Re: dodge L 1000
Hey crawler, it already turned out amazing! Now we're just going to see how much better it will look! Don't worry about painting, you can always re-do it! :D Have faith builder! :D

Re: dodge L 1000
thanks for the encouraging words! what paints do you guys use? and do you all use airbrush or just spray cans? im thinking airbrush will be the way to go as the spray cans seem to make the paint to thick..

Re: dodge L 1000
Looks great! I was wondering what happened to this awesome scratchbuild. Glad to see it's not fallen through the cracks. Keep it going. I love the details and brass work.

Looks great, I love the brass details. Are you going to slide the front axle forwards a little?

Re: dodge L 1000
well went fishing and it sucked...... wish i would have remembered to take home the cab......well about 2 in the morning I decided to tear down the chassis for paint and to fix the front axle placement. did that and now im having a heck of a time figuring out where to put the steering servo...I will post some pics of the cab and the chassis tear down later on..

Heres what I have been dealing with.. cut this plat up yesterday, but not sure where to go from here? but I will make something to cover up the servos so they dont look so intrusive. http://i180.photobucket.com/albums/x...rigs/005-1.jpg got to come up with a way to go from here to here,, I have a steering block thingy from a tamiya big rig that I can get intheir as well..just have to make it all work together.. http://i180.photobucket.com/albums/x...rigs/006-2.jpg And heres the paint before clear coat. Its going to look alot better once cleared and if it doesnt I will just go for the weathered look like I was going to do in the first place. http://i180.photobucket.com/albums/x...rigs/001-6.jpg http://i180.photobucket.com/albums/x...rigs/002-6.jpg also got the front axle placement all figured out! and it was well worth the effort. http://i180.photobucket.com/albums/x...rigs/003-5.jpg |
