Darren B Posted January 11, 2012 Author Share Posted January 11, 2012 (edited) Sounds good. Start shooting paint. Will it be SHINY :) or one of those drab kind of paint jobs? Thats what i am struggling with glossy would bring out the patterns but a vehicle from hell would have most of the paint scorched, thatis the biggest delimia flat or glossy? shooting for the most realism.

Darren B Posted January 17, 2012 Author Share Posted January 17, 2012 (edited) Made some changes to the ride, shaved off headlights will use the headlights from the monster koach. Adding the casket body from grandpas dragster as a coffin trailer, will hinge it with full interior. And added to the tailights.............

Dr. Cranky Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Geez, talk about riding style. The one thing I am not convinced about are those draggin' skulls. They look huge and way out of scale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren B Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 Dr.Cranky, yeah they are pretty big, more like 1/12th + scale, but some of the skulls on the truck are as small as 1/48th, its hard to find proper scale skulls, i liked the detail on them. I was thinking they could have been giant skulls brought back from hell centuries ago, may add some smaller ones if I can find them. They are huge thou.

tooltas Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 use one in casket for smaller subs love the way the death wagon is coming . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren B Posted January 25, 2012 Author Share Posted January 25, 2012 made hinges for the lid of the coffin, i tried to make them like the hinges on the doors to the pickup but they didnt work so just went with a simple hinge, the long wires will be cut down when its painted and ready to go the extra length make it easier to work with right now.
