Aww inspiring build and skills!!!

Serious question, are you going to take this out on the rocks, or is this purely a shelf queen?

Thanks sir. Did the shifters today. I didn't snap a picture of them, but they're done. I promise.

Thanks, I'll drive it softly. I can't see it ever really being trashed. Not when you spend a year building something. It would hurt my heart to break it.

Already have three coats of German Grey on them. Great minds...

I started trying out my paint colours today. It's a mustardy colour, and it didn't really show up right in the photos. I think my pink cutting mat throws things out of whack a little bit. To compensate, I gave them a vintage look. It helps for sure.




It needs a lot more coats and I need to fix a couple rough bits, but I'm pretty happy with it.

Ketchup & Mustard

Detectives Brock Ketchup and Larry Mustard are working to rid the streets of crime, one delicatessen at a time.

The joke, Brock hates Ketchup and Larry hates Mustard.

The tag lines always have something to do with food.

"Well, crumble me up and put me in a salad!"

Oops, forgot to post up this picture yesterday.



I've made a decision on tires, and these aren't them, but they're reasonably close for mockup purposes. Axles are currently being narrowed by that bear driving a little car.

Why aren't you using those tires? Going for skinnies?

That's one of the best scale interiors I've seen! The scale carpet and fabric on the seats is just right! Hot Damn this looks great!

Simply put, look at any scale model car website, they use this stuff all the time.

I like yurts.

Some good stuff coming!

I got back on the chassis today. A very nice friend sent me back the axles he narrowed. They really help me get the look I was going for.



Got another coat of paint on today as well. Not sure I'm still loving this colour. Feel like it needs to be more tan and less mustard. I need to start tackling the windows and body detail work.



Tires are also way too small. Back to the old ones.
