Mister Twister Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 Or whats left of it. Beat up old Chevy used to be a tow truck....
1930fordpickup Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 Looks just about right. The only way to make it better would be to have the hood kinked where they all did up here.
Mister Twister Posted April 5, 2015 Author Posted April 5, 2015 Thanks much fellas....Glad you like it!
disabled modeler Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 Nice weathering....I have to get better at that.
Mister Twister Posted April 7, 2015 Author Posted April 7, 2015 Luv the ground work! Regards Brian Thanks guys....The ground work can be challenging but it is sure fun to do...Especially as you see it come together. Thanks again!
Mister Twister Posted April 7, 2015 Author Posted April 7, 2015 (edited) did you use wet paper for the tarp? The tarp is made from Kleenex tissue painted with acrylic craft paint and put in place while the paint (tissue) is still wet. The process is a little messy but it works. Its the same process I use for all my tarps (regardless of color), shop rags, towels and so on. Handling the wet tissue will always cause some tears but it is easy enough to patch by just laying on some new tissue and painting it the same color as the tarp. The painted (wet) tissue will create its own natural folds and creases as it molds to the object it is placed on. Thanks! Edited April 7, 2015 by Mister Twister
Nitrozilla Posted April 15, 2015 Posted April 15, 2015 Hey Darryl, I'm just getting caught on on stuff and found this rusted out gem. Pure modeling goodness as always. The tarp is the center of attention. No surprise there. The ground and truck look as though they are becoming one. No surprise there either.
