Or you can use a sophisticated fish tank bubble maker to help with that,

Keep at it, I have seen some very impressive at home anodizing.

Okay, I know I joined this site to revisit my youth, see the awesome rides that everyone is building/has built, get ideas for my own. But I swore to myself I would only build runners. So I start taking apart the team car I picked up, gonna clean it...

Painted up a spare Yokomo body over the weekend. Decided to try to replicate the scheme on my XX-4 and X-5.

Last post

The bitty design is definitely the best I've used. I tried the proline but it was chunky and this style xacto #10 works good for the compound curves.

Been using #16 blades but a rounded blade does seem to make more sense for curves. I'll...

I know everyone hates the Bulldog bodies and i did too for a long time but it started to grow on me and I now I kinda like it. Enough that I bought one for my B4.1 racer. The cab-forward design isn't that bad, it's been on RC cars forever so it's...

I'm no good at painting as I don't have the patience but always find the blending/fading the trickiest bit with cans as the spray patterns are too large.

When I saw the Jconcepts Ranger Hit the Market I ran out and grabbed one. It sat in my garage for a bit until I got the nerve to try and paint the darn thing :oops:
Now I'm terrible at painting and I don't have access to an airbrush, so this Rattle...

NICE! :D

Very cool.

I hope they bring more retro trucks out!
How about a Dodge Power Wagon or Li'l Red Express? We've seen enough Chebbies and Furds. I haven't even seen a late-model Dakota.

A Walker Evans Dodge would be a perfect...

So my brother's stepkids needed a new bumper for their Honcho and I decided to try and make one from scratch. It ended up looking better than I expected, so I swapped the Rubicon bumper to the Honcho and put this on my brother's Rubi. It's my first...
