There's speakers and a games console in some of the fujimi mini truck style wheels, Its the ones in the less colourful boxes that have the extras and some times they dont say on the box (unless thats what the japanese writing says)

I have heaps of Jap wheels and a couple of low rider jap utes, might just go hunting.. Thanks man |

Getting better and better. A big sun roof coming up also? You can't have a limo without allowing the riders to foolishly stick half their bodies out the roof of the car , while in motion, waving their arms back and forth, and screaming while they hold a bottle of cheap champagne....

With all these suggestions guys, i'm gonna have to stretch it a bit further....  No sunroof Joel, the roof was the biggest problem with sagging as it is, but i might leave one of the centre openings as a window maybe. |

Made some panels for the centre windows, and got the base silver down. Now the fun can begin.... PAINT smileys-painting-009432_zps0b513ffb smileys-painting-009432_zps0b513ffb smileys-painting-009432_zps0b513ffb  |

Oh Yes, the paint, the paint!!! Sorry to disappoint mate, i looked at the silver, the body was NOT AS GOOD as i had wanted, so i have lightly blocked the silver, and added some more primer. I'll wait till that dries, then block it back some more and throw another layer of silver, and see what it looks like then. It can be a long process sometimes. |

I understand. Seems like there is always something in the model building process that doesn't go as planned and changes have to be made. Whatever you decide to do will look good on the finished product.

That is looking real good. Almost looks like it needs a set of 100 spokes under it now though..

Post by DeeCee on Aug 22, 2017 2:50:11 GMT -7
Thanks D, cheers Bruce... 100 spokes, if i had some big ones i would, the DZ's look too tiny, but i have a plan . Which is more than i had on the paint, i did a little bit more, but don't want to over do it, and have to start again. Besides, it's freezing outside, as you can tell by what the paint is drying in front of..   Now, time to pull the finger out and get the engine etc done. |
