Hawk312 Posted May 19, 2013 Author Posted May 19, 2013 Wow that has got to be the best finish i have seen on a model ! How did you get it so smooth ? Lots of sanding and lots of rubbing. Seriously though, my procedure is still the same as it was when I wrote about it in issue #150. If I remember correctly, I started with 2000 grit, followed by 3000 grit, and then rubbed it out with 3 grades of compounds.
Badluck 13 Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 Holy geez oh my wow!!!! that is sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!,awesome paint and love the flame work,the details just keep popping out at ya......
Skydime Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 If I hadn't seen the checked base and the disassembled interior, I'd swear it were a 1:1 show truck. And I'm still not 100% sure! Beyond excellence.
lazlow Posted May 22, 2013 Posted May 22, 2013 Wow that's a work of art, those ghost flames are the boom. Laz
