Talking Re: Concept Sidewinder Engine build!

The white lines are not to be there I fixed thim.

Heres somthing you all who don't open your doors, to make your door and trunk,hood line look more real fill them in in black by using Black wash. for all of you who have a Rustall kit use No. 2 black and some Fabric paint called FolkArt to make the wash darker this is just the same thing I used on the door panels.
First without any filled in lines. Then with the lines filled in.



This will help you make your model stand out more and if you do it right on some types of models It makes your doors look like they will open up.
About the (Soda cans) I did this on my bed so the back ground is Red sorry for that, it makes the aluminum look like brass it's not just aluminum. See I ran out of styrene tubbing and all I had in theat size was aluminum tubbing you still can use styrene it's better and the work go's by faster. first Tube type & size:


These are things your going to need to do this:

Now ones you have measured the size of tubbing, make a cut line use your pipe cutter(do this 6 times) for a full pack.

sand off the edges some times there sharp.


now that you have both sides sanded off and have a full 6 pack paint the can holder Fl-White (I made one more can to show you tow diffent styles of can Co.s:



For the straw I used DM Ing. wire
Now fill in the tubbing with what ever type of fill you want from Testors to Tamiya it's up to you. I'll be back to post the painted images on the can later to day.


OK no one wants to post so I have to just add to this thread.
About the Soda I used tamiya Red Clear Testors Fl-White,Silver for the Coca-Cola logo wile looking a an image of a coca can for placemint of the image. Remember paint the can holder Fl-White. Tell me what you think on this one, now I'll put up some cola can for some of you who mite want to make some for your selves.







Cola Images for one and all.







The next images are of the me making fake Carbon Decals for the drive shaft and making pullys and belts for the engine. I'm going to rap this thing up soon.
First I found the images of Carbon Fiber I need for the decals and cut out all the images and tapped them together then, I Made a copy of all the tapped images on to Testors decal paper and then sprayed them with the bonder and let dry over night. Placed the new Decal on the Drive shaft and put Tamiya Clear and let Dry. To make the decal darker i used tamiya Smoke clear.







I know I know why didn't I use the ones from Scale Motor Sports well I wanted to but the Company has moved and is not up and running well yet so I need to go on with this project. Well now I know that the hole thing (the Decal stuff) Works so I can make other stuff with it.
NOW for more Engine work. First I made some A/N Fittings for the Oil cool can and oil sump pump when I made the Soda can how to for Kyuuketsuki. Now I need to put pullys on the engine I lost the kit ones I'm glad I did (lost them) that is the one I made up from old parts work out well tell me what you think.








MAN!!!!!!!Kyuuketsuki STOP LEAVING CAN AROUND!!!!!!



I made pully belts out of masking tape:










MAN what's with all the cans?


If you keep leaving half full cans laying around some things is going to go rong (It did)
I went to lunch and came back and found this-

!!!!!!MAN!!!!!WHAT!!!!!THE!!!!!@#&&!!!!! Do you know how much that Engine cost now, I'm going to have to rip the block down and start all over MAN!!!!!


All of that was just for fun. To make the Coca spell I mixed Tamiya Clear Red & Smoky, a little more Smoke than Red ok.
Next I going to have to make a Radiator yep I lost that one to. "LOL" Good thing that, I know how to make stuff. I'm going to use some fans' from ethere a Corvette or Camaro. I want that two fan look on the out side or the front of the radistor. I'll be using Brass Mesh, your going to like this one. (Let me know what you thing so far on my work).

(Kyuuketsuki)-how did you make the 6 pack can holder? White_r34-(the can holder come from Detail Master you can order DM stuff from Hiroboy It's in a kit called Interior Junk #1 stock No. #2380.
also, did you hand paint the individual cans? Yes it takes some time but I did it. painting the words was the hardest. You will need to use a No. #18/0 fine line detailing paint brush.
