Harry P. Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 I really like how you "dirtied up" everything a bit. It adds to the realism and takes away the "model car" look and instead looks much more like a real car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasser59 Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Get that gorgeous engine in there and fire it up already. What are you waiting for? LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooneyzs Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Holy Crapola Johnny Boy!!! That is some mighty fine work buddy. I have to agree with Harry that the weathering looks great. I am digging it and need to try that technique on a build sometime. I think it would be awesome if they tires had a little bit of the white powder or a hint of the salt on them too, Not where it's caked on but just enough. And Brad is right... Hurry up and get that engine in there already.... Nice work Brother!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
