ok, I admit I'm a little slow, but I reread your opening post three times, can't figure out how you did that wood grain. It looks great! Can you give us a more indepth description of your methods. I have always liked woody's, but could never get the wood to look right. Thank you for sharing this project with us.

Thanks guys :D

This is first try at doing something like this, I was at a model expo earlier this year where the guy who make the woody decals was. I got the chance to talk to him alot about his stuff.

i bought some of his decal sheets and went home and started right away, inspired by his work

a link to his site with some info and pictures.

When I first started looking at your car I thought " Wow , this is looking good ! " . Then I got to the wood grain and I couldn't believe it !

Awesome job !

Thank you for very nice comments :)

Yes the woodpanels is decals, they are tranparent so you have to do some preshading before putting them on. The framing is just oil color (burnt sienna i think) done with a chisel type paintbrush.

Then some clear orange here and there to create some variations(is it spelled right?)

This my first try at this so this is a learning project. I have more woody`s i`d like to build: 1941 Ford, 1948 ford, 1953 ford and 1960 Mercury Colony Park
