pale yellow, 327 coupe) across town. Lots of fun driving the wide variety of vehicles!

Thank you, Carl man! I'm thinking blue for the interior with the white inserts...... I should make some door panels, too.... -
Rarely will you enjoy that without either Chips Ahoy or Oreos, though, as those go the best with milk....

It's waaaaaay too windy to paint anything today..... I was wanting to work on the interior some. Instead, I made some seat inserts from styrofoam plate material..... -

You know, robots can select those images with traffic lights........ Ever notice when a pic online is loading, there will be a caption, "image may contain....." There's even an app that you can take a pic of a flower, and the app tells you what it is, even what's wrong with it........

I just drilled the spindle higher than the stock axle hole, and am using tooth picks (whatever works, right? ) to mount the wheels... Here's how it sits in the front.... Now I need to decide exactly what stance I want to have, though I'm thinking a little nose-down...... -
How do I spray these details?
JollySipper replied to Milo's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
What I might would do then, is to 'sand' what's on the parts with Comet and a tooth brush until it all looks dull, then give it another coat or two of primer..... The scrubbing will give what is on there some 'tooth', so your next coats won't pull away from the edges so bad...... -

JollySipper replied to Milo's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
You may need to prime your parts first, Milo man..... You'll get better coverage that way. -
These are all really super good builds! I always enjoy the treat of seeing your work.......... The Packard has me wanting to build a classic now!
