PatW Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 One of my two Christmas presents from my wife................. I will need quite a while to perfect exhaust flames, but on this one I found side flame decals and laid them up on clear plastic sheet (food carton)........... As no decals came with the kit I found these in the spares box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneTrickPony Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I like it! This would also be a good place for some cotton ball smoke behind the tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatW Posted January 5, 2018 Author Share Posted January 5, 2018 Cheers guys, it's the first time I've bought one of these Snap Kits. As someone said you need to add details/decals/flames, tyre smoke etc. I'll have to look into that, I have found a few on YouTube tutoring video's for that.

vintagercr Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 That looks like it was fun to build. I like the flame idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatW Posted January 5, 2018 Author Share Posted January 5, 2018 Yes Steve it was fun to build as it's only a snap kit, so adding extra detail makes all the difference! The flames took me a while to think up. I looked at various videos on YouTube but none fitted this build. So I will look into improving that aspect of future builds where flames need to be shown.

Ben Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 I put these at the end of the headers on my Bad Boy. They’re LEGO flames. They have several different types. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
