Hot Wheels and Matchbox Customizing Thread

[Vallone]

I've finished one more DD last week but unfortunately my custom wheels ended...

 

[Emmcee]

Go the Mark Webber delivery truck, hell yeah.

 

[Emmcee]

Does anyone have a r31 skyline "complete" they would like to part with?

 

[R5]

The truck doesn't fit the livery (then again, the F1 car doesn't fit the livery...) but even still it's nice!

P.S- which car are you basing it off?

 

[Emmcee]

Number two Redbull was Mark Webber. 1 is Sebastian Vettel as he is defend world champ, Webber was 2 and now Daniel Ricciardo is three. There is no 2 this year.

 

[Vallone]

This is the decoration for Mark Webber's #2 Red Bull. Thanks, Emmcee!

 

[Emmcee]

No worries mate. Being Aussie I love Mark Webber, who has won in Brazil,Interlagos, what twice now? But now it's Ricciardo all the way, man he has done well. Love the truck.

 

[Vallone]

These trucks are fun. There's a guy who does many different theme dacals for them (including these ones) and he has a nice catalogue. I think I can't attach a pdf here, is it possible?

Yes, you can attach PDF's to your post.

Webber wasn't #2 at RBR in the Bridgestone years...

That is exactly what I'm referencing here, not who and what, because I already know that, but why not a Pirelli sticker, to be factual?

 

[Emmcee]

Yeah that's true. He was 6. First time he was 2 was 2011 and it was Pirelli then, so yes your correct.

 

[Vallone]

Perhaps they run out of Pirelli, just like happened with me and my spare rubber tires, hahaha!!!

Relax, it's just a hobby to have fun!!!

Here goes the DD's catalogue in the attached file. If someone wishes, his e-mail is in the document.

More like the pirelli's exploded lol. Yeah I know, just some knowledge storming. Reguardless your trucks look awesome bro.

 

[Emmcee]

Wow those, decals are sick. Love the Rossi ones and of course all of Ayrton's

 

[R5]

Yeah, the truck looks great, but I just can't get over the sticker. First thought was it was supposed to be the manufacturer from the trucks time but had to just scratch the itch with that.

 

[Vallone]

Thanks for your words, bros!!!

The name of the guy (manufacturer) is Marcelo and if you wish you can quote my name when/if writing to him. He used to make personalized decals, so you can change some details. But have to check his availability.

Please, no trucks with Barbie's decals here, ok? lol

Emmcee, Senna's Mc Laren and Rossi ones are my next victmins...

Have fun!!!

Edit button.

 

[Emmcee]

Lol saw "," that lol.

 

[Emmcee]

Been abit quiet around here, everyone must be busy lol. Anyway here's a supra I just finished.

 

[Vallone]

Liked the golden finish. Golden paints have being a problem to me, what brand did you use?

 

[Emmcee]

Just a cheap aerosol then a clear coat.

 

[Nessy]

Managed to get round to putting some undercoat on the Escort, not entirely happy with it but it'll do.

How much of the surface is stock bodywork again?

 

[cfun]

Hey all, just thought I would post up a couple of the little die cast projects I've got on the go at the moment.
The Red Supra monster truck is complete - my son loves it!
Matt Black pick-up is also complete.
Nissan GT-R was just a wheel swap as I thought the body work was nice enough.
Honda NSX Race car is a full strip, repaint and wheel swap - trying new paint and airbrush before painting this one.

Also got a few Monster truck shells that are stripped back for customising along with an Evo 8 and a few others.

Have to say that some of the customs I've seen around and on here are so far beyond what I expect to ever be capable of, but I can hope.

Cheers,
Ant

Those are castings I'm not familiar of. Who makes that NSX and Supra?

 

[cfun]

They are the cheapest of cheap - it doesn't even have a brand stamped under it. The Supra, NSX and Pick-up are all of the same brand and all came with the same wheels which as you can see from the NSX, were clearly not suitable for the castings!

 

[Emmcee]

I find heaps of cheap brands have models hotwheels and matchbox don't make, use quite a few if them.

That Supra is much more refined than most of the Supras I've ever seen.
