hello and welcome me and my cars...

[schofield]

i just kept adding to it for 5 years, i did not have any RC at the time and this was my "hobby"
how this for a blower?

here she is about 1.5 years into it

[magman]

Cool paint on the real car!

[rawfuls]

Well, hi there.

I visit the TRX forums for shits and giggles...
Kind of fun actually
But some guys are actually trying to help, but they just don't listen..

Nice paintjobs!

Specifically the rust job, but, imo, the rust job on the TMaxx looks a lil overboard..

Never really liked old cars, but that's just me, and my stupid self.

i know you form the TRX forums we were talking about the KD motors just yesterday.

i remember the name it sounds like Scooby Doo saying waffles.

tmaxx rust is supposed to be overboard as its 3 or so bodies put together. supposed to look junkyard welded.

How did you make the rust btw?

Great job on the rust work and I love the tercel with the exception of the "blower". It maybe just me and being raised around race cars but I do not like "wannabe performance", now the multi color and piercings are great! I really like the barbell and chain on the rear bumper.

I am looking forward to see what becomes of the shin guard.

the rat rod was hand painted on the inside..

and the maxx was painted on the outside. where ever the paint was thick or chipped or wrinkled is where i put the rust so the rust is as natural of a placement as it can be.

cool thanks, yeah i know about the "wannabe" factor, (like screw on tailpipes) but this is an art car and it is supposed to be over the top.

I would also think the obviousness of the fake blower makes it art and not wannabe. No one that know anything about cars would mistake it for a real blower in my opinion.

[schofield]

thank you, on a side note i probably had my picture taken with the car at least once or twice a month

[rawfuls]

Yeah schofield, that's how I recognized your name so quick when I checked the forums...

Ah, now that I see it's two bodies put together, it looks cool!

Did you JB Weld it? Or just paint it differently?

HAHA, Scooby Doo. That's funny.

I made the username quite awhile ago, it was one of my universal names, where I used everywhere.

rofl... = Rawfuls

ROFL usually means rolling on floor laughing, so I just said why not..

[schofield]

not JB weld but something similar thats why there is that silver "weld" between the to parts. to make it look getto welded.

sorry about the scooby doo comment i have two daughters that love scooby doo

[rawfuls]

Haha, the scooby doo comment is cool, I like it, I think I'm gonna have to steal that from you.

TBH, I also really DON'T like wannabe performance cars with those "cool" guys in there. But this car looks so damn funny so every idiot knows it's just for the fun and not for the wannabe performance

EDIT: You aren't an idiot, but I don't know how to say it in other words, my English isnt very good >.<

Nah, I'm an idiot! you nailed that spot on. I appreciate the details that went into the blower, very creative use of parts to make it. I just don't like the blower because I can not get past my gear head raising. ie: I'm an idiot

The great thing about art though, it is subjective by design.
