Modlbldr Posted December 21, 2020 Posted December 21, 2020 I just finished this one this morning (#12 for the year). This one took a few years to get across the line and I'm glad to finally have it completed. The body and interior was sectioned about 1/8 inch. 56 Ford headlight buckets molded in. Used Lazy Modeler flame stencils and three colors for the flames. Many other major and minor alterations. Thanks for looking. Later- Quote

Still have a lot to finish on it. Later- Quote

The masks work really well. Very simple to use. The only trouble is ensuring that you get them placed where you want them the first time. Later- Quote
