That's a nice little hearse. Great paint work. I am also getting in to customizing Hot Wheels along with my model building. It's a good change of pace. Let us see more.

Nice to see you again there Brandon. Nice color for the hearse. I thought about doing stuff like that but not to comfy with the idea of popping the rivets. Oh and lol @ Elvira

yeah, yeah, i know, i'm slow. and yeah i got lots to show, but i can't. sorry. most of my stuff is packed up in storage. and i'm currently have no place to stay, ugh. well i'm staying with a friend, but i can't do any model work or anything right now. but when i get another job, and all of the problems are settled out, then i will get back to working.

Your mom's favorite car is a hearse??? blink.gif

Who's your mom... Elvira? laugh.gif

yeah, its her favorite car, her other favorite car is a geo storm gsi! lol, and i got a model of one of them and i'm also working(was working on it) to make it look like the one she used to own, i loved it. that strom was a cool car!

hahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!! if my mom was Elvira, then my whole family would be the Adam's family! LOL,

thank you for the kind words friend! and oh, well its not hard to drill out the rivets, and if you get it just right (whitch i never do) you can drill enough of the rivet out, and get the bottom off but it will still snap back on. but most of the time i glue the bottom on.

Thanks for the tip Brandon, I just got ahold of a dremel so maybe I'll try it hmmmmm..... Look what you started laugh.gif

anytime! its easy once you get the hang of it. just don't drill to fast and to hard other wise you might mess something up! i learned the hard way, sorta, lol.
