The liberal use of diamond-plate in the shoebox Ford is well in tune with the era. And "Baron Von Lobo" made me smile! CT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 10/24/2022 at 2:37 PM, NYLIBUD said: Yea this thing is wild.How did u apply the paint job,or are they decals on that car? Hi...thanks for the compliments! This was a fun one. I shot the body with three coats of Tamiya Bare Metal (TS-12), made most of the decals with my fuzzy inkjet printer, then used a small hand punch to simulate over 1,000 rivets, wiped Tamiya Black Panel Line over everything and gave it three coats of Tamiya Clear (TS-13). I am really happy how it turned out. One of my favorites too!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYLIBUD Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Found a few more older pics of some drag racing projects that I had been working on awhile ago,including the Diorama of a race shop.I don’t recall if i ever finished the Pacer wagon.

NYLIBUD Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 (edited) So the other day I was going through my phone and found even some more of my drag racing builds over the past couple of years,along with some real cars that influenced the builds.However, I must admit that the orange and tan Mustang,were not built by me,but rather they were seen and admired at a local model contest a few years ago.IMO,the orange Mustang might be one of the best drag racing models I’ve ever seen.😎Hope you like the pics. Thanks. Edited November 17, 2022 by NYLIBUD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How the hell do you guys do the white letter tires so good too? This is an Awsome thread. hats off to all of you. I've been using decals, almost exclusively for tire lettering, the last few years. AMT did some tire sets that were beautiful, but, they're pretty much gone, now, and are often quite expensive. Fireball Modelworks has some fantastic lettering decals. I would highly recommend them! Here's my latest drag racer. I just finished it within the past week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
