So have you lowered the roof?

Chop = lower the roof.

Channel = make wider (or narrower).

Section = Make longer (or shorter).

That's looking cool what colour you doing it, is it having a custom job you know flames or some super detailed airbrushed art, I can just imagine that with some wide super polished alloys.

Hi KP

If you look at the picture above you will see the paint next to the body its 'pearl lime ice' in the scrap parts I have there are 2 wide chrome wheels for the back and 2 narrow ones for the front with chrome hub caps as it is 1:16 parts are super rare. As for art work only been airbrushing for 2 months so no to that one but I have purchased some tribal art tattoo stencils might give that a go, on scrap first of course :rolleyes:

That sounds cool used to be a Tattooist (had to give up not good for the eyes used to do only free hand work and would never resort to transfers on a client)so looking forward to that idea. If you sent me some scale pics maybe I could draw some up for you if you liked, you could then print them on transfer paper and use on your model.
