which one? i mean can you link me there?

Wes



Wes,
Here's Patto's link and I've included his pic. Also if you get decals from him, I generally clearcoat the sheet when I get them. Although these are for the Cuda, I'll make the work on the Charger. I hope. :)

Just wanted to make sure you still had my home address so you'll know where to send that Camaro. Sweet! What is that color?

The Color is a Testors Silver Chrome trim base, then Kustom Kolor Transparent Orange with a light coat of Kustom Kolor Candy Apple Red with Robs decals and Parma Silver pin stripe tape that is all sealed in with several coats of Future....Wheeew! This one you have to see in person because, a picture just doesn't show all the depth. The silver base paint actually shows through the Orange and the red. Candy Paint Rocks....Yeah Baby! :)

Yeah send me your address as it is still in my garage but, where I don't know. Will write you in my Name Saver Address book this time.

I got another Camaro and yours will be sprayed in Transparent Orange like that 57 Suburban you liked. You do want it Bob...zilla-ized right? :D

Bob...it is gonna be a while...zilla

Nice looking Camaro there Bob...my list is getting longer...zilla. The only thing I would suggest you do different is, change the adddress on the mailing box...37135...RM

Beautifil color scheme Zilla! Works for me!

BTW....how did Bree get Joez brains?

Thanks Bill and PD2 will be getting it real soon. Just letting the clear coat dry and will put in the tinted window this weekend. Didn't want to finger print this up....patience is a virtue.

Joez traded Bree part of his brains for some Z:oTZ. :freak:

T-Jet,

Please PM me your address so, I can mail this Maroon 57 to you for the Tyco Pro parts.

These 57s were both casted by me and get to keep the Black Jack one to race...Whoooo hoooooooooo!! It is fun to race something you made from scratch.

I put AW front and rear bumpers and an AW window in the Maroon one. Need to make a window mold for this 57 panel casting soon.

Black Jack has a driver and a passenger that are Horrorclix figures that have been decapitated and Gooped on. Even the read hair-doo is some red Goop. I hand painted the red dots on this old 60s 1/24th scale model decal to get some color coordination going on.

Randy your not getting the Camaro man so, forget about it. The adress label stays as is.

Bob...Love these MEV rims with the Wierd Jack white walls...zilla

Coool :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Well here is a picture of the Camaro mounted up with the tinted windows.

These new flame licks and Iron Crosses that Rob just came out with are very nice for Metallic and Candy colored cars! Will be getting some more of these (like I don't have enough decals already) soon!

RR is getting one of these done up in Transparent Orange in trade for a Special Project body he sent me and then that is it for my Camaro builds.

Bob...Some day I will paint flames on also...zilla

Nice work BOB !

wow... :eek: :eek: awesome looking camaro!!

Wes

Cool paint jobs as per the norm.... Great decals too Bob!!! :thumbsup::thumbsup: nd

Bob...This Camaro is too fast for my track...zilla, I gotta send it back, hope you understand. I just don't want to wreck such a beautiful car. When it came up on 2 wheels, I got nervous...RM

http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc196/kwikdeals/005-3.jpg

You can always send it to me, Randy!heh! JK

It is a beautiful car, Bob, and I am sure that PD2 will enjoy it quite happily! :thumbsup:

Hey, the Black Jack one is really cool:thumbsup:

Thanks everyone for the good words on my recent builds. The "Black Jack" water slides are from some of my Dads old decal stash that he gave me.

Randy,

That picture of the Camaro up on 2 wheels is great!

Bob...Have 1 more set of Black Jack decals...zilla

That Black Jack would make a nice xmas trade car.......lol. Awesome work Bob.

Yes I agree with Ed...a great Christmas car. I'll be looking for it in my stocking.

Cool vintage build Bob!

Not unless your stocking is hanging in my* house, Bill! :D

beautiful paint job Zilla!

My latest green machine! Enjoy. :) rr

Good show, RR!

:thumbsup::thumbsup: Looking goooood RR, nice detail work on the lights and grill. Zebra stripe adds that confidence factor, "I'm the boss"!!! Is that model car type lime paint??? I believe I saw some Model Master lime green at Hobby Lobby. RM

OOOOOOOh OFD! Thats pretty!

BTW. I like your picture grouping. side, side, front, 3/4 rear, 3/4 front

Indeed!


great work, great detail, bold color, great contrast with the black, nice chrome wheels for some bling... all in all, a very cool slot car!

That was shot with the MM sublime right out of a warmed can. Three light color coats, one clear, then two Future after the stripes and details were laid on. :thumbsup: rr

resin kit I bought off ebay... needed TONS of works. It was supposed to be for a t-jet but it sat way toohigh ion the chassis so I moved the post and mounted a gplus chassis instead. I was totally happy with this car before I clear coated it. I don't why , but for some reason the top coat came out kind of milky.
I used sme painted cloth for the rear bed cover, and the pipes came from a JL t-bucket

That's some cool running right there!!! I likes them big fendered cars!!! :thumbsup::thumbsup: RM

vj - thats one nice looking rat rod there!!! :thumbsup:

Wes

VJ,
Nice job ! Mean looker. :thumbsup::thumbsup:


Wanted to give Wes another green fix so I took a shot of these, something old and something new! :devil: rr

You are so EVIL!!!! making me drool over my keyboard again and again!! :) awesome man!!

Wes

Santa's gonna bring someone a blackjack????? Not a very "friendly" Xmas gift.....someone could get hurt.:rolleyes:

Cool truck Bob......i made another Surburban I did ....zilla

VJ--Wowza! Thats a hot looking pickup. Interesting choice of guts, since I assumed right off it was a T-Jet.

Wow!!! What an amazing thread!!! I've been on it for hours!!!! Absolutely incredible! Hi everyone! This is my first post so I'm going to hold back on pictures for now. I know how to do it but most of my pictures have to be resized and that part I will have to work on first. I am just getting started in the customizing dept so I don't have much to show yet, but I do have some ideas floating around. I mix slots and trains so the majority of my stuff is built on aurora tjet chassis and I use lock and joiner track. If you do the ebay thing regularly for the last 8 months you've probably seen one or two of my custom R/R crossings there. I also have 3 short sloppy videos up on youtube(same name as on here) showing my 4lane two track R/R crossing and some of my lighted slotcars. Search slotcarman12078 to see them. Thanks to all posters who have kept me entertained this evening!!

VJ,
Nice job ! Mean looker. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

VJ,

Love the truck! :cool: You always go one step farther with the chassis. How low can you go...how low can you go...pretty low now.

rr,

That Sub Lime Now & Then pics. :D & :D are great...Wes can hardly stand it...yeah!

slotcarman,

Welcome to the fun! Always nice to see a True Blue slot car guy join in the fun at Hobby Talk...let the crazyness begin. :woohoo:

Bob...Win wait till you see Black Jack II...zilla (not even started yet...)

Welcome aboard! :wave:

Nice Limeys RR.

scMan... Welcome!... Nice lighted car vids. We'd like to see some daylight pics too though. Get them pics resized an post up man!!!

nd

Thanks for the warm welcome!!:) So far these are the only pictures small enough to upload, and I'm but I'm still trying. :rolleyes:

Got a couple pictures resized.. I will try to take a few more tonight if he kids don't give me too big of a headache. This is one of my mini lindy creations. LED headlights, tail lights and a finicky flashing light on the roof. I am still trying to find a better way to put flashing lights on these, as the flasher LEDs require a certain miliamp input to function right. :confused: I have flashing light circuits ordered and I'm hopeful they will work. I'm not too crazy about using capacitors inside a slotcar because the risk of reversing polarity, which can make them blow up! I'm trying to stay away from bulbs due to the heat generated so I gotta do what I gotta do!

slotcarman,

That Ambulance is Great! Emergency slot vehicles are one of my favorites.

Well Thanks to Hilltop I have this crazy voice in my head that says, "Paint Shadows". This was a mix of Gold and Transparent Blue and came out a nice light green Metalic with Mullet Beer Green driver suit & rear wing. I have more Shadows. How many? Only the Shadow Knows....

Bo Duke got his ride updated when the shipment of decals arrived from Patto's. Gotta love the Sand Van man. :)

Always spray up lots of bodies in a paint session if possible. This way I can have a few quick fun decal and detail cars that are fun to do up when the time is right.....the time is right now.

Bob...Had some fun doing these quickies...zilla

Gotta go with the Skoal Bob. Looks Great! I've always been a fan of the Skoal stuff. Not that I condoan the use of tobacco in any fashion, but, .........HEY.......... Whats going on here BOB? You sure have been doing alot of Skoal cars lately!

J/K
Rich

Very nice, Bob!! :thumbsup: The ambulance quickly became my favorite, except for that finicky flasher on the roof! This one had me pulling my hair out, I had taken it apart so many times, I didn't think I'd ever get it together. This is equipped with LED head and tail lights and another finicky flasher. :freak: some day I'll make'em work!!

Bob...you'll paint anything...zilla,
Great lookers. That's a neat color green on the Shadow. Looks close to one of those 70's MOPARS colors that was usually mated with the green vinyl top. :thumbsup::thumbsup: rr

BOBZILLA!!! WHHHHHOOOOOAAAAAAA!!!!! i like them both!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! awesome paint jobs man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wow.. i am speechless!!!

Wes

Sweet stuff, Bob!.....only the shadow knows...hehehe...you have been waiting to say that for a long time, yeah? LOL

Bob! I'm with RR. That light green shadow is very different...dig it... and appeals to my green jones ...naturally!

Slotcarman, Yer working an area of our hobby that really needs help. KUDOS! Decent lighting and related gadgets are sorely needed. Even a basic diode kit for HO slotcars with which one could adapt plumb and power optic whips and acylic emitters would be great! Please give us more detail on "whos" and what you are using when you find the time.

That is exactly what I have been shooting for Bill, but the casting resin and the silicone mold making stuff always seems to be one paycheck away. The biggest issue is the need for alot of light to make the optics work with out the Rudolph effect (having the whole nose of the car glowing. :cool: I'll get it eventually..all things take time...:thumbsup:

Yessssssss, great work.
What kind of electronic do you used to work with the different track voltage up to 18 V ?.
