Models by Bear Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 I have read on here all the stories about Don Yost and his videos. How some of you guys purchased his videos and said all these great things about him. And that in no way he paid you to say those things or gave you anything.Well I purchased both of his DVD's. I watched them all. Then I went out and painted a 69 Camaro. I followed all his steps,And in the dvd he says ( If you follow all these steps your paint jobs will be 85% better).Well i am here to tell you he lied, My paint jobs are 100% better. Now I guess I am one of those people that would recomend that you get these and watch them too. I can't wait to use some more of his tips and see what the build turns out. For the most part this paint is flawless and turned out just the way I wanted it
Tony T Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 That is great to see someone following a video and coming up with great results. I've seen the first video and haven't yet had the chance to set up the proper environment to airbrush. I hope to rectify that this summer. Nice job, Chris!
Dr. Cranky Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 And it looks like you got great results off the bat. The Old Man is going to be overjoyed to hear it . . . he'll jump in any minute now . . .
bandit1 Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 whats the detailing one like?...i was going to get both but i want to start with the airbrushing one first...if the detail one is what i think then i may just get the airbrushing one?
Models by Bear Posted February 12, 2012 Author Posted February 12, 2012 I wont give any of his secrets away. But there is alot of things on the video that are very useful. I would recomend that if you are going to order them just get them both.I new some of the things on there form my father who built them all the way up until his passing . But there are things i think myDad would have been useing if he new about it.
Dr. Cranky Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Chris, a quick question, is that body already sanded and buffed, or is that the way it looks right out of the paint booth after the 3 days of gassing out?
Models by Bear Posted February 12, 2012 Author Posted February 12, 2012 No it has not been sanded buffed or cleared yet.
Dr. Cranky Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 There you go, it's the beauty of Donn's system. You will find that often you won't have to sand or buff at all.
Greg Busby Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 I'm going to get both I got the order form printed out and I'm going to get both of them and I'm using House Of Kolors paints as you saw Doc

Dr. Cranky Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 You better believe it. I'm lining up some of these shiny builds to start finish them pronto. Expect eye candy soon. One build at a time, and a bright (and shiny) smile!

Dr. Cranky Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) Jim (and Donn), if we lived near by we could sponsor a couple of little league baseball teams. The RUSTYS vs The SHINEYS! That'd be something, wouldn't it? Jim and Donn coach the SHINEYS and EYEGORE and I will coach the RUSTYS! :lol: I'd pay to see that! Edited February 12, 2012 by Dr. Cranky
MoparWoman Jamie Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 \ .....Sorry i cant help myself! RFLMAO!... :lol: I agree! LOL
sjordan2 Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 I just got my copies of the videos yesterday. I'll be watching them this week.
LoneWolf15 Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 We'd get thrown outta the league for too many bench clearing brawls ! Started on the interior for the ' 62 Impala , just about finished it , seatbelts and it's a wrap ! '47 Chevy needs a motor and frame , getting there !
crazyjim Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Hey Doc - we live in FLA. It's Donn that lives away from us. Do kids still play little league baseball? Seems like the kids around here are more into soccer. Not me! I used to play ice hockey in grade school, high school, and college. Even went to Stan Makita's wedding in Berwyn, IL and met Bobby Hull, Mike Ditka, Glenn Hall, and a bunch of other Chicago sports figures. What a game - razor blades on your feet and a club in your hands. I only lost a couple of teeth and got quite a few stitches during my playing years. How's the weather done there? Going into the 20s here. I spent most of the afternoon covering my more valuable plants and re-timed the pool so it comes on at 2:00am. ###### cold weather!
Dr. Cranky Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 It's cold here too, and very strange weather. Who knows what the heck is going on? Okay, we can do hockey teams. LOL!
scalenut Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) I have the painting dvd , it's great I wish I could get more detail on the Don Yost model Construction 2 disc set ,,.. all I know that it covers is bare metal foil ,sanding tires and swapping motors, but is it mostly aftermarket parts driven or does it teach some scratch building techniques? at 4hrs I wish there was an index to see. or does it include the painting tutorals also ?
