cobraman Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Just messing around with some of these cars between model projects. Needed to do something a little less time consuming. Nothing special really. Cars disassembled. I prepped and primed the bodies and the sprayed with White Lightning which comes out a cool silver color over the gray primer. I then applied the custom decals and cleared over them when dry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobraman Posted October 12, 2012 Author Share Posted October 12, 2012 Alan. The decals can be found by searching for Flamingcolors.com. They are nice decals and have several to choose from. If you order some remember that they will need to be clear coated prior to using them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CadillacPat Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 You are correct. Yes, projects on these little 1/64 DieCast can really become involved depending on how you work them. Prepping a HW body, priming, colorcoats, Decals, Clear, wheelswaps, can all become easily as intricate as box kits and good Custom Graphics alone can take a couple of days to create and size. For me, 1/64 DieCast are the perfect Model allowing all my concentration to be on the body, paint, Graphics and wheels. CadillacPat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
