Eric Stone Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Also, when/if you explain the rollbar padding, can you also explain how you made the lettering on the rear tires look so realistic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Teresi Posted June 30, 2010 Author Share Posted June 30, 2010 Also, when/if you explain the rollbar padding, can you also explain how you made the lettering on the rear tires look so realistic? Eric.....the padding is electrical shrink wrap tubbing from the computer store.......they come in 3 ft lengths and 2 different diameters...... they cost around $2.00 each.......I use one size for 1/24 scale and the other for 1/16 scale........you slip it over the roll bar and heat it with a lighter and it shrinks around the roll bar........as far as the weathering on the tires I have shared many times on some of my post.......if you can look back on some of my post you should find it.....if not P.M. me and I will explain how .......thank`s ,John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
