  1. Here's a few more. Thanks for looking. Corey
  2. Thanks Ray. I figured out that if I can paint black and have it turn out good, most other colors are a breeze. So much prepwork with black, but the end result is worth it. Corey
  3. Here's a few more today. Wet sanded the color coat with 2000 grit. Shot on another color coat, followed 15 minutes later by a coat of clear. Thanks for looking. Corey
  4. Awesome stuff there Randy! Incredble work! Corey
  5. Nice detail on the Chevelle man. Super clean looking. Corey
  6. Thanks Dave. And you're very welcome my friend. Corey
  7. That's ok man. I think we all feel that way sometimes. I know I do. Corey
  8. Thanks man. LOL. No Brian I'm not using those wheels. I just pulled a set of wheels/tires from another kit to do a mock up with. It's gonna have body color steelies with dog dishes and possibly trim rings. Corey
  9. Thanks Tubbs. It's gonna have black interior, and black billboards. Corey Thanks Tubbs. It's gonna have black interior and black billboards. Corey
  10. Even more envious than before. Corey
  11. Thanks Bill! I'm sure your's is gonna blow over small children when they walk by, let alone how mean it's gonna look. I'm sure it'll be a monster. Corey
  12. Lookin pretty awesome man. Corey
  13. This is approximately what the stance is gonna be like. Thanks for looking. Corey
  14. I usa Aleene's Clear Gel Tacky Glue. Not a problem 1, and it dries quckly, and crystal clear. You can get it at about any crafts store. Corey
  15. That big old hemi looks right at home in there. Cool build. Nice job so far. Corey
  16. Thanks man, you're too kind. I've got pretty high expectations of this build. I'm just gonna take it one step at a time, and not get into too big of hurry. But I can't wait to see it finished!!! Corey
  17. Thanks Fred and Randy. Gonna see what I can get done on the engine tonight. Will post up before I go to bed. Corey
  18. That thing is a monster. LOVE the flake in that killer flip/flop paint. Looking incredible so far. Corey
  19. Got the trunk cut open and another coat of primer. Body prepped and 2 light mist coats. Then 15 min later, a wet coat. Missed part of the engine bay. It'll get lightly wet sanded with 2000 grit, then shot again. Then some clear if everything goes well. Wet sanded, and cleared again. And another time. Alot of people don't know it, but; every time you wet sand clear, it practically doubles the shine when you clear it again. Well, alot of people do realize it. Just one of the many little tricks I learned from my mom's ex husband. He painted semi trucks for a living. Corey Thanks for looking. Corey
  20. That's really cool Niko. I don't have much of a problem finding something to do either. Seem like that's a common problem with today's youth. TOO many video games, and not enough creative juices flowing. That's cool that you've already got 50 builds under your belt. Even the ones you aren't proud of. Everybody has to start somewhere. Keep at it man. Corey
  21. Thanks Fred and Dave. Yeah man, it's gonna get the photoetch treatment throughout. Corey
  22. Thanks Bill. It ought to be pretty cool when it's done. The powerplant however, won't be near as awesome as the one going in your's. That thing is a MONSTER!!! Corey
  23. Thanks Roger. The grille is going to be body color. Trunk is open, and I already have it in more primer; waiting for it to dry. Probably going to do a custom chassis, as I dont like the limitations presented with the kits chassis. Molded in exhaust, etc. Corey
