Its custom time!!! Today I took a mainline Hot Wheels made in the early 2000's and did a custom paint job using my Createx Candy2o paints. She turned out real nice, but its east to make a 66' Nova look amazing! Hope you like it!

Pantyhose stretched over your color cup also makes a good filter, if you're married or have daughters you know how fast those are tossed out for new so you always have a constant supply. Just stretch it enough to have tension but not too tight that the weave opens all the way up. It's easier to make a filter from pantyhose than cut one out of a full-size one, I know from experience. Good video and nice job at the end.

Would think quite a bit of red then little bit of black would of given the black cherry look. Watched a vid of a guy doing motorcycle gas tanks and covers. He used black then Clear coat then silver before it dried he put plastic wrap on and it made the black show through in a cool pattern he then painted a translucent candy blue came out FANTASTIC. He also did a gold and then candy red the same way. Might be cool if you could try this technique on your cars.

Some paint mixing insight. Balancing clear is pure Binder and resin. Which a lot of pure pigments, metal flakes, and mika's are missing. Pre mixed colours have a ratio of balancing clear already in them, which is why you need to mix/shake them.

Hey! Happy you're feeling better. Say, as far as customs, have you ever considered dropping the wheels and giving the car a look of competition suspension? When I was a kid we usually modified the suspension as a means to transfer the engine weight to the rear wheels. I think that would give the car a good look. I'm sorry after all that work, mixing, measuring, etcetera the car didn't come out that well. The dark red original plan sounded better. It did come out pretty nice though. Stay well.

The 1967 Nova is my all-time favorite car. The 66 is basically a twin. This one is a real beauty. The reason I became a Hot Wheels collector is I can afford it far better than resto-modding a real 67 Nova! My opinion: Don't waste any time on fantasy cars. Stick with the real ones - especially muscle cars!

@DiecastResurrection 5 жыл бұрын

I wouldn't do a custom fantasy probably ever. I have a hug pile of muscle cars to do and I'm going to keep looking for Redlines cause they are pretty neat as well. Need to do some pickups though, haven't done one yet!

The best thing about these videos besides the awesome cars, are your sound effects! By the way I think Jimmy's trailer has an upside down back door. The silver rectangle on it is probably a jalousie window and too far down ! It's a Woodland Scenic building. Retails for $74.99 , which is almost the price to buy a real one , ha,ha!

Hit it out of the park again! Too bad the Black Cherry didn't work, but hope you try it again in the future. One tip/idea I have, for the tail lights. If you want a bit of "pop" to those tail lights, paint the tail lights with a Chrome pen (molotow) first, then for the red lens use some Clear Red paint (Tamiya). Of course you would have to brush it on with a very small brush, but I know you can handle that. :-). Makes the red look translucent like a real clear red tail light. Great job my friend. Loved this episode. Glad you are back to good health. Tell Jimmy I said "What's up?"

I think black is a tricky colour to mix up with lighter colours for that exact colour, also considering it's only the second attempt with these paints, trial and error wins overall success. Once you get used to these paints I'm confident you will find the exact measurements you are looking for. The purple through the black still looks sweet and the sparkles on top are the icing on the cake, looks awesome👌😉 Jimmy seems much happier in his new abode, he just needs to find a sweet hot rod chick now😂
