dont see why your confused, looks like we just said the same thing. because a model is a subject....could be made out of macaroni...but its still a model

[corkyw123]

I guess just the way you wrote what youwrote in the other post I didnt understand what you were saying. But either way, wasnt meaning any negativity towards your post....I may be the only one confused, lol.

And vince921, I'm thinking the same (other than chassis) But the bigger scale and metal body would be a good item to "tweak"

[devildog1069]

jason you should send in your blazer

im not making bigger skills, dont worry about everyone else. just do your own thing. im prolly gonna be making two, a plastic charger, and a metal body full size

[corkyw123]

Bigger scale models arent neccessarily going to be a better advantage or anything. The main reason I'm doing the bigger metal body is because the detail (even if you dont go super crazy) would show much better and cleaner. This still doesnt mean it'll be the most creative (or creative at allfor that matter) Plus, if for some reason I dont get it finished or sent in time, I'll just keep it and go off on it for myself.

For those who may not be very skilled at models (not saying I'm that great either) just remember, for custom stuff, plastic is so mch easier totrim/modify on these small scale rides.

I'll prolly be attempting 1 of each, the bigger scale metal, and the basic scale plastic kit.

I already knew about the hydros, lowriders are the main models I used to do. I meant literally miniature bags. Would be sweet if someone made those.

well I'm out....... I was thinking about doing that myself but if I'm not the only one bet mine would look the worst. its been about 10 years since I built one

i was thinking about doing that but idk. when i build my frame ill figure that out.

[strangexhaze]

are we allowed custom show rods like this one my brother did?

or should we stick to truck theme?

i aint really going to do it. ive never built a model in my life. plus i never win anything so i dont get into contests.

[corkyw123]

You're allowed to build whatever you want. They said it can even be a plabe, boat, whatever, but staying within the automotive range will prolly get you better results. So yea, the hot rods will do just fine.

[suicidedoors.com]

i love hot rods, semis, trucks, cars anything slammed, lifted etc....

You keep throwing the "semi" hint out there. I think we're starting to guess what you're wanting to see, lol.

[S-10MASTER]

[S-10MASTER]

well forget it. Just scored two sonomas on ebay. Looks like I will be doing that. Now to find out where to get glue and shit. lol

i wanna see whatever is cool.

[actafool4187]

i think build pics should be required. that way you know somebody isn't just sending u a dubz car. or at least a mod list. you may overlook something. just a thought. it would just keep it fair to everyone

well, you are going to know right away if its just a dub city car

[corkyw123]

Just for ease for the SD guys since there may be a ton of models coming in, everyone should include a mod list anyways. It'll just help the crew see everything on every model.
