Sorry for your loss Brian. I am also happy for the improvement on your wife! 🙏 Great idea with the balsa wood. looks great. I really like your pointer. Hey, wait a minute...That didn't sound right.🤣 I really need to try mixing paints. What a stunning paint job Brian! You are a very good painter, minus the goof.🤣 That always happens to me too. I agree with you about going outside of your comfort zone. Don't be afraid to try something new.👍✌

I am so far behind on these USACC updates, I will never catch up. That color is absolutely gorgeous and very deep. Great job, and keep us updated on that awesome work you're doing.
Didn't know about your loss, so please accept my condolences for your family's loss.

[@FuelsModels]

Thanks Marc I appreciate that. Well I doubt I’ll get mine done by the end of the build off but it’ll get done.

[@MasteringTheModel]

@@FuelsModels At least you're going to get it done. I still have mine from last year that is unfinished, but I do have a good excuse for it though.

[@Bruces-Eclectic-World]

She looks awesome Brian! Love that paint job. I like Createx paints.. The dash turned out great too. I did not use the gauge lens either, I used modg Podge on my gauge decals. My wheel house thing on the build was painting and weathering along with patina/rusting. It was all new! Yes there was some custom parts made too... 🤣
LLAP 🖖

[@FuelsModels]

Awesome. Yeah I’m a big fan of Createx. Great thing is if there’s a problem with it it strips in minutes. I haven’t even picked up a bottle of mod podge yet but if it works it works. Thanks

[@Bruces-Eclectic-World]

@@FuelsModels I do think you could build a kit with modg podge if you have the time to wait for it to dry... Lol I glued all the bumpers and tail lights on the 57 nomad wagon and 50 Ford Showboat, so it works great and as a bonus, it you mess up it pulls apart and cleans up with a tooth pic... Lol I glue all my glass in with it too. Give it a try Brian... Later!
LLAP 🖖

[@FuelsModels]

@Bruces-Eclectic-World yeah I know a lot of people use it for things like that especially windows. I just kinda fell I love with 5 minute epoxy early on because in does dry very clear and strong and will clean up with rubbing alcohol.

[@Bruces-Eclectic-World]

@@FuelsModelsWhat kind is it? Ya can never have to many glues.. 🤣
Later lunch time! 🍕
LLAP 🖖

[@FuelsModels]

@@Bruces-Eclectic-World 5 minute epoxy. I’m pretty sure even hobby lobby has it in the model section but I got mine at HobbyTown

[@terrysanders8092]

Looking good ❤

[@FuelsModels]

Thanks

[@GetYourModelOn]

That finish is awesome, can you explain again how you achieved the black highlights.

[@FuelsModels]

Thanks. Well, originally, I thought I was just gonna wind up with a dark red candy, but in this case it gave me somewhat of a murder candy look. What is a murder candy? That’s when you take say a red flake suspended in a clear base, applied over a black and then covered with a black candy. And only in direct light, would you see the flake other than that it would look black. I’d call the black highlights lucky in the way I layered the paint. Which essentially was black, then charcoal metallic, and then the candy red and that gave me that black shadow affect. I’m guessing that the flake in the metallic reflects like differently and direct light.

[@kdkustoms]

Man that is nice Brain!!!
