Looks great, with the exception of, the taillight panel should be black!
@georgejacob31624 жыл бұрын
They did do a few scenes with a car without a black panel in one of the later series. John Schneider said to Tom Wopat that there was something 'not quite right' about The General. It took them a little while to figure out that the back panel should have been black. The workshop guys copied a miniature model of the car. I have a miniature model of the car which also doesn't have the black tail light panel.

Nice job on the General Lee. I have a question How did you separate the decals from the paper after wetting it. Cause I'm getting ready to put one together.
@michaelkovach79735 жыл бұрын
Jonathan Garbosky Thank you! After submerging the decals in Luke warm water and prepping the areas-to be decaled with micro sol setting solution, I slid the decal off the backing with a q tip and lined them up where I wanted them to go. Afterwards I used a paper towel to absorb any excess liquid. Hope this helps.
@jonathangarbosky30715 жыл бұрын
Cool cause I was asking cause I've done one before and some how I missed up the decals cause I used warm water but when I took them off they broke apart. I'm pretty much new to this. So I'm learning on the way.

What shade of paint did you use?
@michaelkovach79737 жыл бұрын
Hi Madeline, I actually used a custom color mix for the body of the General Lee. In my Episode 4 video in this series I explain that I use two different colors. The CraftsSmart Gloss acrylic paint of Orange and Bright Red. The primary color was the Orange with a few drops of Bright Red along with some windshield wiper fluid to thin it out. Then I shot it thru an airbrush with light coats. Hope this answers your question.
