CANDY TANGERINE TO PURPLE
Hot Rod TAIL DRAGGER!!!!
This is a 1/64 scale casting.
These pics are pretty good, but, I can't stress this enough,
they ABSOLUTELY
do not do this paint justice!!
The
casting was stripped, sanded and polished slightly before any paint
was done.
This one needed a little more attitude, so, I opened up the rear
fender wells!!
Those Fender Skirts just had to go!!
Both sides were carefully matched up and after the grinding was
done, all edges were filed and sanded smooth!!!!!
And she "had" to have some Meaty Rollers, so, a VERY NICE
set of Deep Dish Preferred Mags w/rubber tires were installed!!
The axles required shortening, and were secured into sections of
brass tubing, then epoxied in place and carefully leveled so that
all four wheels contact the surface at the same time!!! A few alterations
were also done to the interior and base for these wheels to fit
at a very low level!! They roll EXTREMELY WELL and look even better
with the big rears showing in the opened fenders!!! PLUS, the rears
fill the fenderwell space up much more than the stock wheels once
did!!!!

The paint is ALL AIRBRUSHED (as with all my kustoms) PPG
and House Of Color AUTOMOTIVE paint.
PLUS!!! Alclad Lacquers!!!!
It started with a PEARL BLACK URETHANE base color, then I added
a few flames with Alclad Chrome and two coats of CANDY TANGERINE
TO PURPLE was FADED over them!!!! Once this coat was dry, the process
was repeated THREE MORE TIMES!!!
WAY KOOL FADE and LOTS OF FLAMES!!!!!!!!!
Finally, Clear was shot on in three coats making the finish VERY
SMOOTH!!!! This is SO INCREDIBLY KOOL that words fail to describe
what your eyes actually see in person!!!
NO KIDDING...... A lot of the Flames are Ghosty, and the rest will
GLOW in some lights and angles of view..not to mention that the
purple looks like SpectraFlame!!!!!!!!!!!


Then I Detailed the exhaust tips in black and headlights with
Alclad Chrome!!
