| Coleman 100qt cooler
I just thought I'd post some pics of my cooler for you guys to see. I couldn't sleep last night so I broke out the styrene and glue and came up with this. Here is a picture of the 1:1 And here are some crappy pictures of mine On my Yota Its not the level of some of the masters but its not bad for a first try at 2 am Thanks for looking! |

| Thanks It turned out decent. thanks! The plastic I used came from a tray i found at the local dollar store. I picked it up just for that reason, the texture really comes in handy sometimes. |

That looks awesome!!! I got me some styrene today too but my LHS didn't have any tenax. Will regular model glue work???

The whole back of your rig looks awesome. Now it's time for a scale hi-lift. |
