Sadsack s 50's Proline truck

[vintage tone]

Hey everyone,
here s a link to Shaun s lid.
I will translate it to english within the next couple days.
IN person it looks almost black at night and the flames really catch the light nicely. Ther s a lot of metalic and pearl highlights and shadow work in them so they don t look plain and boring.
Can t get that to show on pix , like holographic paint if you wish , it s a pain to take a good pic of.
All the trims and chromes are painted, it looks far better than stickers imo ( fun masking lol )
Next i d do an el camino with a skulls graphix probly and there s a racing one on the stove for Pope NJ

That s from a French forum, realy cool forum too btw, loads of great trucks on there including 6X6 and 8X8. So scroll down to see the process and the finished lid !

Nice work tone

 

[MikeK1981]

Looks sick man! What kind of paint are you using for the chrome? I tried a "chrome" paint from a spray can a long time ago and it did not come out good at all.

 

[vintage tone]

there are several ones for the chrome.
It s a chrome / mirror paint from http://www.alclad2.com/lacquer_colors.html. My favorite so far. If you do not have an airbrush i believe they also come in rattle cans now from Spazstix
