Old Coyote Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 ... being built for a community build project on another forum .... my attempt at replicating Gary Hazen's "Panic" AA/FA
crazyjim Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Looking good. I love those old fuel altereds.
Dr. Cranky Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Great subject matter, I love the way it's turning out.
Draggon Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Looks great so far. Cant wait to see paint and decals, that was one of my favorite altereds!
Old Coyote Posted February 13, 2012 Author Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) Where did you find deacals for the altered? Slixx has them ......... better hurry though, I'm sure they're going fast Edited February 13, 2012 by Old Coyote
Kustom Rodder Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Looks really good so far nice detail.
W-409 Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 This is cool project, Altereds are great and this paint scheme on that Altered looks very good. You did great job on the engine detailing, and it looks very good overall. Needs to get one Winged Express kit some day.
Old Coyote Posted February 15, 2012 Author Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) ... after the third trip to the purple pond, I think I finally may have found my painting issue .......... something must have changed in the Krylon primer formula that the hobby lacquers (Testors and Tamiya) just don't like ........... after going into the Castrol Super Clean, the body was totally stripped of all primer with a Paasche Air-Eraser ........... then came two coats of Duplicolor Lacquer Primer and then two coats of Testors Classic White Lacquer The rear axle has been shortened, all tires and wheels have been glued on, the wheelie bar stabilizer rod has been installed, and the Simpson decals have been placed on the shoulder harness straps Now we need body decals, chute pack and mount, chrome on the firewall, and throttle linkage and we're pretty much done with this beast Edited February 15, 2012 by Old Coyote
