  oops his arm was left in the box, however it is there. I can say that the plan right now is to use different wheels and I think I want to add gasser front suspension. |

 I had some TD Garbagetruck suspension parts, ENTEX wheels in the parts box. I dismantled a thriftstore toy to get the front wheels. |

Thanks Y'all, I have lots of ideas for this weird oh. Like I said before I would like to make it more of a gasser. I like the box art a lot and found that the model is close to the box art; for a weird-oh. I just cant stand that the model wants you to build it with the headers coming out of the valve covers, so I will change that too. I wanted a dark base coat, and went with a black  |

 Satan's face was a poor fit. However a bit of sanding and it fit well enough to not require any putty work. There is a tiny hole at the top of his head were the 3 seems meet that i will fill with a spot of glue, again not bad for a weird-oh kit. Devil is in the details.  |

That is some great creepy paint!
The side pipe placement is definitely better than sticking out the top as per the kit instructions.

Thanks Y'all!
This is a very different style of painting a model, for me. I like clean straight lines and nice bright color contrasts.
Lucifer seemed to need a darker feel.
More pics soon.

I have had some Xlarge lawncare jobs lately. Time for seeding new grass; process is time consuming but fun. Oh and its a great time to lay down gopher fence! Y'all I love digging a trench,, No Joke,,Good times!! Enough excuses, lets get back to the model!! I had the coffin all but done, when I suddenly realized, I didn't like any thing I had done to it after I shared it last with Y'all. So I am reworking it. As for Satan,,,,  He is coming along nicely. I had a bit of trouble with the horn, but thats just part of doing a Satan model, the details. Thanks Y'all for the kind words. There is a tone of talent on this site. I learn alot by following others builds. I some times feel like the youngest kid on his trike, just pumping my legs as fast as I can to keep up with you big kids on your big kid bikes. Y'all make this fun! |
