its coming along nicely.

quick question. Have to tested the foam with resin yet? the last thing you want to happen is for it to melt before your eyes. Dupont makes a foam for this but its expensive.

another thing would be to go to your local art supply store and pick up a few blocks of clay to cover your base, the advantage is its easily plyable and you can really smooth it out if you want or emboss a logo etc rather easily versus covering with filler and sanding.

why? because you are too inept to realize it's a mock-up or appreciate his attempt to do something other than the norm?

im going to cover the whole thing with foil, which im told will make it so it doesnt melt, but to be safe im gonna mix the resin a bit on the cold side

oh trust me the thought crossed my mind, i have screen in the headrests and used to have a double din w200 in the dash till someone stole it, so now since i dont have a way of playing anything or have money to buy stuff im just gonna do it like this for now but im thinking of putting a screen on the lid of the console so that it pops up

facebook is like myspace but it used to be limited to college students but recently was opened to the public, its less flashy and less customizable to keep things in on track of just keeping in touch with people. imo its the best networking site out of the popular ones but i still rarely go on it

btw the console is slowly taking shape, alomar and jahwarrior saw it in person last night

i just finished the rear section and one side, i will start glassing as soon as i finish the other side



the line in the front matches the body line

AHHHHH im the HULK!!!
