chunkypeanutbutter Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Hey there! This is my first ever post! I don't like the normal everyday model car, usually (except for my Datsun 240 kit ). Thusly, I make rusty cars, as opposed to shiny ones. And here's one, a 1970s K4 Blazer. I made the Bondo out of patching plaster with red paint added until it looked almost right (I know it is not perfect :/) and I painted it with model railroad paints. The junk is quite assorted, from a TV, to paint cans, eight batteries, and some other stuff I forgot about? Opinions? Suggestions? Your rusty builds?

Teddy J. Tannehill Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 My Dad used to build model airplanes he also liked trains he said it was more difficult to age them. I think the same can be said for cars and trucks. Welcome aboard. I am looking forward to seeing more of your "Barn Finds". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
