Dr. Cranky Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 The Alclad work is OUTSTANDING, and so are all the other details. Another Grand Slam, John. Keep it going, you almost have yourself another beautifully executed and finished model.
crazyjim Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 You using that urethane stuff for the clearcoat(s), John. Looks SUPER.
sak Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Very bizzare looking vehicle. I dont remeber that from the movie. I remeber seeing lots of harley davidson type bike but not that one. Sure is badass though.
CanadianKronik Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 Insane build, almost looks like the real one, just need the interceptor to go with it now.
Dr. Cranky Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 I also noticed the subtle but perfect paint (weathering) on those rear tires. Don't get tired of coming back and pouring over this one again.
simonr Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 Hey John...I'm very impressed with you've done here...very impressed...as always...Keep the good work! Simón P. Rivera Torres
Johnag4004 Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 John this is simply stunning... I hate drooling during the colder months, it leads to certain problems...
