Now you know how much I like Gulf racers Bob! MAN! That is one sweet repaint!! I'd race that in a heartbeat!! Freakin awesome bro!!! Love it!

On the mower, why don't you lay down some sweet paint on it - maybe turn it into a Gulf racer. Might as well have fun with it before she dies completely. hehehehehe

Sweet!:thumbsup:

Hey, is that a Tjet hot dog?

That's a good looking shade of blue Bob...I hope you didn't cry at the movies too...zilla!!! Makes them stickers pop. Can I ask the color choice??? I bought one from Ebay last week. Shipping charge was more than I paid for the car...RM

Resin, your sister must be quite popular to have all these cars named after her!! Lola is lookin' sweet!!! Nice livery choice!! :thumbsup: Vee dub bus looks great with the added crosses... And me thinks Tracy is gonna love that batmobile!! Oh, and hot mustard and sauerkraut on my dog please!!

Hey Bobzilla, Nice 46 ! That is one cool street rod for sure. Now I,m wondering should I cut up my BTTF 46 Ford and try makin more of a rod outta mine? I might have to pick one up from Mascr and try it. I gotta ask though ,LOL How the heck do you see all of those little bits and detail em out so well, LOL ? I can do it but after awhile I gotta take the glasses off and give my orbs a brake.
Don't know what yer plannin but no worries, glad to help out a fellow Hobby talker.
Nuther Joe , you too buddy! See ya

Cool stuff bob.....i can cut the grass maybe....zilla. My mower is also a hunk of junk.....hit a rock...the engine went clunk. LOL:p

Hey Yeah , theres an idea for ya Bob . When the mower quits turn it into a slot !


Nah just funnin ya

really noce color combo Bob... beautiful workmanship!

Bob, really like the 46! You gonna give it the Future treatment? The Gulf scheme is always a hit!

Rich

Rich,

Yes the 46 is going to get the Future treatment but, only after I have added the ho Monsters to it. Need to look over my guys and decide which ones to use. I think the decapitated body in pics above may get one of my Eye Ball heads on it for the passenger? Not sure yet.

Where do you get gulf decals from?
Wes

Wes,

The decals are made by Rob on Paybay...just search (ho decals) and you will find them. Same person who does the Iron Crosses on the top of the VW van and flames like on the Red Camaro I did up for PD2 a while back. He has For Sale window decals, lots of # decals and stripes and my favorite "Jerrys Towing"

That is hilarious and I am just crazy enough to do that...lol Thanks for the idea!!!!!!!!!!! Phssssssssssssssssssssssssssssst

Hey, is that a Tjet hot dog?

Not yet. Fletcher (our soon to be 5 year old son) gave it to me a couple of weeks ago and asked me to make it into a slot car for us to drive. I have this idea in my head of casting the bottom part into a bun for it some day.

That's a good looking shade of blue Bob...I hope you didn't cry at the movies too...zilla!!! Makes them stickers pop. Can I ask the color choice??? ...RM

Kustom Kolor paint by House of Kolors "Turquiose" Wally World had exclusive rights to sell it and now it is no longer available. I have an extra bottle and will post up a picture of it in a bit....PIZZA is here right now!!!

Nuther Joe

Nuther Joe & everyone else,

Thanks for all the compliments on the Gulf LOLA & will post pics of it mounted on an AFX chassis when it is all done.

Here is a picture of the other side.

http://i525.photobucket.com/albums/cc339/1970peaches/aadrake15.jpg

The Bat LOLA turbine is from an AFX Turbo Turnon. The plan is to lower the rear mounting space to lower the turbine and make a rear Batwing from scratch. All I have to do is print out a Batman logo to size and copy it onto plastic, round the edges nice & smooth and paint it red. I can't wait to start it but, it is behind some other builds right now.

Mustard and sauerkraut!!!!!!!!!! Now you are talking! I bet you like Corn Beef and Cabbage also? Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I gotta ask though ,LOL How the heck do you see all of those little bits and detail em out so well, LOL ? I can do it but after awhile I gotta take the glasses off and give my orbs a brake.
Don't know what yer plannin but no worries, glad to help out a fellow Hobby talker.
Nuther Joe , you too buddy! See ya

Tracy,

The trick is to put in all the interior detail first. Keep all the side by side colors seperate and don't worry about the rest. I go back with flat black and just cover any minor inperfections last.

Hey I am not perfect and find myself touching up all the time. If you make a mistake just relax and grab the other paint color and fix it. Another trick is to use minimal paint load. To much paint in your brush for small detail will just end up bleeding into other colors fast. I use small brushes with fine tips for small detail and larger brushes for larger detail. I also use poster putty to hold my work & constantly move the peice to get the best attack angle with my brush.

I watch my brush go into the paint bottle to control how much paint goes onto it. If to much gets on it I will dab some off on the bottle edge. You can even try loading your brush up and painting it on some scrap first to see if you have to much paint or not enough paint on your brush. Also a steady hand and beeing awake Helps alot. If you are tired then just come back another day.

I've got that Bat LOLA imprinted in my brain with red stripes and old school red bat decals on it. It is going to be a lot of fun to build. Heck I might just need to cast the rear batwing for future builds?

bob.....i can cut the grass maybe....zilla.

Wanted to tell everyone about the VW Van build. I didn't paint the bottom half and just used a Dash kit white plastic bottom.

Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad idea as the Future didn't like to stick to the large plastic area very well.

Soooooooooooooooooo I should have painted the botom white first as Future likes paint way better. Could have saved myself lots of trouble and time.

If this helps only one person then it was worth it for me to post this. :)

Bob...not painting wasn't a short cut at all...zilla

One of my favorite lines from lord of the rings...Sorry to hear of your misfortune with the future!! :cry: Being a floor wax, is it possible to shoot a coat of clear over it, or is it toast?? I will no doubt keep this lesson in the memory banks for a long time!! Good luck fixing this one..

NutherJoe

Joe,

I made it work by putting it in my multi-positioning-jig and doing one level surface at a time so, it is still soft bread.

Have never shot Future with my gun but, that doesn't mean that it isn't possible. The fact still remains that it just runs off the plastic. Maybe it is to smooth of a surface and not porous enough?

Now if you are just putting one decal on it then level it and cover decal but, large plastic areas just didn't work for me.

Bob...need to finish up a thing now...zilla

Well this is what it looks like with a chassis and now will ponder on which Monsters to attatch to this Ford. Hmmmmmmmmm the Found on road Dead thing comes to mind here...lol

Actualy this thing is a blast to zip around and realy shows up well on my black Tomy track. Yes Ed I took your car for a bit of a joy ride the other day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :woohoo:

Here is a 55 Chevy that I have on the boards of "to build after getting stuff painted before it snows". Have lots of Monsters that are just waiting for a ho ride around the track. This one is going out to Tom Stumpf when done.

http://i525.photobucket.com/albums/cc339/1970peaches/aacut6.jpg

Ed sent me this green painter dude, the double fisted Phsssssssssssst dude and the Hooters Babe (he put that on there) ...lol Ed you crack me up man. The other gal is a Homie and so is the headless Police Officer above. Homie heads work great in Dune Buggies!! I like the Homies from series #6 the best but, still need to pick up some different ones some day...you can never have enough.

The Sub Lime Green PT Cruiser is a suprise build (suprise Wes) and Win43 (Jerry) is getting the Silver PT Cruiser like the 1/1 scale one his Wife drives. No Jerrys Wife does not drive a 1/1 scale slot car (duh....) it is a real Automobile.

Painting the windows is going to be a real treat. The Sub Lime one has already seen some time in the Pine Sol Holding Tank. Why TOMY didn't give this a removeable window is beyond me (I am sure it was a cost thing).

My answer to this problem is now going to be masking off around the windows and giving these a squirt of flat black. Flat black is more controlable and will turn gloss once the detail is added and Future is layed down.

Going to say this right now...if I mess up the windows on either of these a picture of them getting plopped into one of my Pine Sol Pickle jars will be posted. Hey Pine Sol happens....but, am seriously going to try and prevent this from happening. I may even practice on a few JL cars that need to get pushed into the pickle jar first.

http://i525.photobucket.com/albums/cc339/1970peaches/aacut8.jpg

You won't believe what is coming up next. I would tell you but, it is a SECRET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bob way cool PT Cruisers. Maybe cutting the windows out would be an easier solution. Just a thought, I have absolutely no...none.....never tried it....not gonna try it......experience with this.

Nice job saving the VW bus!!! I'm glad to see it worked out!! If masking the PT Cruiser bodys don't work and they end up taking a bath, before you cut them out, try masking the windows before painting!! Use the striping tape Randy (hilltop) uses for his two tone splits on the edges, then fill the rest with masking. This will give you a clean edge, and it's easier to apply the tape to the flatter surface of the glass than the body contours. Just an idea, as I have never ever done this before either!!


NutherJoe

Hey Bob, on the PTs....
You can use wide striping tape FOR the windows. I did that on some LifeLike and lexan bodies. Just cut to fit. It's way easy.

Rich

Rich this is a good idea. I did this one time with a Hardees truck and it turned out real nice also. Thanks for the window suggestion man.

Will give this some thought.....Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm maybe?

Have like real thin Parma wide to thin striping tape. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Bob...Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...zilla

Hey Bob,
Here's a pic from an 85 Nascar series we did some years ago at Slotfather's. I did the bodies for the whole series. To save time painting them, I just used striping tape for the windows. Here's the Pontiac. I also did the Chevys, Fords, and, oh, one Chrysler.

The tape idea is good, if you can get it to lay flat on the front windshield. The front windshield has a complex curve. If you cut the windows out, fitting a piece of clear is difficult because of the complex curve, also. Might try heating the tape up first, under a lamp and stretching it. Someone mentioned black foil is available. Final thoughts get some of the Tamiya masking tape, it's great stuff. On the "Outlaw" Monte Carlo, I masked the body off and painted the windows last. A sharp blade will cut the tape with minimum pressure. Leaves a clean paint line. Keep us posted Bob...you'll figure it out...zilla. RM

The Lola is finished now and so is another thing that I have been working on. All this will be in the next Episode of the "Bob...zilla Workshop Show".

Our sons 5th Birthday is Tuesday so, it only makes sense to have a dinner party at our house today. Ginger said something about cleaning up the house...oh dang! :( (Do you think that I can sneek downstairs without beeing noticed?)

Bob...Next weekend Fletcher gets a kid party...zilla

Nice lookin '55 Bob! Are those wheels painted or is that red aluminum wheels?

You could always use the black bare metal foil too. I've used it on some resin customs in the past with good results. :) rr

Welcome back to another episode of the "Bob...zilla Workshop Show".

This Mustang also came in Eds box to me. I masked this off earlier tonight with some 6mm TAMIYA tape down the hood line and covered the rest in masking tape. The trick here is to mask it off so you can remove the tape easily right after spraying.

Still constructing Eds Creatures for inside the 46 Ford. The passenger will be steering the car.

Also included in the package were 1 red with metal flakes & 1 orange casted Corvette "A" production bodies by Dragula that need to be painted with the AFX style stripes. Eds idea not mine...lol Hope I can do it & will give it my best shot Phssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssht...

Lola #1 is done

Added some smaller decals to the Lola to complete the look & few HOOTERS decals just seemed like the right co-sponsor here. Also didn't even have to paint the helmet this time around as the stock colors were just right.

The rear engine tube detail was done with a very fine tip black sharpie marker. The tip fits right in and if you get any black on the edges of the pipes just lick a toothpick and wipe right away.

I let this thing sit for 24 hours after the decals were applied and then hit it with a brushing of Future. With all the small decals I didn't want to dip it because, they could fall off (has happened to me before) and would be floating around in my tupperware bowl for me to go fish out.

If one of the decals moves while brushing just carefully move it back into place and move on...easy shmeasy!

Have a bunch more Lola builds to do after I finish up a bunch of other things first. The Bat Lola for ScottD961 will be the next one and a yellow Jasper Lola after that.

Mr. Hilltop Raceway inspired me to build a Clone Jasper Powered Shadow a while back and that led to a couple more Shadow builds. Then an Image of a Yellow Lola poped into my head recently. I love this place and am totaly inspired by other peoples builds here on Hobby Talk. It is like the Domino effect....click, click, click.....

Thanks for the compliments on the Gulf car and looking forward to doing more Lola builds. Need to keep on chuging along with some other projects before Lola and I can hook up though.

It is an Aurora Mach 1 Mustang T-Jet body with no cuts...oooooh yeah! . It is done. Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh don't give Ed any more ideas...it is done. lol

What happens to it is that it gets sent back to Ed after I finish up the 46 Ford and stripe the Vettes. Ed gave me some fun stuff in trade.

Bob...check this one off my list...zilla

Zilla!! awesome job on them!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Wes

XracerHO,

Thanks for the inspiration for this one from your build of the British Thing (will find it an link it here). I knew my little German Sand Van was no match for your 50 cal mounted on the roll bar and got right to work building my own Thing.

http://i525.photobucket.com/albums/cc339/1970peaches/aabc1.jpg

Had another Home Hitler (was a Police guy from series #6) and drilled his head, put a plastic coated wire in the hole & gooped it into place. Casted another body and turned it around for the gunner Homie (series #6 Ice cream dude) with a hat chop and mustache removed. Added a few scars also and painted both of their hats German gray.

The gun is only a 30 cal. but, it is 1/32 scale so, in real life it is like a 60 cal. :D I super glued it in to the rear unpainted plastic convertible boot before doing the detail work.

http://i525.photobucket.com/albums/cc339/1970peaches/aabthing3.jpg

http://i525.photobucket.com/albums/cc339/1970peaches/aabthing2.jpg

Gave this thing a bath in a Rust Wash. The gun was painted silver and used a black wash to help bring out the detail in it.

The Jerry (win43...lol) cans are from a JL pullback Baja Bug dye job gone bad. I just snipped them off and trimmed them up. Everyone knows the Germans have lots of gas...Phttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttth

http://i525.photobucket.com/albums/cc339/1970peaches/aabthing5.jpg

http://i525.photobucket.com/albums/cc339/1970peaches/aabthing6.jpg

Everything was painted (except for the German Dudes) on this so as to make the Rust Wash look right. Plastic surfaces don't look right with a wash. Kinda like a cheap Dollar General toy if you will.



This was just a fun project to do...again thanks XracerHO for the Thing build idea. We both just kinda bounced off of each other on this one.

Later on I will camouflage the cannon and see if I can take a picture like you did (Loved that pic) with palm trees and post it up in the Customs thread.

Bob...God Bless our troops...zilla

OOOHHHHHHH (BEEP), I am (BEEP) speechless!!!!! It's SOOOOOO AWESOOOMMMEEEEE!!!! :eek: :eek: :eek:

BOB ! Me? In trouble ? C'mon are you kidding me or what? LOL Nice vw thing !

Wow Bob! Holy Cow! You know how much I love Gulf colored cars but that thing came out awesome!!! HOLY SWEETNESS!! Man if I had half the talent in my little finger I'd be all over doing one, but I'm sure it would never come close to your skills bro! FREAKIN AWESOME!!! (Insert drool pan and mop here)

And the VW Thing came out great! What fantastic detail! GEEZ! This was what I'm talking about! You can take something so unappealing and make it a masterpiece! Imagine what you could do with a turd! LOL!!!! JUST KIDDING!! HAHAHA!!

PD2:thumbsup:

Good stuff Bob.... Guess you've been keeping pretty busy!!! nd :thumbsup:

Bob,
The detail on the VW Thing is great and the rear tire compund tells me it is fast. All your work is Awesome: 55 Chevy, Gulf Lola and others. Have to keep looking & rereading the posts! Keep them coming!
Glad to bounce ideas with each other. The Jerry cans a neat idea! Sometimes you just have to have some fun and make an unusual build ..RL

Yo 'Zilla,

That Lola and the Kraut Thing may be your finest work to date IMHO. Each one is an intricatly detailed beauty in it's own right!

Obviously your in the Zone right now....ride the wave!

Yeah, what Bill said!!! :thumbsup: A+ with extra brownie points!!! Awesome job in the detail department!!!! Both the Lola and the German Fighter are top notch work!!! Channel Z rules!!! :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Great looking custom, Bob! :thumbsup:
The hours of planning and labor really show. The details are perfect! :)

I took a gray dude and did some changing around a little bit. The Oracle (a character from a older Ghost Rider comic book) on the left started out as the gray guy on the right.

This Oracle Muscle Bound guy is going to be driving Eds 46 Ford from the passengers seat. Had to break his arm to make this happen and he only let out a little screeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeam!
